Wikidata-powered citation lists with citation.js
I don't get enough time with the kids as I would like, but if your son is doing interesting coding projects it makes that a lot easier. One project he is working on is citation.js, a JavaScript library to edit bibliographies. It has become really powerful and totally awesome! We all hate formatting bibliographies and that every journal has its own format. LaTeX and Citation Style Language have done wonders here, but all should even be simpler. As an author I want to be able to just give a DOI and that should be enough.
Or a Wikidata entity identifier.
And citation.js makes that last thing possible, and I spent some time with Lars to implement this for my homepage:
This is more or less what I had before too, but then everything hard coded.
