1. About

The Bibwiki Add-In for Microsoft Word helps you accessing BibTeX bibliographies. It works with every BibTeX file so you don't need Bibwiki to use this Add-In.

  • The Bibwiki Add-In shows you all bibliographic records of a BibTeX file.
  • You can search for a specific record.
  • You can insert the BibTeX key in your paper with a single click.
  • You can access the corresponding Bibwiki entry with a single click.

1.1 How does it work?

With Bibwiki you can easily generate a list of references out of a paper. The document just have to contain all cited BibTeX keys.

  1. Write you paper. Add a the corresponding BibTeX key after each citation, like this   "As Thompson (1980 [[Thompson:1980]]) stated, ...".   [[Thompson:1980]] is the BibTeX key. The brackets aren't necessary but recommended. The Add-In helps you finding the correct BibTeX key.
  2. Copy and paste the whole paper into Bibwiki's "export from document" form.
  3. Click "export".
  4. Copy and paste the generated list of references into your paper.
  5. Remove the BibTeX keys from your paper with the Bibwiki Add-In. The above sentence will become   "As Thompson (1980) stated, ...".
