The workflow shall be: a) while writing get .bib wherever it is easy and fast for you (e.g. Scholar), b) before publication, refine them with doi2bib - hoping to make 90% of job done and then c) finalize manually at the source. | |

Even though this works most of the time, if you want to ensure a flawless bibliography in your excellent paper, you cannot get around doing some manual legwork. | |
| Nov 29, 2021 at 15:14 | comment | added | Wolfgang Bangerth | "This cannot be automated, because too many bib entries that can be found on the internet are inaccurate." -- This isn't wrong, but it's a question of where you go find these entries. If you go to the right source -- namely, the DOI record of a paper -- then most of the time you can actually get a reasonably good bibtex entry as well. | |
