Re: [O] org-ref in action
I am not familiar with jabref, but assuming it stores the entries in a regular bibtex format, and you have the bibtex file open in emacs, with the cursor on the entry you want to make a heading for, you run M-x org-ref-open-bibtex-notes. That creates something like an org-bibtex heading in your org-ref-bibliography-notes file, but it is probably a little different. I haven't used org-bibtex, and I didn't try to make it exactly the same. If you try it and tell me what is missing, I can make it be more like org-bibtex. The format there is not critical to me.

It is like the difference between org-contacts and bbdb. They both serve similar needs, but with different data sources, and different ways to think about it. We might be able to figure out a way to specify a backend that would allow the independent features to work in both though.

It depends on the style. I use the biblatex-chicago style. I grepped the sample bib file supplied with the package to get a list of entry types[fn:1] and fields.[fn:2] And this represents only a subset of the possible fields! See also the variable bibtex-biblatex-entry-alist in bibtex.el (shipped with emacs). Looking at the code for bibtex2html (for instance https://github.com/backtracking/bibtex2html/blob/master/bibtex.mli) I see that entry types are strings, so if there are issues, I guess they would happen in the generation part but not in the parsing part. You are right. I see that one can specify a style file for parsing bib files and biblatex does supply a biblatex.bst, e.g., bibtex2html -s biblatex However, this still produces errors (and a blank html file) when I run it on a larger bib file that pdflatex/biber parses fine. I was able to get it to run without errors on a small carefully culled subset (a book and an article). Even if biblatex2html did read biblatex data, its output, I believe, is limited to bibtex styles, which cannot handle more complex formats. I'm very ignorant here: from my understanding, bibtex2html does not care about bibtex style, it just takes bibtex data as input and produces html. Is the problem that some entries are ignored, Yes, as well as many fields. or is there something deeper that I'm missing? For my particular use-case, the problem is that it formats the bibliographical data incorrectly. This is because biblatex relies on LaTeX macros (rather than bibtex) to format the bibliography. Thus, any utility that relies on bibtex to format bibliographies not work with biblatex styles. This, by the way, is why biblatex was is such a boon for those of use working in the humanities: bibtex was *never* sufficient for humanities citations. E.g., the biblatex-chicago style outputs a bibliographical item for a book like this (with org markup added to show emphasis): Wolloch, Isser. /The New Regime: Transformations of the French Civic Order, 1789--1820s/. New York and London: W. W. Norton, 1994. bibtex2html produces this: Isser Wolloch. /The New Regime./ W. W. Norton, 1994.

Re: [O] org-ref in action
Thanks for your answer on that everybody. My apologies for my poor grammar asking where people discuss such questions in real life. What I really had wanted to say, what I meant, was that I was wondering what professions utilize such workflows and where they discuss it primarily because the topic does go beyond LaTeX alone. My usage of such a workflow is pretty lightweight, and I've never had anyone to talk to about it because in my field generally no one cites their references.

Off topic: How do people choose today? Why choose bibtex over biblatex? Thanks to inertia, bibtex still has a number of users in the sciences, since it was originally designed for scientific citations. In the humanities, however, bibtex is a non-starter, since biblatex offers much more flexibility. The good news is that bibtex and biblatex use the same database format, so it's easy to transition from bibtex to biblatex. However, there are other options, such as CSL.[1] Where do people discuss such questions like this in real life? I'm not sure I understand your question. Could you clarify? I simply meant that everyone will have a different workflow/system for storing and managing citations. E.g., some will prefer to store bibliographical data in a zotero database, others in a single bib file, others in multiple bib files, others as properties in org headlines, etc. I think one can make a conception distinction here between citation management (i.e., how one stores bibliographical data) and citation processing (i.e., the software one uses to export that data to some output format). There are many, many formats (mods, bib, etc.) and tools (biber, bibtex, csl/citeproc, etc.) for formatting bibliographical data. In an ideal world, one should be able to 1) process bibliographical data from multiple formats; 2) choose from hundreds of citation styles; and 3) format citations for multiple backends. I am not suggesting that org-mode should directly support all these things, but its default methods of handling citations should not get in the way of using external tools that provide such flexibility. For instance, pandoc (an immensely impressive piece of software!) accepts bibliographical data from numerous sources and processes it for multiple outputs (html, plain text, docx, rtf, etc.). By contrast, ox-bibtex.el runs citations through bibtex2html, which is pretty much limited to the old-fashioned bibtex formats. Ironically, ox-bibtex.el invokes pandoc to convert from html to plain text, but only after it has already used bibtex2html to process the data.

For the record, after correcting an error in several of my bib entries, bibtex2html -s biblatex is able to parse a biblatex database without error. However, the resulting html is empty. Thanks, Matt

Re: [O] org-ref in action
Some features could be merged, but there is an important difference in that org-ref uses bibtex as the backend database, and reftex for searching, and org-bibtex uses org-mode headings as the backend database, and tag/property searches (I think). It is like the difference between org-contacts and bbdb. They both serve similar needs, but with different data sources, and different ways to think about it.

Yes, org-bibtex.el generally precludes the use of reftex to enter citations. I get around this problem with a custom perl script, which runs automatically in the background, extracts all org-bibtex data, and deposits it in a central bib file. We might be able to figure out a way to specify a backend that would allow the independent features to work in both though. I think the key in any possible feature merge is to remember citation management is idiosyncratic. I.e., org-mode should offer helper functions that enable individuals to customize their own workflows rather than systems that dictate a particular workflow (e.g., a single notes file) or presuppose a specific export backend. For instance, org-mode citation tools should not assume that users will export via bibtex/bibtex2html rather than, say, biber/biblatex or pandoc (which now has a powerful, format-agnostic citation filter).[1] Best, Matt Footnotes: [1] http://johnmacfarlane.net/pandoc/demo/example19/Citations.html

Off topic: How do people choose today? Why choose bibtex over biblatex? Thanks to inertia, bibtex still has a number of users in the sciences, since it was originally designed for scientific citations. In the humanities, however, bibtex is a non-starter, since biblatex offers much more flexibility. The good news is that bibtex and biblatex use the same database format, so it's easy to transition from bibtex to biblatex. However, there are other options, such as CSL.[1] Where do people discuss such questions like this in real life? I'm not sure I understand your question. Could you clarify? I simply meant that everyone will have a different workflow/system for storing and managing citations. E.g., some will prefer to store bibliographical data in a zotero database, others in a single bib file, others in multiple bib files, others as properties in org headlines, etc. I think one can make a conception distinction here between citation management (i.e., how one stores bibliographical data) and citation processing (i.e., the software one uses to export that data to some output format).
