Hello Allan, Stefan and others,
did you already come to a conclusion regarding this cite topic?
Did you try to run the bibtext extension for Sphinx?
If so, please update the documentation guidelines.

I haven't tried it. One difficulty is that each docstring needs to be
self-contained, i.e., it must include its own

I hope we reached agreement that the documentation
should use reST citations and not reST footnotes.

Numerical keys will clearly *not* be consistent.
The same key will refer to different citations
on different pages, and key width will not be
uniform.

How do you propose getting the citations into the docstrings? Each
docstring needs a copy of its references, and those references may be
to specific pages. I

Hello,
I really like the discussion here.
Originally I was just pointing out a problem.
Proposing a good solution requires some discussion.
The problem has also changed because of a suggestion
that the docs should be usable for book compilation,
and I am very uncertain how that is

If I understand, you are using bib4txt.py to do this?
Yes, I use bib4txt.py.
The extension just runs bib4txt.py over all documents to extract the
citations. Then it creates the reference file.
The bibtex file is also converted to ReSt using your tools.
But since the bibstuff needs the citation

Please ensure that, whatever you come up with, it is *very intuitive*
for the writer to enter the citation data, or we will quickly lose
citations, and possibly writers. For example, I would not have them
type in BibTeX entries, but rather provide boxes where they can

For citation keys, what's wrong with good old author-year format?
Most scientific journals use it (Abt 1985).

Well, best to have the full functionality. These things are intended
to be both book components and stand-alone pages. Citation formats
are a religious war anyway.

The docstring standard at

Thank you for your feedback. Yes, this is a problem. In a way,
RestructuredText is partially to blame for not providing numerical

I do not agree.
I cannot think of any bibliography tool that uses

This would really involve the following.
Create a searchable database of citations
and an interface for adding to it.
Unique keys would be generated by your
algorithm of choice when an entry is added.
Authors would be asked to use only references
