Citing references

Post by tarektarek »

Hi all,
I have a problem which I really do not understand since day one I started to learn the Latex, when I cite my reference, not all the attributes in that reference appears for example say I copied the Bibtex for a paper

Code: Select all

@INPROCEEDINGS{Recent_TNT, 
author={El Salti, T. and Nasser, N. and Taleb, T. and Al-Yatama, A.}, 
journal={Communications (ICC), 2010 IEEE International Conference on}, title={Enhanced Topological Graphs for 2-D Sensor Networks}, 
year={2010}, 
month={may.}, 
volume={}, 
number={}, 
pages={1--6, Cape Town, South Africa}, 
}
when I use \cite{Recent_TNT}, not all the attributes are shown (e.g., the name of the conference).

Recommended reading 2024:

LaTeXguide.org • LaTeX-Cookbook.net • TikZ.org

NEW: TikZ book now 40% off at Amazon.com for a short time.

And: Currently, Packt sells ebooks for $4.99 each if you buy 5 of their over 1000 ebooks. If you choose only a single one, $9.99. How about combining 3 LaTeX books with Python, gnuplot, mathplotlib, Matlab, ChatGPT or other AI books? Epub and PDF. Bundle (3 books, add more for higher discount): https://packt.link/MDH5p

This is because you are using fields that don't go with the citation type. @INPROCEEDINGS does not use the "journal" field. You probably want booktitle instead. For a list of which fields go with which type of entry, see here.
