No parentheses should enclose a reference if it is at the beginning of a sentence #785
Comments
@kamicut, if this is difficult, could you scope out the LoE earlier in the sprint? |
@wrynearson We identified three types of potential cases of adding reference(s).

There are multiple ways we can tackle this ticket as well as #784: In order of difficulty (in my opinion, but I differ to @frozenhelium on frontend difficulty)
These have varying degrees of complexity and flexibility. (1) and (3) require some manual work on the side of the user, but are a little bit more flexible. (2) would be less flexible. |
Thanks @kamicut for the summary! I think historically (before any of the DS members current working on the project joined), the idea was to value flexibility and to give the responsibility of sorting the specific details and edge cases to the user. It's a very deep rabbit hole to try to account for all of the different use cases required by users, and citations/references seem to be a pain point for users. |
@bwbaker1 we're going to meet next week and deep-dive into the AGU citation rules to help us decide how to move forward with this, because this is more than just a question about parentheses |
@wrynearson I discussed the issues related to in-text citations with Aaron.
We can reassess this after the one-year maintenance period based on user feedback. |
