How can we improve RefWorks?

You've used all your votes and won't be able to post a new idea, but you can still search and comment on existing ideas.

There are two ways to get more votes:

  • When an admin closes an idea you've voted on, you'll get your votes back from that idea.
  • You can remove your votes from an open idea you support.
  • To see ideas you have already voted on, select the "My feedback" filter and select "My open ideas".

  1. Continue repeating citation suffix throughout text

    The disambiguation system for multiple references from the same author, same year is to add a suffix (a, b, c, etc). However the suffix only appears the first time the reference is cited. This creates confusion when the references are cited multiple times in the text as it becomes impossible to know which references future citations refer to.

  2. Different sort orders with different reference types

    The Cite Them Right 11th edition Harvard style should have films sorted in the reference list by director, not title. But this is not possible because different reference types cannot have different sort orders. Could that be changed?

  3. Citation in text with continuous notes (ISO 690) used in books

    I would like to see RCM (Refworks Citation Manager) incorporate the option to use numerical citation with continuous notes, which is widely used in books. As permitted by Standard ISO 690

    "The numbers inserted in the text (in parentheses, brackets or superscripts) refer to notes, numbered according to the order of appearance in the text. Notes may contain references to cited resources. If there are several citations of the same resource, they will be given separate note numbers. "

    Now it isn´t possible

  4. Font sizing issue even after corrected. New citations resort all intext citations to 11, even the already correct intext ones.

    When putting a new citation in every citation resorts back to font size 11 changing the entire document (thesis chapters).

    Improvement: Once a citation is in a sizes correctly, keep it so. this should not be resized everytime a new citation is added.

    Point: pre-updated refworks didnt have this issue, so this should have a solution.
