Frequently Asked Questions
Does this resolve the citations to full metadata?
No. It only extracts identifiers — fetching titles or authors would require external API calls, and this tool stays fully client-side.
How does it dedupe?
Identifiers are compared case-insensitively and deduped per type, so the same DOI appearing five times in your text shows up once.
Why didn't it find my arXiv ID?
It expects the modern YYMM.NNNNN format. The older subject-class IDs (e.g., math.GT/0601001) aren't matched by the current pattern.
Is my text sent anywhere?
No. All matching happens in your browser.
