TeX - LaTeX Asked on July 7, 2021
For the shown MWE I am using Lualatex (Babal: Default language is Arabic) + Biblatex (Numeric style for citation and bibliography style), I have the following issues:
The bibliography and citation styles are set to numeric, however, the generated bibliography does not give a numeric bibliography.
Language used for reference numbering is not unified along the whole document, it is generated according to the "langid" in the reference file, I use "langid" to sort references according to their language, so how can I select the language which is used to set reference nmbering?
When placing numerous citations within the same "cite" command for example "cite{ref1,ref2,…..}" not all citations are generated
Sometimes the citations are too much, so in order to avoid confusion I put each citation on a seperate line within the same "cite" command, also in this case the citations are not generated properly.
Also, in addition to generate numerous citations with page numbering, I used the "cites" command, yet this is also not working.

Citation numbering appear according to the "langid" in reference definition, how to unify output language to a chosen language??
newline
English numbering cite{Browning1983}
newline
Arabic numbering cite{Sharoni1969}
newline
English numbering cite{bob}

Issue displaying the second reference upon putting each citation on a separate line
cite

With
defbibenvironment{bibliography}
{list
{}
{setlength{leftmargin}{bibhang}%
setlength{itemindent}{-leftmargin}%
setlength{itemsep}{bibitemsep}%
setlength{parsep}{bibparsep}}}
{endlist}
{itemleavevmode}% add leavevmode to align English bibliography items RTL
you are defining a bibliography environment that does not use numeric labels. This looks like a definition that would work for style=authoryear
or style=authortitle
, but not for style=numeric
. For a numeric style you want to take
defbibenvironment{bibliography}
{list
{printtext[labelnumberwidth]{%
printfield{labelprefix}%
printfield{labelnumber}}}
{setlength{labelwidth}{labelnumberwidth}%
setlength{leftmargin}{labelwidth}%
setlength{labelsep}{biblabelsep}%
addtolength{leftmargin}{labelsep}%
setlength{itemsep}{bibitemsep}%
setlength{parsep}{bibparsep}}%
renewcommand*{makelabel}[1]{hss##1}}
{endlist}
{item}
as a basis, so maybe
defbibenvironment{bibliography}
{list
{printtext[labelnumberwidth]{%
printfield{labelprefix}%
printfield{labelnumber}}}
{setlength{labelwidth}{labelnumberwidth}%
setlength{leftmargin}{labelwidth}%
setlength{labelsep}{biblabelsep}%
addtolength{leftmargin}{labelsep}%
setlength{itemsep}{bibitemsep}%
setlength{parsep}{bibparsep}}%
renewcommand*{makelabel}[1]{hss##1}}
{endlist}
{itemleavevmode}
works.
The biblatex
option language=auto,
switches bibliography entries and citations according to langid
. If you drop language=auto,
(and thus go back to only the default language=autobib,
) only bibliography entries change according to langid
. Citations will use the surrounding language settings.
I could not see this issue in the MWE.
biblatex
reads citations as comma-separated lists. Spaces at the beginning of list items (i.e. after commas) are dropped, but spaces at at the end of items (i.e. before commas) are not dropped. This means that when you say
cite
{
Browning1983,
Sharoni1969
}
biblatex
looks for citations called Browning1983
(which is found) and Sharoni1969
(with a space at the end, which isn't found). You could use
cite
{
Browning1983,
Sharoni1969%
}
to escape the implied space, but I really can't recommend this. I would recommend a slightly more compact input like
cite{Browning1983,
Sharoni1969}
which will definitely work.
The correct syntax for multi-cite commands like cites
does not use semicolons between citations.
cites[30]{bob};[40]{bob};[60]{Sharoni1969};{Browning1983}
should be
cites[30]{bob}[40]{bob}[60]{Sharoni1969}{Browning1983}
Similarly,
cites
[30]{bob};
[40]{bob};
[60]{Sharoni1969};
{Browning1983}
should be
cites
[30]{bob}
[40]{bob}
[60]{Sharoni1969}
{Browning1983}
