TeX - LaTeX Asked on April 11, 2021
I want to cite multiple authors, but only name two of them in the document, because the others are not relevant in this context.
So how can I do this?
I basically just want to add "et al." at the end of the bibliography entry.
However, if I follow the best practices for biblatex and do this:
@online{exodusIssueHttpAnalysis,
author = {Jan Friebertshäuser, {@U+039b} et~al.}, % EDIT: don't copy this, the comma is used wrong here!
title = {Documentation does not state how to run the dns/http analysis},
subtitle = {{Issue {$sharp$}45}},
titleaddon = {Exodus-Privacy},
organization = {GitHub},
date = {2020-08-26},
urldate = {2020-08-26},
language = {english},
url = {https://github.com/Exodus-Privacy/exodus/issues/45},
}
It does get mixed up though and I end up with this:
I know I could make it a "company name" and prevent BibLaTeX from interfering with it all, by placing them in {}
brackets, but this is not how it should properly be done, I guess?
Especially, as I just want to add that there are more authors – all other things BibLaTeX can freely change, like the order of the authors or what it does etc.
In the author
field of a bibliographic entry, the keyword and
must be used to separate individual authors. The author
field knows of another keyword as well: others
, which serves to trigger the routine that outputs "et al" in the citation callouts (if it hasn't already been triggered).
Hence, I believe that you should write the field as
author = {Jan Friebertshäuser and {@U+039b} and others},
The curly braces around @U+039b
are probably not strictly necessary. However, they might guard against the +
character being somehow misinterpreted.
