How would that work for paperback references? That would be a nightmare. If an author cites 20 different sources, verifier needs to checkout 20 sources at the library (if they are even available)
- probably_wrong 2y agoWhat I meant was: if the body of your paper references seven other papers then your References section should be exactly seven papers long. Otherwise you could sneak an unrelated paper that way and hardly anyone would notice.
