Same author same year bibliography issue












5














So I want to submit a paper to Biostatistics journal, which has its own Latex template and bibliographystyle{biorefs}. The problem arises when I try to cite two different papers of the same author and the same year. Such references are:



@article{kwok1999moderating,
title={Moderating the outputs of support vector machine classifiers},
author={Kwok, James Tin-Yau},
journal={IEEE Transactions on Neural Networks},
volume={10},
number={5},
pages={1018--1031},
year={1999},
publisher={IEEE}
}
@inproceedings{kwok1999integrating,
title={Integrating the evidence framework and the support vector machine.},
author={Kwok, James Tin-Yau},
booktitle={ESANN},
volume={99},
pages={177--182},
year={1999}
}


I have tried using cite and citep, but both of them produce (Kwok, 1999,?) as a result, instead of (Kwok, 1999a,1999b) or (Kwok, 1999a,b), which is what I want to obtain.



Any idea of how to solve it? Thanks a lot.



Edit: Here you can find an example in Overleaf (link).

    (1) welcome, (2) it might be an idea to provide a link to the template and the bibtex file as at least the biorefs.bst is not included as standard in LaTeX

This seems to be a bug in biorefs.bst.



Since it is usually a very bad idea to modify files without renaming them, do rename biorefs.bst (e.g. newbiorefs.bst) and change line 1079 from



label.year write$


to



sort.year write$ 


Like this:



FUNCTION {output.bibitem}
{ newline$
"bibitem[" write$
make.abbr.label write$
"(" write$
sort.year write$ % <-- here!!!
")" write$
make.full.label write$
"]{" write$
cite$ write$
"}" write$
newline$
""
before.all 'output.state :=
}


Now the output looks like this:

You should absolutely contact the maintainers about this.
