Consider custom Fields in imported BibTex files

Hi,

some people like me have set up their former Bibliography software to include some custom/special fields. When migrating to the great CiteULike, these apparently seem to get lost.

I suggest to import these and display them in a foldable "container", e.g. called "extra", where separately foldable items for each custom field would appear and show its contents.

Best, LikeUCiter


P.S.: An Example from my JabRef BibTex files: see custom field, such as quotes, rating, ... etc.

Thanks for this idea.

CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions. The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
