Converts the current page to a BibTeX entry

Download

Install Compare

Generates a BibTeX entry for the currently opened page. The Add-on tries to extract author name, title and publishing year from the website. If mulitiple matches are found for the extracted values, a click on the currently used one will open a menu with options to choose from. Version 1.0 introduces a template system but requires Firefox 48. (The default template is not plain BibTeX but BibLaTeX because the latter makes it easier to cite a webpage)

Extension safety

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

CurrentPageToBibTeX does not require any sensitive permissions.

Risk impact analysis details

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Browser Add-ons, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

CurrentPageToBibTeX is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this add-on.
