I am currently working on a document (a thesis), and on one line I am required to make more than 100 citations in a single \cite{}
command, and there is no way around this particular piece of phrasing.
Currently, my references are listed in citation order. However, many of the references in the \cite{}
command are called before the 50-long citation note. The net result of this is that rather than grouping the citation in the text(e.g. 111-161), I am left with a string of numbers which shoots off the right hand side of the page.
There are a few of these cite commands in the paper, and there is overlap between the references. Citations cannot appear twice, so grouped citations do not help.
The solution which would suit me best is if there was a way to sort citations such that they 'clump' in an idealised fashion based on which groups they appear in the latex document. Does anyone know of such method, and how to implement it?
I currently use Bibtex, But am more than happy to transfer to Biblatex or similar.
\nocite
early in the document to force an effective order without the citations actually appearing in that position?
