#1579 A long author list is forced to be truncated when DOI used

[oxon]

A long author list is forced to be truncated and "and et al." is added for a DOI entry.

This paper has more than 1000 authors https://doi.org/10.3847/2041-8213/ab960f but when I copy and paste the DOI link in BibDesk, the auto generated author list is trunctaed. This should be avoided.

Abbott, R. and Abbott, T. D. and Abraham, S. and Acernese, F. and Ackley, K. and Adams, C. and Adhikari, R. X. and Adya, V. B. and Affeldt, C. and Agathos, M. and et al.

We get the bibtex data from the doi site. We just get what we get. This is
not a problem we control.

JSON data returned by DOI contains the full author list. it would be great if BiBDesk parse the author info from JSON.

curl -LH "Accept: application/rdf+xml;q=0.5, application/vnd.citationstyles.csl+json;q=1.0" https://doi.org/10.3847/2041-8213/ab960f

doi2bib also returns the full author list, please see

I found a different header to get the full bibtex with all the authors. you may test this with tomorrow's nightly build.

[oxon]

Thank you very much. I will test it.

The nightly build 20200626 looks to be working OK. Thank you very much for the update. By the way, when the author list is very long, the list cannot be maunally editted later in the "Title" field because it truncated in the text field.

[Christiaan Hofman]

Yes, I also noticed that. Unfortunately this is a problem in the system. I
will report it to Apple.
