#apa7 — Public Fediverse posts

One task that staff & students outsource to #llmchatbots is transforming #BibTex from a publisher website or library catalogue into particular academic citation styles. To save resources, we can look into alternatives like Chris Proctor's pybtex-apa7-style #Python plugin for #APA7. I have adapted his plugin in a script with widgets for reuse in Colab:

Maybe this is of help to others. MLA & other citation styles have no pybtex plugins yet, but this may still change. 🤞🏼

I'm happy that for a change the most stupidest shit I've read this week isn't simultaneously also something dystopian but only some dude asking how to quote a dream/hallucination according to APA 7th for their research paper 🤣

🧠📚 Been deep in the weeds refining my APA 7 student paper template—fully accessible, screen reader-friendly, and powered by LaTeX + Makefile automation. It’s designed for blind students, accessibility advocates, and anyone who wants a clean, reproducible academic workflow. Note that it doesn't use the apa7 class since that wouldn't allow the PDF to be tagged for accessibility.

✅ Includes:

• Automated PDF builds with BibLaTeX
• Submission and status reporting targets
• Sample references. Bib
• Screen reader-friendly README

Built and tested across Raspberry Pi, Fedora Remix, and openSUSE with WSL integration. If you’re navigating academic publishing with accessibility in mind, I made this for you.

APA 7-fråga:

Borde det inte finnas en formatmall i Open office som gör att jag inte måste gå in och kolla allt som
- radavstånd
- typsnitt
- sidnumrering (längst upp till höger, svårt att få till i OO)
- bildtextformat
...osv

Någon som vet? Ska in med en miljard uppgifter känns det som.

I was recently asked about the "best" system for citing references on social media. Many citation types assume that end notes or a reference list section exist. While it has flaws, I think #APA7 using narrative citations (American Psychological Association, 2020) or "extended" inline citations including material often found in the reference section make sensible options.

However, unless you're writing an academic paper, who cares? Just make it readable and consistent within a given post!

#KI-Tools in der #Wissenschaft zitieren - wie soll das gehen? Die Zentral- und Hochschulbibliothek Luzern bringt Beispiele aus der Umgang mit dem Zitierstil #APA7 - die dort allerdings noch ncht festgeschrieben sind. Es ist noch Bewegung drin. https://blog.hslu.ch/ikwerkzeugkasten/ki-tools-zitieren-apa-style/
