The apalike-german package: an author year style for BibTeX.md

The apalike-german package: an author year style for BibTeX

Objective

I made apalike-german.bst because I was forced to use plain old BibTeX in conjunction with apalike.bst but I needed German localization. It is simply a copy of the original file. My editions concern the following:

Installing

Create the directory {TEXMF}/bibtex/bst/apalike-german, move apalike-german.bst there and update the file name database.

Usage

First let me point out that if you are not forced to use plain BibTeX it is much better to rely on the biblatex package, preferably in conjunction with Biber. Thus, you gain much more flexibility for your references. If you took this into account, call \bibliographystyle{apalike-german} as usual after \begin{document}.

In case a numerical year lacks you can use an expression like “n.d.”:

@MISC{undated-item,
  ...
  year = {o.J.},
}

The dots are kept, but only four digits are allowed!
