Summary

prep-man

This package provides functionality aimed at

  • exporting records that need to be prepared,

  • fixing the errors manually (with the relevant error codes and explanations)

  • importing the prepared records

  1. Export the md_needs_manual_preparation cases

colrev prep-man

Exports the records_prep_man.bib (containing the records) and the records_prep_man_info.csv (containing the error codes).

  1. Manually fix the errors

Manually change the bib file (based on error codes in csv file) Error code descriptions are available here.

  1. (Re) import the records

colrev prep-man

Notes:

  • There is no need to change the colrev_status fields (it will be reevaluated upon import)

  • The colrev_status field can be used to override error codes

  • It can also be set to rev_prescreen_excluded (or the entry can be deleted)

  • When ENTRYTYPEs need to be corrected, change the ENTRYTYPE, and run colrev prep-man twice (remove the BIB and CSV file before the second run). This will reapply the field requirements for the new ENTRYTYPE. For example, if a record needs to switch from article to inproceedings, reapplying the field requirements will create the booktitle field and indicate that the journal, volume, and number fields are no longer needed.
