Add "Select all" and "Select none" checkboxes, when presenting list of BibTeX references to import
Closed, DeclinedPublic

Description

Author: jodi.a.schneider

Description:
There is one checkbox per reference. This is a usability problem when there are a large number of 20+ references (which is common).

The user must check a box beside each BibTeX reference they would like to import.

Since BibTeX files often include a large number of references (20, 50, or more), "select all" and "select none" checkboxes are needed.

Appears the repository was not migrated when Creative Commons (which was hosting it for ancient reasons) migrated to github.

I put it up at https://gitorious.org/acawiki/bibteximport and edited https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:BibTexImport (pending change).

Thanks a lot for that!

Closing as declined as the Wikimedia-AcaWiki project has been archived long ago and as there has been no activity plus a lack of maintainership.
