1 year ago Hi, the comma is regarded as a citekey character by the reference map( thespaces, [, ( or * are the characters that are not regarded as part of the citation key). This was decided because people also use , as a field separation character. In your case [@Psillos1996ScientificRealismPessimistic , p. 313] will detect the citation key(notice the space after the citation key). But I can see how it is not an ideal solution. In the future version of Reference Map, I will add a setting for assigning characters that are not part of the citation key.

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. The problem is that Reference Map does not detect pandoc citations with citekeys followed by a page number.
Example: This is recognized
[@Psillos1996ScientificRealismPessimistic]but not[@Psillos1996ScientificRealismPessimistic, p. 313].Describe the solution you'd like Since it is common to cite a specific page from a citation, it would be very useful (indeed essential, in my usecase) if Reference Map was able to detect citekeys that are followed by page numbers like so [@citekey, p. x].
Describe alternatives you've considered The Pandoc Reference List plugin is capable of detecting citekeys despite page numbers without issue, so it should be doable, perhaps by borrowing some code from there.
