Prompt
I am preparing a BibTeX file for an academic project.
Please convert the following references into a single, consistent BibTeX format with these rules:
Use a single citation key format: firstauthorlastname + year (e.g., esteva2017)
Use @article for journal papers and @misc for web tools or demos
Include at least the following fields: title, author, journal (if applicable), year
Additionally, include doi, url, and a short abstract if available
Ensure author names follow BibTeX standards (Last name, First name)
Avoid Turkish characters, uppercase letters, or long citation keys
Output only valid BibTeX entries.

What this prompt does

Use this to clean BibTeX files for academic projects. It separates journal papers and web tools into article and misc entries, avoiding Turkish characters and long keys.

Model comparison

ChatGPT is strongest in format, concision, and accuracy. Gemini is detailed but seriously violates the output constraint, while [C] is missing.
