Add cleanup "Remove empty fields" #911
Comments
Discussed with @simonharrer : What about making this the default behaviour of our BibtexWriter? Is there any reasonable case where we want empty fields? |
👍 for "remove by default". |
It has been the default in old versions, but at some point, we distinguished between The only use case I see is manual editing of fields not available in the UI. Refs #454. I think, however, this is not used often. |
@tobiasdiez This is now done by default and can be closed?! |
Apparently, empty fields were always deleted. At least the test added in #974 passed without any further modifications. |
As suggested by oscargus it would be nice to remove empty fields (only containing whitespace) as a cleanup step.
