Reference Checker Skillv1.0.2

An academic author preparing to submit an English or Chinese manuscript uses the skill to exhaustively check every reference for authenticity, accuracy, and formatting consistency. The skill validates DOIs/PMIDs for international sources and searches Chinese titles in CNKI/Wanfang/VIP for Chinese sources, producing a per-reference audit table.

A research team conducting a systematic review uses the skill to verify all references in their synthesis, ensuring no fabricated or mismatched citations are included. It processes long reference lists in sequential batches, continuing from the last checked number.

A graduate student or thesis advisor uses the skill to audit a bibliography containing mixed English and Chinese sources, including dissertations, standards, and webpages. The skill applies different verification routes by source type and language, flagging duplicates and formatting issues.

An editorial assistant at a bilingual journal uses the skill to rapidly verify references in incoming submissions, reducing desk-reject risk and reviewer burden. It generates a structured audit table for each reference and clearly reports which references remain unchecked.

A research integrity officer uses the skill to investigate suspicious references in a manuscript under review, identifying fabricated or mismatched citations. The skill exhaustively checks every item and documents traceability for both English and Chinese sources.

Universities, research institutes, and libraries subscribe to the reference-checking tool as part of their research support services. The skill integrates with manuscript submission workflows and provides unlimited audits for affiliated authors.

Individual researchers can use a limited version of the skill for free, with a cap on references per month. A premium plan unlocks exhaustive batching, priority database access, and advanced formatting reports.

Publishers and peer-review platforms license the skill via API to automatically verify references during manuscript submission and peer review. This reduces editorial burden and improves citation integrity at scale.
