Another suggestion: make this an external text file. It makes it much easier to add to, edit, etc. Also allows easier syncing of the list between multiple machines.

Wildcards?

Any chance of allowing wildcards in there? So if I want Google, Googler, Googled, Googleplex all to be ignored, I can just enter "Goog*"?

Way to force capitalization of proper nouns in sentence case

Is there a way to force capitalization of proper nouns when using sentence case for titles? A large amount of my references have company names in their titles, which need to be capitalized. Is there a master list that can be used to accomplish this?

New request: Auto selection on creation

I like how when you import a reference, it is automatically selected in the database. Is there a way to do that when you create a new reference from scratch? After closing the reference window, have it automatically selected so it can be copied, previewed, etc.

Importing from Google Scholar

Has anyone used the new Google Scholar feature that allows exporting of citations?

The preferences for Scholar allows the creation of link to import citations in these formats: BibTex, EndNote, RefMan and RefWorks.

Any suggestions on how to do this?

Thanks,
