[Tex/LaTex] Cite @misc website without year

citingnatbib

I want to cite some websites (some organisation ones like the NOAA etc.) but I do not want to show any year against them. This is what I am doing:

MWE:

%\RequirePackage{filecontents}
\begin{filecontents}{ref.bib}
@misc{pngea,    
  author = "{PANGAEA}",    
  title = "{PANGAEA}. {Data} Publisher for {Earth \& Environmental Science}",    
  year = "2019",   
  url = "https://www.pangaea.de",    
  note = "[Online; last accessed January 2019]"  
} 
@misc{ncdcpc,    
  author = "{NOAA NCDC Paleoclimate}", 
  title = "Paleoclimatology Data, {National} Climatic Data Center,
     {National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration}",    
  year = "2019",   
  url = "https://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/data-access/paleoclimatology-data",  
  note = "[Online; last accessed January 2019]"  
}
\end{filecontents}

Best Answer

Since you're employing the natbib citation management package, you could set up "citation aliases". E.g.,

\defcitealias{pngea}{PANGAEA}

Then, if you type \citepalias{pngea}, you'll get "PANGAEA".

A modified MWE:

enter image description here

\RequirePackage{filecontents}
\begin{filecontents}{mybib.bib}
@misc{pngea,    
  author = "{PANGAEA}",    
  title  = "{PANGAEA}. {Data} Publisher for {Earth~\& Environmental Science}",    
  year   = "2019",   
  url    = "https://www.pangaea.de",    
  note   = "[Online; last accessed 22 January 2019]"  
} 
@misc{ncdcpc,    
  author = "{NOAA NCDC Paleoclimate}", 
  title  = "Paleoclimatology Data, {National Climatic Data Center},
            {National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration}",    
  year   = "2019",   
  url    = "https://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/data-access/paleoclimatology-data",  
  note   = "[Online; last accessed 22 January 2019]"  
}
\end{filecontents}
