ADS paper service usually provides the EID entry as well as the pages entry in their bibtex files. Both entries generally contain the page number of an article. Usually this doesn't seem to cause any issues. However, when using \fullcite{}
from biblatex both entries are printed resulting in duplicate page numbers in the citation. Is there a way to suppress printing the EID with \fullcite
?
Full example:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[backend=biber,]{biblatex}
\usepackage{filecontents}
\begin{filecontents}{\jobname.bib}
@ARTICLE{eisenstein2011,
author = {{Eisenstein}, D.~J. and {Weinberg}, D.~H. and {Agol}, E. and
{Aihara}, H. and {Allende Prieto}, C. and {Anderson}, S.~F. and

{Balbinot}, E. and et al.},

the Milky Way, and Extra-Solar Planetary Systems}",

}
\end{filecontents}
\begin{document}
\fullcite{eisenstein2011}
\end{document}
Best Answer
Articles like this are a bit of a grey area, I would say that in this case only
eid = {72}
is correct andpages = {72}
is a bit misleading, but you could feel the exact opposite.Anyway, you can get rid of the
eid
in citations within the bibliography that is
To get rid of the field entirely you can use Biber
With
we delete the
pages
only if the content of the pages andeid
field coincide.
