[Tex/LaTex] How to remove the list of numbers after a BibTex bibliography

bibliographiesbibtex

I'd like to remove the numbers at the end of my bibliography:

enter image description here

The code is

\bibliographystyle{plain}
\bibliography{refs}
\cite{Cottle_2009}
\cite{Bhattacharjee2015}
\cite{Wikram98}
\cite{Wikramanayake2011}
\cite{Wingfield98}
\cite{Weise2014}
\cite{Walston2010}
\cite{Trinkel2011}

etc with more references, followed by '\end{document}'.

I suggest you replace

\bibliographystyle{plain}
\bibliography{refs}
\cite{Cottle_2009}
\cite{Bhattacharjee2015}
\cite{Wikram98}
\cite{Wikramanayake2011}
\cite{Wingfield98}
\cite{Weise2014}
\cite{Walston2010}
\cite{Trinkel2011}

with

\usepackage{cite}
\bibliographystyle{plain}
\bibliography{refs}
\nocite{Cottle_2009,Bhattacharjee2015,Wikram98,Wikramanayake2011,Wingfield98}
\nocite{Weise2014,Walston2010,Trinkel2011}

Note that it's perfectly alright to (a) have more than one \nocite instruction in the document and (b) include several entries in the argument of a \nocite instruction.

Any additonal publications you wish to have show up in the formatted bibliography but for which you don't want to create individual citation call-outs should also get the \nocite treatment.
