I am attempting to cite previous chapters in my dissertation using bibtex, but most of these are currently unpublished so I am citing them as in prepartion. I have attempted to use the \noop{} functionality but have encountered an issue. When I attempt to cite the previous 3 chapters in the fourth chapter the last in preparation chapter is cited as "I" . For example, when I compile the command \citep{Vincent17, Chapter2, Chapter3} , I get the following

(Vincent et al. 2017; In Preparation 2017a;I).

If I cite only Chapter3 I get the result I expect of (Vincent et al. In Preparation 2017b). I started out the In Preparation without the "a" and "b", but Bibtex was not adding them. Below are the relevant citations. I am using the natbib and hyperref and cleveref packages. 

@Article{Vincent17,
  author =   {Matthew T Vincent and Travis O Brenden and James R Bence},
  title =    {Simulation testing the robustness of a multi-region tag-integrated assessment model that exhibits natal homing and estimates natural mortality and reporting rate},
  journal =      {Can. J. Fish. Aquat. Sci.},
  year =     {2017}
}

@Article{Chapter2,
  author =   {Matthew T Vincent and Travis O Brenden and James R Bence},
  title =    {Parameter estimation performance in a recovery-conditioned integrated tagging catch-at-age analysis model},
  journal =      {Manuscript in Preparation},
  year =     {\noop{3333}In~Preparation 2017a}}
}

@Article{Chapter3,
  author =   {Matthew T Vincent and Travis O Brenden and James R Bence},
  title =    {Testing common assumptions used in simulations of multi-region Integrated Tagging and Catch-at-Age Analysis model performance},
  journal =      {Manuscript in Preparation},
  year =     {\noop{4444}In~Preparation 2017b}}
}

  • The body of your question talks about bibtex, but your question is tagged biblatex. Please clarify which one you are using. – samcarter_is_at_topanswers.xyz Jul 20 '17 at 20:09
  • I am using bibtex. – user3653085 Jul 20 '17 at 20:11

    Welcome to TeX.SE. I don't think it's proper to use the @article entry type for the entries Chapter2 and Chapter3. You should be using either the @misc or the @unpublished entry type for these two entries. – Mico Jul 20 '17 at 20:11
  • Which bibliography style do you employ? – Mico Jul 20 '17 at 20:15
  • I am using the cjfas.bst, which I obtained from here: https://github.com/seananderson/bst/blob/master/cjfas.bst – user3653085 Jul 20 '17 at 20:17
  • I have attempted to use both the @misc and @unpublished entry types for the last two entries. When I included In Preparation 2017 as year for both entry types the result was the same. – user3653085 Jul 20 '17 at 20:43
  • @Mico I was using the @article based on the first answer to your question a while ago https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/31384/how-to-enter-publications-in-press-or-submitted-to-in-bibtex – user3653085 Jul 20 '17 at 21:06
  • Yeah, those examples were meant to be (parodies of) real journal names. For a piece of information such as "Manuscript in Preparation", I suggest you stick it in a note field and that you change the entry type from @article to @misc. – Mico Jul 20 '17 at 21:15
