摘　　要：The correctness of bibliographic references and citations for retrieving information is essential.However,many journals are still receiving manuscripts with reference formats different to those specified in the journal guidelines.Consequently,this increases the difficulty for editors to process the manuscripts and restricts the production process.This paper discussed the specification format of bibliographic references and citations in English-language scientific journals from the perspective of the reference specification itself.Based on the current four mainstream styles used in the bibliographic references and citations of international English-language scientific journals,combined with the reference examples of ten English-language scientific journals launched in China and our work experience,we suggested the specific suggestions on the standardization of reference specification in English-language scientific journals in China.It is recommended to simplify the essential information(author’s name,article title,journal title,and year of publication)for bibliographic references and citations,add a hyperlink to the homepage of the reference cited,and prioritize adding the digital object identifier(DOI)of all the references.This standardization suggested can speed up the information processing of references,which can reduce the burden on authors and readers,save more time for editors to provide more services for scholars,and better realize the article links and communications on the Internet.
