Broken citation formats in html

[TomBener]

On 2022-06-15, I cloned the repo and knit skeleton.Rmd to html. However, It looks weird. In the following screenshot, texts following the citation [@R-base] were rendered as italic, and the reference in the sidenote was not correct. In the example page, It is “R Core Team. 2021. R: A Language and Environment for Statistical Computing. Vienna, Austria: R Foundation for Statistical Computing. https://www.r-project.org/.”

Some information on my test:

• OS: macOS 12.4
• Pandoc version: 2.18
• R: 4.2.0
• rmarkdown: 2.14

Furthermore, I create a new .Rmd file. And it encountered similar issues. Some references did not appear on the right side, and a few bibliographies were split arbitrarily. In addition, some texts were hyperlinked incorrectly.

I’m not sure if the package has any bug. Could you please help with this?

By the way, pandoc-citeproc seems to be deprecated, but the manual page mentioned that pandoc-citeproc should be at least 0.7.2. Please update it. Thanks.

Thanks for the report. I believe this is linked to rstudio/rmarkdown#2369 and I think I need to fix it in rmarkdown

To confirm this is the issue, you can do this

output:
  tufte::tufte_html: 
    pandoc_args: '--wrap=none'

This should make everything right.

I added mention of Pandoc 2.11 and above. i'll update the doc once I fixed in rmarkdown

output:
  tufte::tufte_html: 
    pandoc_args: '--wrap=none'

Thanks, it works well!

Good. That means it is the issue. I need to add this internally so that a user doesn't have to set it.

For the context, this is due to a Pandoc change that modify the default for this behavior so we need to adjust. Getting back to an older Pandoc is also a workaround.
