Deleting an in-text citation
Once you have inserted a citation, you should not edit it manually. Instead, you must use Edit & Manage Citation(s). This includes deleteing an in-text citation.
To delete an in-text citation:
Position the cursor in the relevant in-text citation and click Edit & Manage Citation(s).
A pop-up window will open with the citation highlighted → Click the arrow beside Edit Reference → From the drop-down list select Remove Citation → Click OK.
Please Note: If this is the only time the citation occurs, deleting this citation will also remove the reference from the reference list.
