An unused reference in research paper


Publishing Same Research Paper on a National Conference as well as International IEEE conferenceChanging the title of a research paper before the submission of the camera-ready versionWhat will happen to my paper if the status of the accepted paper is “AAR” in a IEEE conferenceShould the distinction between bibliography and reference be maintained when writing a paper?How much can you trust a reference of a paper that is not availableDo I need to add answers to the reviewers’ comments to a conference paper?At what stage should acknowledgements be inserted into the paper if review is not double-blind?Performing minor corrections in a paper after camera-ready deadlineIs it ok to write a follow-up paper for a paper which has been accepted but not available online yet?References must be cited vs. need not be cited

I am in a process of camera-ready for the research paper and now paper is in process for camera-ready in publication. I have listed few more reference in reference section of paper which is not reference the text.
for example:




This result1 is cited from [1].

This result2 is cited from [4].



In reference section

[1] cited from here

[2] cited from here

[3] cited from here

[4] cited from here




But I have not referenced [2] and [3] anywhere in the paper.



Is this paper is valid for publication? Or does it not affect the paper?

          You have three options. I would consider any of them valid, but an editor might disagree.




          1. Remove the extra references and renumber if necessary.


          2. Put a note somewhere, say with the bibliography, that some references here are just background.


          3. Ignore the problem, assuming that readers will assume 2.



          I think these are in order of decreasing preference, but I wouldn't object to any of them.

            This depends on the journal's style sheet, but usually you only list the references that are cited in the text. Thus, I would delete the superfluous ones (and renumber the notes).

            • Indeed. Having random unused references in your manuscript is sloppy at best, and is an easy way to indicate to the reviewers that you haven’t proofread it.
