Does this actually constitute a bibliographic reference?
This is in a paper I am proofreading, freelance. I am querying it:
"10. $name1, $name2, $name3, Vegas, $name4. Submitted to a conference for blind review. Details omitted to preserve anonymity."
The referencing sentence says "The implementation of the algorithm and the experimental platform are described in more detail in a previous work.10"
As I understand it, the purpose of a reference to the authors' previous work is to enable the reader to find the information. This completely fails at that. (I think it also fails to establish priority, but I may be mistaken there.)
