This document outlines an easy method for writing references in Vancouver style by copying and pasting information from PubMed. The advantages are that it reduces mistakes in author names, journal titles, and other details. The process involves copying the article title into PubMed to find the reference, then copying authors, title, journal, and other publication info into the reference. This method provides a simple, fast way to generate accurate references without manual entry. The only disadvantage is it does not work if the article is not indexed in PubMed.
