** Expected behavior

Invoking ~org-cite-insert~ after list bullets (e.g. ~-~ and ~1.~ ) works.

*** Why

Being able to insert citations in lists is useful when the user wants to list works without text surround it, for instance a list akin to the ~Further reading~ section on Wikipedia (e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia#Further_reading). Thus, current behavior is too strict.

** Actual behavior
Invoking ~org-cite-insert~ after list bullets (e.g. ~-~ and ~1.~ ) doesn't work.

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
org-cite-insert: Cannot insert a citation here
#+end_src

** Reproduce

1. Install Emacs master, and add to =~/.config/emacs/init.el=
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(require 'package)

(defvar bootstrap-version)
(let ((bootstrap-file
(expand-file-name "straight/repos/straight.el/bootstrap.el" user-emacs-directory))
(bootstrap-version 5))
(unless (file-exists-p bootstrap-file)
(with-current-buffer
(url-retrieve-synchronously
"https://raw.githubusercontent.com/raxod502/straight.el/develop/install.el"
'silent 'inhibit-cookies)
(goto-char (point-max))
(eval-print-last-sexp)))
(load bootstrap-file nil 'nomessage))

(straight-use-package 'use-package)

(setq straight-use-package-by-default t)

(defun my-call-process (command &rest args)
"Execute COMMAND with ARGS synchronously.

Returns (STATUS . OUTPUT) when it is done, where STATUS is the returned error
code of the process and OUTPUT is its stdout output."
(with-temp-buffer
(cons (or (apply #'call-process command nil t nil (remq nil args))
-1)
(string-trim (buffer-string)))))

(use-package org
:straight '(:type git :host github :repo "emacs-straight/org"
:build t
:pre-build
(with-temp-file "org-version.el"
(insert "(defun org-release () \"9.5\")\n"
(format "(defun org-git-version (&rest _) \"9.5-%s\")\n"
(cdr (my-call-process "git" "rev-parse" "--short" "HEAD")))
"(provide 'org-version)\n")))
:config
(require 'oc-basic))
#+end_src

2. Create bibtex file =org/test.bib= with
#+begin_src bibtex
@book{test-2021-test,
title = {Test},
author = {{Test}},
year = {2021},
}
#+end_src

3. Create org-mode file =org/test.org=
#+begin_src org
,#+TITLE: Test
,#+BIBLIOGRAPHY: test.bib

4. Put cursor after any of the list bullets and ~org-cite-insert~

I did a little test myself, and can confirm that it's not currently
possible to insert a citation *immediately* after a bullet and space.
This can be checked with `org-cite--allowed-p'.

Thinking about this situation, inserting citations should be fine as
long as the `point' isn't before or immediately after the bullet itself
(i.e. no space).

I've prepared a patch that fixes this (attached). This is the test case
that I'm adding:

+     ((eq type 'item)
+      (> (point) (+ (org-element-property :begin context)
+                    (org-get-indentation)
+                    1)))

As this is so simple, if nobody has any comments I'll push this in a
week or so.

Subject: [PATCH] oc: allow citations following an item bullet

* lisp/oc.el (org-cite--allowed-p): Expand the allowed cases to include
"item", which lets one insert a citation following a bullet, e.g. "- ".
We just have to check to make sure the citation actually is at least one
character away from the bullet.

I agree.

Cites in lists can be useful, including for things like CVs.

Thank you! Would it also be feasible to enable inserting citations after list checkboxes? For example

- [ ] [cite:@author-2021-title]
- [X] [cite:@author-2021-title]
  + [X] [cite:@author-2021-title]

This is super useful for marking which works/documents the user did read and took notes for e.g. a literature review.

Hi All,

I’ve waited a while and had no feedback, so I’ve just pushed this as f2b6f57,
tweaked to treat checkboxes appropriately too.

All the best,
Timothy
