I used
medical-physics.csl
via Paperpile in Google Docs.I've been working on a revision of a manuscript to Medical Physics, addressing comments of the reviewer about missing DOIs/URLs for some of the references, and first I thought I would need to change the csl to add DOI/URL. However, that turned out to be far from trivial, and so I turned back to the Medical Physics submission guidelines, which state unambiguously that
I then was able to switch to AMA via
american-medical-association.csl
, and had my problem solved.This led me to think that
medical-physics.csl
is not needed, and in fact creates confusion, since it omits URLs/DOIs that are often really critical.medical-physics.csl
was added in this commit on Sept 16, 2012.But
american-medical-association.csl
was added back in Dec 18, 2010 asama.csl
, and later renamed.I believe

should be removed, or should be replaced with the content ofamerican-medical-association.csl
.
