How to number \addcontentsline?

[PanDemic]

Hi,

I am using the article documentclass, and have used the following to
have the list of references added to the toc:

\clearpage
\bibliography{../Artikler/cite}
\addcontentsline{toc}{section}{Referanser}

The references is placed after the \appendix. However, even if placed
before it, the entry is not numbered. Why is that? And what can I do
about it?

I feel it is kinda strange that the list of references is not numbered
as everything else in the toc either has a roman or a arabic index
number.

Hope someone can help, as all help files I have come across for
\addcontentsline does not mention numbering at all.

Regards,
Pan

Try using
\addcontentsline{toc}{section}{%
\protect\numberline{\thesection}%
Referanser}%
which should add the appropriate sectional number to your References
in the Table of Contents.

Thanks for you suggestion, but still no number there - not in the toc,
nor in the section headline itself.

Anyone have any other suggestion? This has got be an issue solved
hundreds of times.. right?

Hi,

I had the same problem. I manage to solve it by adding
\section{Referenser} just after \begin{thebibliography}{77}.

If you wish to have BOTH the section headline AND the table of
contents entry to have a number, the following worked for me:

\def\thebibliography#1{\section{References}%
\markboth{References}{References}
\list{[\arabic{enumi}]}{\settowidth\labelwidth{[#1]}\leftmargin
\labelwidth
\advance\leftmargin\labelsep
\usecounter{enumi}}
\def\newblock{\hskip .11em plus .33em minus .07em}
\sloppy\clubpenalty4000\widowpenalty4000
\sfcode`\.=1000\relax}

Thereby you redefine the 'thebibliography' environment to actually act
just like a section. And because sections are included with the
appropriate sectional numbers in the table of contents, there should
be no problem. My minimal example that worked with this new definition
of 'thebibliography' environment is:

\documentclass{article}

\def\thebibliography#1{\section{References}%
\markboth{References}{References}
\list{[\arabic{enumi}]}{\settowidth\labelwidth{[#1]}\leftmargin
\labelwidth
\advance\leftmargin\labelsep
\usecounter{enumi}}
\def\newblock{\hskip .11em plus .33em minus .07em}
\sloppy\clubpenalty4000\widowpenalty4000
\sfcode`\.=1000\relax}

\pagestyle{myheadings}

\begin{document}
\tableofcontents
\section{Introduction}
\section{Another section}

\clearpage

\begin{thebibliography}{x}
\bibitem{ref1} reference 1
\bibitem{ref2} reference 2
\bibitem{ref3} reference 3
\end{thebibliography}

\end{document}
