Review text

Summary: Since August 2017, MathOverflow users can seemlessly detect literature references in zbMATH and insert them into discussions. Likewise, backlinks are automatically generated. This feature has been used in more than 500 distinct questions since then. In this column, we discuss the details of this tool and analyse its usage data during the last two years.
