Insert a bibliography without citations ?

symac

Hello,
I'd like to insert a bibliography in an article without any citation. In LibreOffice (4.1.3.2 on ubuntu 13.10), I choose "Insert bibliography", I get a frame with {Bibliography}. Then I go to edit bibliography, I add 4 references I want to use, I say OK but I still only have {Bibliography}, references don't show.

However, if I add only one citation to my article, all my bibliography appears, including the 4 previous references + the one I've just added as a citation.

Isn't there any way to add a custom bibliography when you don't have a citation ?

Thanks

This is the way to do it *with the word plugin* : https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/16261/creating-editing-a-bibliography-only/?Focus=81430#Comment_81430
(i.e. in most cases, the best option is to use quick copy or right-click.)

But the bibliography should remain after the deletion of the citation : this is not the case for me too (but with MS Word 2010 on Windows 7) and this is a bug.

Me asking similar question, nearly ten years later.

For the record, the answer (workaround) in above-mentioned comment works (i.e., color change to white).
