How to add reference from NCBI without a PubMed entry?

When I import a reference from NCBI such as https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5599567/,
a PubMed entry (which a URL) will be added automatically in the imported item. I wonder how to import this reference without this PubMed entry. The option Automatically take the snapshots when creating items from web pages has been disabled in the Edit-Preferences-General menu.
  • There's no way short of modifying the translator. It's not a snapshot and doesn't take up space.

    (That said, we could remove these if we added PMID/PMCID fields, such that you could just click on the label, the same way you can click on the URL and DOI labels.)
  • Thanks for your kind reply.
