Research direction

Find tests that call create_template without needing to test bibliography extraction. Read the create_template documentation or implementation to confirm the bib_file argument, then set it to FALSE in those tests. Done when the tests avoid unnecessary bibliography extraction and still pass.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
