italic words in title of the refs: suggestion?
Hi team
I found that the title names mostly in our field of study contain the latin name of different species in italic that is not considered at all in the bibliography and need to manually eidt each one which is difficult and many times I forgot some of them showing inconsistenceny. Any solution for this in an upcoming version?
many thanks in advance.

.Enter what? the whole citation? this means that the intext citation will be affected as citing journals but as links! I have almost all of the refs inclduign italics.
Any possible algorithm for this to solve it in the long term?
title with one word in <i>italics</i> in it
.I have a bibliography with words that should be in italic (as they are latin scientific names) but they are not.

markers into the title in Zotero.what site did you import it from? The journal website itself as always.
you want to tell the websites?

Looking at just the first entry, nature.com has one set of data for humans (the title with the italics), and one set of data you don't usually see for computers, embedded in the page source, which is what Zotero reads:
<meta name="dc.title" content="Replacing fishmeal with plant protein in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) diets by supplementation with fish protein hydrolysate"/>
So the publisher has chosen to omit italics information in the data presented to computers. The other links will undoubtedly have the same or similar problems.
These kinds of things can sometimes be worked around when the publisher is unwilling to fix their metadata, eg by picking up the information intended for humans, and that's what Zotero does for a fair number of sites. Such changes can be requested on this forum, but you have to give samples, as there is no general, single-place fix; because there isn't an industry standard for publishing computer-readable metadata, Zotero has handlers for specific sites -- somewhere between 600 and 700 different handlers right now.
Whether such requests are taken up is not up to me, I'm not part of the Zotero team. I interpreted your original question as "how do I get italics without editing them in the Word document", and that is what my response was meant to address.
Who I should share this suggestion with? so they might work on @
article url
" for a few sites and see how the takeup is.Manually checking the items for correct information after importing them from other sources is necessary, and checking it every time you import makes it easier when you end up using it. Grabbing all data completely error-free is extremely difficult for Zotero, and contributors to the Zotero ecosystem can only come as close to this goal as possible.
Those shortcuts don't work for me in the titles at all. Any advice?
You can always just write html tags like so:
The best plant is <i>Monstera deliciosa</i>
