Upgrade StorageStyle Request: Political Studies?
Hi,
I would appreciate if a citation style for Political Studies could be added. They are based on a Harvard author/date system, but the bibliography is quite different from the available Harvard style in Zotero.
Here is their style guide:

Thanks a bunch!

seriously? It changes to an ampersand when page numbers are given? That's gotta be a mistake, no? Anyway it isn't/wouldn't be possible in Zotero.
Go here
http://gist.github.com/514981
download by right-clicking on "Raw" on the top right and save as...
political-studies.csl
install by dragging the file political-studies.csl to any open FF windows.
Let me know how it goes
FF means firefox? If I drag it into firefox I get this message: "This XML file does not appear to have any style information associated with it. The document tree is shown below."
???
If so, you're fine - you'll find the style in your Zotero.
If not - does the file end with .csl or with .csl.xml?
If the latter you'll have to show Windows file extensions and take out the .xml part - for some reason Windows Vista 7 sometimes add this.
???
are you sure about that?
Are you seeing file extensions in Vista?
http://www.tech-recipes.com/rx/1269/vista_show_unhide_file_extensions/
If this were a .csl file this would either work or you'd get a more meaningful error message.
Anyway, the citation style runs smoothly and so far it looks good. I am pretty tired now though and better take another look at it tomo.
Journal articles ...
need a space in between the volume and issue.
Also, it seems they want the first numeral in page numbers shortened such as in pp. 178-98.
Paper presented
They want the sentence "Paper presented at." I would leave out "the" from the Zotero style. Many conference names already include "the" and for many other titles a preceding "the" inappropriate. They also want the day and month after the location. I don't know if this could be implemented in Zotero.
Web page
What I get now is this:
Transparency International. (2002). 'Corruption Perceptions Index 2002'. Retrieved August 13, 2010, from http://www.transparency.org/policy_research/surveys_indices/cpi/2002
and what they want is this:
Transparency International (2002) Corruption Perceptions Index 2002 [online]. Transparency International. Available from: http://www.transparency.org/policy_research/surveys_indices/cpi/2002 [Accessed 13 August 2010].
PhD Thesis:
What they want is this:
Lavelle, A. (2003) 'The Wilderness Years: Federal Labor in Opposition'. Unpublished PhD thesis, Department of Politics and Public Policy, Griffith University, November.
I get something very different now.
Newspapers:
seems to be not formatted so far. They want it in this way:
Klein, J. (2002) 'How the Solidarity Dream Turned Sour', Guardian, 12 June, G2, p. 7.
For italics and further details compare: http://www.politicalstudies.org/styleguide.asp
Thanks for your efforts!
Cheers!

On theses, what do you get now that's "very different"?
The current format is this (the 'section' field does not appear):
Klein, J. (2002, June 12). 'How the Solidarity Dream Turned Sour', Guardian, 7.
and the style guide format:
Klein, J. (2002) 'How the Solidarity Dream Turned Sour', Guardian, 12 June, G2, p. 7.
The current format produces this for a thesis citation (I put 'Department' in the 'place' field and 'unpublished PhD thesis' in the 'type' field):
Lavelle, A. (2003, November). The Wilderness Years: Federal Labor in Opposition (Unpublished PhD thesis). Griffith University, Department of Politics and Public Policy.
The style guide wants it in this way:
Lavelle, A. (2003) 'The Wilderness Years: Federal Labor in Opposition'. Unpublished PhD thesis, Department of Politics and Public Policy, Griffith University, November.
Hope that clarifies the issue. Cheers.
Note: you don't want to be doing weird, non-standard, things like putting the department name in the "place" field. I'm not going to code the style like that. Couldn't you just add "Department of Politics and Public Policy, Griffith University" to the "university" field until Zotero implements a better solution?

sorry I've been out of the loop on this
As you probably know APSA was this weekend and I was busy first preparing and then attending. If there's more stuff you need I hope to get to some style coding next weekend.
Yes, I know about APSA. Since you are an archeologist, I wonder what you did there actually? ;)
This is off-topic: I checked your profile. Since I am also into China studies, I find your record very impressive. I particularly envy your language skills. I am really puzzled how you get all this done and be all over the place on the Zotero forum at the same time.
