Heredity and Molecular Ecology styles available in this post

dangxdong · February 12, 2012

Hi I have made the csl files for the two Journals. You can find a Heredity style in the Zotero Style Repository but it is a wrong one. My file here works better..

Please go to
https://gist.github.com/1861067
for Heredity,

and go to
https://gist.github.com/1861117
for Molecular Ecology (also fit the Molecular Ecology Resources, I think.)

Please let me know if you meet any mistakes with either file, and I am glad to correct them.

thank you!
Please see here for style requirements
https://github.com/citation-style-language/styles/wiki/Style-Requirements
we'd need you to fix naming/id/link, add ISSN(s), add link to documentation if possible, and add a default locale.

Thanks for reminding. I have fixed the issues. Please see the modified file at those two sites.

adamsmith · February 17, 2012

great - thanks. If you could still fix up the ids/link/filename. It should not have capitals (as the Heredity one currently does) and should contain the full journal name - no abbreviations - with each word separated by a hyphen (-). The filename (but not the link and id) should end on .csl.

Your Molecular Ecology style doesn't validate. See

Thanks Rintze. I rechecked the file and re-uploaded it. See the new addresses in the above posts.

One thing is that the mycology research link has disappeared, so I just deleted it from the file.

The other link, i.e. the official website address of the journal Mol Eco is definitely correct, but the validation says it contains an "=" as an Error. I just keep it as it was.

And many other things just don't affect the efficacy, so I just didn't deal with most of the 'errors' except for some minor change.

Wee need styles to validate correctly before they go on the repository - to assure they will work with other CSL implementations, to assure that potential automatic upgrades in the future will work.
The problem is not the = but the unescaped apersand (&) - you need to write that as &amp ; without the space.

dangxdong · February 19, 2012

OK, understand. Just fixed it.

Note that I used an attribute "delimiter-precedes-et-al" which is both really needed here and working well, although it is said not allowed with the 1.0 version. This is the only error left but I have to keep it.

adamsmith · March 14, 2012

these are now up. Removed the delimiter-precedes-et-al, we'll put it back once the repository upgrades to csl 1.0.1
