JMLR translator broken?

nschneid · February 22, 2012

E.g. trying to import on http://jmlr.csail.mit.edu/papers/v12/goldwater11a.html produces an error in Zotero 3.0.3 on Firefox 10.0.2.

confirmed - I'll see what I can do, will take a while, though.

should be fixed now.

This appears to work for the papers in JMLR proper, but not for conference proceedings published by JMLR, which have "proceedings" in the URL:

http://jmlr.csail.mit.edu/proceedings/papers/v15/
http://jmlr.csail.mit.edu/proceedings/papers/v15/stoyanov11a.html

I won't fix that. The transator relies on - already quit fragile - parsing of the citation as given on the page. I'm not sure if this can even be done reliably for conference papers, but I certainly have no interest in doing it.
If you want to, get in touch with JMLR and suggest they provide better metadata on their page.
