Style Request: Journal of Peasant Studies

Journal of Peasant Studies has the highest impact factor of any journal in the Development/Planning and Anthropology categories, according to the latest Thompson Reuters data.

It would be great if Zotero could add this popular journal's style. JPS’s ISSNs are 0306-6150 (Print) and 1743-9361 (Online).

Here are some JPS-style citations (some taken from its website http://www.tandfonline.com/action/authorSubmission?journalCode=fjps20&page=instructions#.Ufrc8G12HJc and others from a recent article of mine):

  • The style is now up. It will appear on the style repository within 30mins.. (See here if you need instructions for installing styles in standalone.)

    Any problems please let us know.
  • Many thanks, adamsmith! The one needed modification that I see immediately is that the journal's style puts the initials of a second author before that author's last name, rather than after, as in the style now on Zotero.

    Many thanks in advance for straightening this out.
  • One more issue: the in-text citations in the style that is now on Zotero use p. or pp. That is, (Smith 2012, pp. 45-46).

    The Journal of Peasant Studies uses (Smith 2012, 45-46) without p. or pp.

    Again, many thanks.
  • And I'm not getting italics for titles in the References. But that was happening with other Zotero styles as well, so maybe that problem isn't specific to this new style.
  • 1&2 are fixed
    The updated version will appear on the repository within 30mins (check the timestamp). Update your copy of the style by re-installing it from the repository. (See here if you need instructions for installing styles in standalone.)

    Styles should also update automatically within 24hs for Zotero 4.0+
    In an existing document, you may have to switch to a different style and back for the changes to take effect once the style is updated.

    The italics issue is almost certainly due to a Word bug that kicks in if the first reference is mostly in italics (e.g. a book with a very long title). Place a dummy book reference by Abu Aardvark with a long publisher and a short title at the beginning of the bibliography and this should be fine - the italics for book & journal titles are in the style.
  • Many thanks, again!

    Only one minor detail needs correction at this point:

    There shouldn't be a comma after author's name and before year. Just a period.

    For example:

    Robotham, D. 2005. Culture, society, and economy: bringing production back in. Thousand Oaks, CA: Sage Publications.

    NOT:

    Robotham, D., 2005. Culture, society, and economy: bringing production back in. Thousand Oaks, CA: Sage Publications.
