Style request: Vancouver with page numbers

brabeheart

I was looking for a Vancouver style that would allow page numbers in the in-text reference e.g. (3[p.117]) but couldn't find one. So I put this together, and I thought I'd share it.

I'm not sure of the preferred way of posting styles on this forum, so I put it here: http://pastebin.com/iJzdkqNg

Here's a diff from the standard vancouver.csl: http://pastebin.com/WD6PghSF

Hope it's useful to someone!

That's (3,[p.117]) in the style you posted, right? pastebin is fine. I don't think we'd take this for the CSL repository unless NLM specifies it as an option.

brabeheart

No, the comma doesn't appear for me. I wasn't expecting it to -- isn't the delimiter for multiple citations? E.g. (3[p.117],9[pp.101-5]) ?

adamsmith

you're right, I looked too quickly.

Hi all, I found the addition highly helpful, except that the specific format does not look very beautifully ;-)

Would anybody have an idea what would need to be changed in this specific .csl to change (3,[p.117]) to (3:117)?

Change the `layout` section in `citation` to:

<layout prefix="(" suffix=")" delimiter=":">
<text variable="citation-number"/>
<text variable="locator"/>
</layout>

Thank you very much. Unfortunately, this does not work yet. In my text, it changed
(3[p.740])
into
(3740)

and

(19,20) [which are actually two references]
into
(19:20)

Ah, sorry. This:

<layout prefix="(" suffix=")" delimiter=",">
<group delimiter=":">
<text variable="citation-number"/>
<text variable="locator"/>
</group>
</layout>

Great, it works!!
Thank you! :-)

This is very helpful. But the citations are not getting superscripted. May I know how can we do that? thanks in advance

Add vertical-align="sup" in the first line

Thank you very much. I am not at all familiar with the coding. So you mean to the following line?

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

sumanaskoulagi

got it. Thanks
