How add the (« ») in the titles ?

taoufik7789

Hi,

How I can add the (« ») in the titles of articles?

for example, I want to get this form :
ALBERT P., FAYOLLE A. (2014), « Entrepreneurship », Journal of small business, n°101, p.100-112.

In what part of the programming language of the file .csl I have to change?

Thank you, and sorry for my english :)

quotes="true" set on tht title in any style with a fr-FR locale should do that.

Thanks for your answer,

How I can do it ?

Try to use the visual editor for that, see here for some documentation: https://www.zotero.org/support/dev/citation_styles/style_editing_step-by-step

Hello adamsmith and zuphilip, I am the co-author of Taoufik for a scientific article in Entrepreneurship. I have already changed a .csl file thanks to you so I think I could handle this.

My Zotero is in fr-FR locale.
Could you please just tell me where in the .csl file I should set quotes="true" for the title? The word title appears several times!

For instance, we have this in the .csl file, where I think we can feature the presentation of journal articles (which represent the majority of our references):

<if type="article-journal bill book chapter graphic legal_case legislation motion_picture paper-conference report song" match="none">
<date variable="issued">
<date-part name="year"/>
<date-part name="month"/>
<date-part name="day"/>
</date>
</if>
<else>
<date variable="issued">
<date-part name="year"/>
</date>
</else>
</choose>
</macro>
<macro name="issued-year">
<choose>
<if variable="issued">
<date variable="issued">
<date-part name="year"/>
</date>
<text variable="year-suffix"/>
</if>
<else>
<text term="no date" form="short"/>
<text variable="year-suffix" prefix="-"/>
</else>
</choose>
</macro>
<macro name="edition">
<choose>
<if is-numeric="edition">
<group delimiter=" ">
<number variable="edition" form="ordinal"/>
<text term="edition" form="short" suffix="." strip-periods="true"/>
</group>
</if>
<else>
<text variable="edition" suffix="."/>
</else>
</choose>
</macro>
<macro name="locators">
<choose>
<if type="article-journal article-magazine" match="any">
<group prefix=", " delimiter=", ">
<group>
<text variable="volume" font-style="italic"/>
<text variable="issue" prefix="(" suffix=")"/>
</group>
<text variable="page"/>
</group>
</if>

I'd have to see the whole style. As you can see, the section you have doesn't include the title at all. It's only a small part of the journal reference.

Beyond journal articles, we also have books and book chapters. For the moment I am not skilled enough to read clearly in a .csl file.
Is there a way I can send you the .csl file? I can't put the whole style but here is the beginning:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="windows-1252"?>
<style xmlns="http://purl.org/net/xbiblio/csl" class="in-text" version="1.0" demote-non-dropping-particle="never">

go to gist.github.com paste the whole style there, create private gist, link to it here.

Great stuff!
https://gist.github.com/anonymous/4ada49f58929b1fa2ba6
Does it work?

adamsmith

The macro "title" in lines 164 to 180
As you can see, it mentions the variable title three times:
In line 167 for reports and theses
In line 173 for
book graphic motion_picture song manuscript speech (it also says report, but actually will never get there)
In line 177 for everything else (including chapter and journal articles. That's where you'd want to set quotes="true".

Great! It is working, thank you from Taoufik and I!
Long live Zotero.
