Troubles with several references

Hi

I am having some troubles including several references using Zotero. I wonder whether the problem is in the reference itself, or if within Zotero there would be something you could do to solve it.

Here are the references:

• (2008). The Role of Tumour Suppressor Tyrosine Kinase SYK in Glioblastoma and Breast Cancer (Universitätsbibliothek der TU München).
I.e. Authors name doesn’t appear in main text.
• (Takeuchi et al., 2007). Takeuchi, R., Ohtsuka, K., Ochi, N., and Inaguma, Y. (2007). Post-translational modification of Foxp2, a transcriptional factor, involved in developmental verbal dyspraxia. Congenit. Anom. 47, A16. It is 2010 instead of 2007.

Others not recognised by Zotero:
• (Song 2017) miR-618 Inhibits Prostate Cancer Migration and Invasion by Targeting FOXP2. Xian-Lu Song1*, Yao Tang2, 3, 4*, Xiang-Hui Lei2, 3, 5, Shan-Chao Zhao6, Zi-Qing Wu2, 3, 4
• I.C. Weaver; T. Sakurai; J.D. Buxbaum; V. Rymar; A. Sadikot; D.R. Kaplan; F.D. Miller. 2009 The speech vocalization gene, foxp2, regulates interneuron fate decisions.
• Momoi and Fujita, 2009 Heritable Neurodevelopmental Disorders and Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress. Chapter 6 in book Protein Misfolding Disorders: A Trip into the ER. Editor(s): Claudio Hetz DOI: 10.2174/97816080501301090101

Please, let me know if there is something you could do.
Or.. how could I include these references manually?

Thanks much,
Maria

  • I don't quite follow: Are they not adding to Zotero correctly (in which case we'd need the URL you're saving from) or is the bibliography incorrect even though you have checked the item data is in Zotero correctly (in which case, what citation style)?
  • Not sure why is the problem, but these references are not properly inserted into my final manuscript in word..
  • I'm still not quite sure what you're saying. Have you made sure those references are correct in Zotero itself? Otherwise of course they're not going to print correctly in Word.
  • Let's take for instance the first reference mentioned above:
    (2008). The Role of Tumour Suppressor Tyrosine Kinase SYK in Glioblastoma and Breast Cancer (Universitätsbibliothek der TU München).

    In this case, the problem is that author's name doesn’t appear in the main text of my manuscript when I insert the reference (i.e. only year appears).
    Seems like the names doesn't appear when imported into Zotero from this website: https://books.google.com/books/about/The_Role_of_Tumour_Suppressor_Tyrosine_K.html?id=KpojnQAACAAJ

    Not quite sure if there is something you can do about it..
  • You need to check that the data is entered correctly in Zotero. If you don’t have an author name in your library, it can’t print when you enter a citation in Word. You should Always verify that the item data is complete and accurate after you import and make necessary corrections, particularly for Google Books, which often has low quality metadata.
  • But we _are_ interested in the source of those references. We sometimes -- though very much not always -- can improve import.
  • Thank you for your answers!
    Here the sources, please let me know if you can do some improvements, that would be great!
    Alternatively how I could introduce the citations myself?
