Upgrade StorageStyle Error: Methods of Information in Medicine
Hi.
So glad I found this style! It's almost compliant to the latest authour instructions.
There are two issues
- the period at the end of the reference that should be removed
- max number of authors to be displayed should be 6
Can you sort that out?
All the best,
Anna

• References must be listed in AMA style, using Index Medicus journal title abbreviations.
• References must be cited sequentially (NOT alphabetically) in the text using superscript numbers.
• By way of exception to AMA style, do not italicize book titles or journal title abbreviations and do not put a period at the end of a reference.
• List all author names, up to and including six names. For more than six authors, list the first three followed by et al.

I think that this row should have a '3' instead of '6'.
bibliography et-al-min="7" et-al-use-first="6" second-field-align="flush"
I can't get that change into GitHub, can you?
Will this automatically update the file in Zoteros library or do I need to install it separately? Cheers! / A
I know what to do obviously. ;)
Btw, if you know about CSL then you can always just submit a style or style fix yourself. See: https://github.com/citation-style-language/styles/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md
I know a little, but not enought to sort it myself without a lot of effort. Thank you very very much for fixing it for me :)
Thanks in advance, Anna
To see how to add these to a style, take a look for example, at the American Psychological Association style. If the journal guidelines give guidance on page numbers, we can update the style.
But if you are submitting to the journal, I'd suggest following their conventions.
I've run into a problem with this style. When citing Web pages it says "date unknown", like below even though there is an access date. Can I get rid of it somehow?
SNOMED CT Editorial Guide. [date unknown]. https://confluence.ihtsdotools.org/display/DOCEG. Accessed October 5, 2020
Thanks, Anna
I just checked, AMA doesn't have "no date" override, but this style has it.
The guidelines are not specific, so I'd say we can leave it in unless the publishers say anything. Of course, add a date when there is on, as adamsmith says.
Style guide:
Eisenberg J. Market forces and physician workforce reform: why they may not work. Paper presented at: Annual Meeting of the Association of American Medical Colleges; October 28, 1995; Washington, DC
My paper:
Pathak J, Jiang G, Dwarkanath SO, Buntrock JD, Chute CG. LexValueSets: An Approach for Context-Driven Value Sets Extraction. Paper presented at: AMIA Annual Symposium; Washington, DC; November 8, 2008

I would have thought that "Presented at xxxx, date, place" would refer to the Conference itself, not the publication from the conference.
What do you think? Regards, Anna
When I toggle to presentation it doesn't display the name of the meeting at all, even though entered in Zotero under "Meeting Name".
Entered as presentation:
Sundvall E, Qamar R, Nyström M, et al. Integration of tools for binding archetypes to SNOMED CT. 2006
Entered as Conference Paper:
Sundvall E, Qamar R, Nyström M, et al. Integration of tools for binding archetypes to SNOMED CT. Paper presented at: First Semantic Mining Conference on SNOMED CT; Copenhagen, Denmark; October 1, 2006
(the text "First Semantic Mining Conference on SNOMED CT" is from the Proceedings Title-box in Zotero)
The style guide for the journal I am sending to states it wants the "Presented at..:" written out, and that leaves me with "Conference Paper".
Also, most of these papers have been classified by Zotero as conference papers. But that is not a good argument, it might just be consistently incorrect... ;)
On the other hand, it's not a big deal, it doesn't show in my paper that the name of the conference comes from the name of the proceeding. It's just confusing to me. :)
That the location comes before the date is however wrong according to the journal. Is that fixable?

Can you show what you get when you cite a Presentation item and what you expect?
I agree entering things as what they are is the best. Maybe this also a misunderstanding (by me) here... Just to make sure I got this right:
presentation - a document that was presented at a conference
conference paper - a paper presented at a conference, published in a collection (proceedings from....)
Correct? Some material exists in both forms, and some state both the presentation and the proceedingsbibliography in the same text, for example https://bmcmedinformdecismak.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/1472-6947-8-S1-S7 (check the PDF).
When I enter it as a presentation in Zotero I get this:
Sundvall E, Qamar R, Nyström M, et al. Integration of tools for binding archetypes to SNOMED CT. 2006
The style guide states they want this:
Citing a symposium article:
Eisenberg J. Market forces and physician workforce reform: why they may not work. Paper presented at: Annual Meeting of the Association of American Medical Colleges; October 28, 1995; Washington, DC
When I enter it as a conference paper I get this:
Sundvall E, Qamar R, Nyström M, et al. Integration of tools for binding archetypes to SNOMED CT. Paper presented at: First Semantic Mining Conference on SNOMED CT; Copenhagen, Denmark; October 1, 2006

Do you agree? Could you help med edit the style? Thanks!
I did however find an issue for chapters, a dot was missing after the container title. That's fixed now.
If that's what was meant with "n."

I've replied in the review that there are no dots in print.
