CSL Request: Annual Reviews of Materials Research

Citation Style Request
I would like to ask the community for assistance in developing the csl file for the journal Annual Reviews of Materials Research. This CSL will have many dependent styles as a large portion of the Annual Reviews journals use roughly the same style.

(style info is on pg. 13 of this .pdf, style examples on pg. 16)
http://www.annualreviews.org/authors/pdf/blue_book_apr_07_online.pdf
(style info is on pg. 13 of this .pdf, style examples on pg. 16)

Similar Style:
The style is a numbered style and appears similar to IEEE
There exists an endnote style for this journal at http://www.annualreviews.org/authors/endnote/ann_rev_materials_research.ens, but it doesn’t translate properly into Zotero. The bibliography displays correctly, but the in text citations are labeled wrong

Differences:
Citations are delimited by () instead of [] in text. Use an em-dash for lists over 2 refs long
et al. is used after 5 authors
Author names are listed as Jones FM, Williams FM, FinalAuthor FM.
Bibliography format is slightly different

Journal article format for bibliography:
RefNum. Jones FM, Williams FM, FinalAuthor FM. Year. Article Title. <i>Journal Title.</i> volume:pages.

Book format for bibloigraphy:
RefNum. Jones FM, Williams FM. Year. <i>Book Title</i>, pp. cited pages. PublisherCity, Publisher State:Publisher. TotalPages.

Thank you all so much for your great work on the Zotero project.
  • I'm at it, but it's a lot more complicated than you describe it, will take a while
  • Thank you again for your help Adamsmith. Your efforts will help many of us that are submitting manuscripts for the Annual Review family of journals.

    OK - maybe start with this - go to the page, download the file using the link
    "Raw" on the top right, install by dragging to an open FF window.
    Please report back.
    Some of this is right now a pretty bad hack with too few macros and too many conditionals in the bibliography, once we've got the style fully sorted out I'll try to consolidate...
    Please report back with any problems
  • Hi Adam,

    We haven't found any stylistic bugs in the first pass, but there is a strange bug with this style numbering in reverse order. But, if I flip to another style (such as IEEE) and then back to your annual review style it is correct. On the plus side, the citation and bibliography are linked correctly, but in the wrong numeric order. Thanks!

    e.g. citation order
    (2)
    (1)

    e.g. bibliography order
    1.
    2.
  • thanks for reporting back. This is weird, but I have an idea of where it could be coming from. Could you give it another try, please? (just re-install after downloading from the same location).
  • I tried it on 3 different computers here in our labs, 2 macs and 1 PC (all running firefox), same problem.

    Also noticed that if you click "edit citation" and click cancel it tends to renumber the citations (differently, but again incorrectly)
  • did you re-install? I slightly changed the style before my last post - maybe wasn't clear on that.
  • No luck, I even tried deleting it completely before re-install.
  • You'll probably want to say what version of Zotero you're using.
  • 2.0b7.4 is the version we are using
  • just to let you know that I've been able to replicate this and am trying to find a solution right now.
  • I'm a little lost. I don't even know if I changed anything, but it seems to work now...
    try re-installing again?
    Please start trying this out in a completely new document to start (i.e. just try inserting a couple of citations with random text in between, see if they come out 1 2 3 )
    Then work with your existing document.
  • I've added a more sophisticated version of this style to the repository
    http://www.zotero.org/styles/annual-reviews-by-appearance/dev?install=1
    I'm hope (and I have tested in my setup) that the citation order issue doen't come up, although I still don't know why it ever occurred.
    Please report back here.
    The dependent styles as well as the alphabetically sorted style to come soon.

    Author-Date Styles for Annual Reviews differ by journal, so those need to be requested separately.
  • Thanks AdamSmith! It appears to be working for us now. Over the next couple of weeks, we will be using it to build our bibliography, and will let you know of any problems. Thanks for all the help on this project in particular, it will be a huge time saver for everyone using this journal from now on.
  • Brief update. In the style, the line

    <name initialize-with="" delimiter=", " and="text" name-as-sort-order="all" sort-separator=", "/>

    should be

    <name initialize-with="" delimiter=", " and="text" name-as-sort-order="all" sort-separator=" "/>
  • thanks, change committed ( you need to re-install the style to make the change unless you've already changed it locally)
