Upgrade StorageMHRA - adding Issue # to Journal Article citation/bibliography
Dear Zotero,
Another small question if I may... in the Ph.D. that I'm editing, the author references many relatively unknown journals from the early 1900s. For example:
Tret’yakov, Sergei, ‘Chem Zhivo Kino’, Novuy LEF, 1928
---, ‘Chto Novogo’, Novuy LEF, 1928
---, ‘Fotomontazhi Khudozhnika-bolshevika’, Sovetskoe Foto, 1935
---, ‘Gazeta Na Shestakh’, Novuy LEF, 1927
---, ‘Kak Desyatiletit’’, Novuy LEF, 1927
---, ‘Kino k Yubileyu’, Novuy LEF, 1927
---, ‘Lef i Nep’, LEF, 1923
... these Novuy LEF and LEF are journals, and given the limited information about them, what really distinguishes them is the Issue #.
For example, for this entry:
---, ‘Gazeta Na Shestakh’, Novuy LEF, 1927
... I have in Zotero the Issue number (#9) which would help distinguish it from all the other 1927 Novuy LEF's that follow. If you see what I mean.
Is it difficult to add Issue # to the citation and bibliography for journal articles? For example,
---, 'Gazeta Na Shestakh', Novuy LEF, No. 9, 1927
Thank you in advance, I hope it makes sense...
Best,
Martin

you'll have to see where best to place this and you may have to add a comma to the prefix or so.
<if type="article-journal">
<choose>
<if variable="volume">
<text macro="issued" prefix=" (" suffix=")"/>
</if>
<else>
<text macro="issued" prefix=", "/>
</else>
</choose>
</if>
... in here as an <else-if ?>
>_<
Also - the style already does volume numbers - are you sure these are issues and note volumes?
I was wondering the same thing re: issues vs. volumes... I'm basically reformatting tons of footnotes, and when it comes to these journal entries, the only information I have is:
Sergei Tret’yakov, ‘Gazeta na shestakh’, Novuy Lef, No 10, 1927, p. 19.
Now... once I figured out that "Novuy Lef" was a Russian journal from 1920s 1930s, I figured that "No. 10" likely referred to the 10th issue for that year, rather than volumes. Especially since the production/distribution of this journal was relatively limited... probably an issue a month?...
So, I don't think it's a volume... but it's hard to say since the publication is quite old. :O
Any thoughts are welcome.
Best,
Martin
I found that this:
<macro name="volume">
<choose>
<if type="article-journal">
<text variable="volume"/>
<text variable="issue" prefix=", No. "/>
</if>
... worked for the Bibliography perfectly (yay!) but did not show up for the Citation. I tried adding:
<text macro="volume"/>
Into the <citation> section, and got 2 volume entries and the Issue number. (ie, Novuy Lef, 10, 10, No. 1)...
... think I'm just making a mess of things. Perhaps I could leave the Issue #s alone.
