take off month from vancouver style

luna82
Hi somebody knows how to get out the month froma vancouver citation? I cannot understand why my zotero put the month (in italian) in all my references!!! Help!
  • adamsmith
    the month is part of the standard form of Vancouver/NLM citations. There are a couple of Vancouver and related styles available on zotero.org/styles that don't use the month, find one of those that fits for you.
    This may help:

    thanks for your support but i'm still not able to get it. My journal need the vancouver style that looks like that: Brenner S, Tur E, Shapiro J et al. Pemphigus vulgaris: environmental factors. Occupational, behavioral, medical, and qualitative food frequency questionnaire. Int J Dermatol 2001; 40:562–9.
    I try all the vancouver style but nothing match! can you help me more??

    "i'm still not able to get it" doesn't really tell me what you've tried and what isn't working.
  • adamsmith
    or in other words - among the Vancouver styles available:
    http://zotero.org/styles?q=vancouver
    there are five or six that don't print the month. What's wrong with those?
  • luna82
    ok sorry, none of these style match the following:
    - superscript without ( )
    - three names and then et al
    - year after the journal name

    what journal is this for?
  • luna82
    british journal of dermatology
  • adamsmith
    I don't think there's a perfect fit (and this isn't vancouver style, especially not the citations for book chapters), but for journal articles "The Lancet" should work nicely.

    Thanks so much!
    I really appreciate your help!
