Upgrade StorageDistinguish audioRecording and podCast (both CSL type song)
Does anyone know a reliable way to distinguishing audioRecording and podCast entries in a CSL style? The reason for this is the CSL field medium which has to be displayed at a different place within citations/bibliographic entries for both types in one of my custom styles. I can think of the following differences between audioRecordings and podCasts: audioRecordings usually have a publisher, podCasts don't; also, podCasts often have a number but audioRecordings don't; the best thing would be to check whether the issued field only has a year (audioRecordings) or also month and day (podCasts). Unfortunately, I don't think it is possible to have a conditional check for date-parts in CSL. Best, Till.
This is an old discussion that has not been active in a long time. Before commenting here, you should strongly consider starting a new discussion instead. If you think the content of this discussion is still relevant, you can link to it from your new discussion.
But it gets worse: I just realized that podCast does not even have an issued field. (I know, I can give it through Zotero's extra field.) I think we really need a reliable way of distinguishing audioRecording from podCast. For example: audioRecording is often used, I assume, for records containing several tracks (Michael Jackson: Off The Wall, Epic Records: 1979). Therefore, a style that displays the title of audioRecording in italics (like books, for example) will also display the title of podCast in italics -- although it would make much more sense to give podCast's collection-title in italics and the title (of the episode) in quotes.
Is there any chance of getting this "fixed" in a future version of CSL and/or Zotero?
Thanks, Till.
