katechon · November 29, 2012

hello,
i wanted to make a new Croatian locale to modify one citation style. but i'm totally new and i'm still learning so i'm not sure exactly which steps should i take.
please can someone see the next threads and try to explain me what should i do:
https://github.com/citation-style-language/styles/issues/295
https://github.com/citation-style-language/locales/commit/255d53f9d635e108283217b4ff73c497b43b3929

I added your Croatian CSL locale to the CSL locales repository, but this file won't appear in Zotero until the next Zotero update.

In the meantime, you should be able to include the entire Croatian locale data within your style of interest. An example of this can be seen at https://github.com/citation-style-language/styles/blob/master/foerster-geisteswissenschaft.csl

thanx! i tried to make it with your proposition, but it's appear not to be a valid style file:

There is an XML comment that isn't closed. (there is a " "; search for "MAKROS" and you'll find it)

Validation results:

ok, this is original csl style:
https://gist.github.com/4169486
i want there manual to put croatian locale. i tried to merge it with your proposition (https://github.com/citation-style-language/styles/blob/master/foerster-geisteswissenschaft.csl) and i just renamed the items form german to croatian or serbian latin.
so, my question ist: which part should i cut from your proposition and where should i paste it in original csl?

The current translation in Croatian is not good. How can I fix it?
In particular, the names of months are not in Croatian.

The current Croatian localization for the citation styles can be found at https://github.com/citation-style-language/locales/blob/master/locales-hr-HR.xml

You can fix the errors in the localization and then submit them with a pull request on github. More information about how localization files work https://github.com/citation-style-language/locales/wiki/Translation-Instructions and how to submit it afterwards https://github.com/citation-style-language/styles/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md
