Upgrade StorageStyle Error: [Journal of Visualized Experiments]
It seems there is is a style error for the Journal of Visualized Experiments.
In their instructions they ask for Journal Abbreviation, "Write journal names in italics and list using ISO4 abbreviations. The city or country where a journal is located can be included in parenthesis with the journal name. For books or other works, a publisher name, city and country can be included."
With the current formatting, Zotero is pulling full Journal Names.
Can someone correct this formatting?
Thanks,
Megan

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.
Thanks for reporting this issue. I've put in a fix and the corrected style is now online in the repository. You can update that somewhere in the Zotero preferences or download here and install it.

Maurer, B. M., Doering, D., Scheipl, F., Kuechenhoff, H. & Erhard, M. H. Effects of a gentling programme on the behaviour of laboratory rats towards humansAppl Anim Behav Sci. 114 (3–4), 554–571, doi:10.1016/j.applanim.2008.04.013 (2008).
1. In the update, the space between the title of the article and the journal name has disappeared.
2. The period has also disappeared after the title.
2. There should NOT be a space between initials of authors first and last names.
3. There should not be an "&" before the final author.
4. There should be a space between "doi:" and "DOI" (the actual DOI).
The editor gave me this format for reference:
Lastname, F.I., LastName, F.I., LastName, F.I. Article Title. Source. Volume (Issue), FirstPage – LastPage, doi: DOI (YEAR).
This is from the style guide:
Citation Formatting: (in order)
• Last name, first and middle initials (if available). (List ALL authors: If there are more than six authors, list the first author and then state “et al.”)
• Include article, book, or chapter titles. Titles of books should be italicized, whereas article and chapter titles should not.
• Article titles should start with a capital letter and end with a period and should be exactly how they were published in the original work with no abbreviations or truncations.
• Write journal names in italics and list using ISO4 abbreviations. The city or country where a journal is located can be included in parenthesis with the journal name. For books or other works, a publisher name, city and country can be included.
• Write volume numbers in bold, followed by a space, issue number (in parentheses), a comma, and then a range of page numbers (start page – last page). A single page number or publisher item identifier, [pii], can be substituted for a range of page numbers (but should not be included in the DOI field in any referencing software).
• Year published (in parentheses), followed by a period. “Accepted” or “In Press” can be listed after the title or journal name and before the year.
Citation Examples:
Bedford, C.D., Harris, R.N., Howd, R.A., Goff, D.A., Koolpe, G.A. Quaternary salts of 2-[(hydroxyimino)methyl]imidazole. J Med Chem. 32 (2), 493-503 (1998).
Kioh, L.G. et al. Physical treatment in psychiatry. Blackwell Scientific Pubs. Boston. (1988).
I should've checked the whole style. It's very rudimentary and does the bare minimum and had mistakes in it.
Here are all the necessary changes. If you find more, let me know.

The only thing is that sometimes (seemingly randomly) Zotero is not pulling up the DOIs for my references.
1. Gartner, K., Buttner, D., Dohler, K., Friedel, R., Lindena, J., Trautschold, I. Stress Response of rats to handling and experimental procedures. Lab Anim. 14 (3), 267–274, doi: 10.1258/002367780780937454 (1980).
2. Brudzynski, S.M., Ociepa, D. Ultrasonic vocalization of laboratory rats in response to handling and touch. Physiol Behav. 52 (4), 655–660 (1992).
Both of these references have DOIs filled out in their info when I check in my zotero library. So I think that this problem is more likely a problem with Zotero rather than the citation file? I thought I would mention it here, but in case it's not though.
Thank you!
Example: "Handling rats can trigger fear-based responses towards humans,3,4"
When it should be: "Handling rats can trigger fear-based responses towards humans,3, 4"
In both of the above "3, 4" are supposed to be superscripts.
From the guide for authors:
• The corresponding reference numbers should appear as superscripts after the appropriate statement(s) in the text (before punctuation but after closed parenthesis). The references should be numbered in order of appearance.
• Multiple references should be separated by commas, or a dash for inclusive numbers (example2, 5 refers to references 2 and 5 while example2-5 refers to references 2 through 5).
