MODS export with split pagination
Greetings,
I have several articles with split pagination something like:
Wells, Louis T. 1977. The Harley masks of northeast Liberia. African arts 10(2). 22–27, 91–92. doi:10.2307/3335179. https://www.jstor.org/stable/3335179.
But newspaper articles also often have non-sequential pagination.
I use the Zotero MODS export and when there is a citation with split pagination the converter takes the comma and makes the entity before the comma equal to "Page Start" and the entity after the comma equal to "Page End".
the MODS code loos like:
<extent unit="pages">
<start>107-150, 233-237</start>
<end 107-150, 233-237</end>
</extent>
this makes the citation look like:
Wells, Louis T. 1977. The Harley masks of northeast Liberia. African arts 10(2). 22–27-91–92-22–27-91–92. doi:10.2307/3335179. https://www.jstor.org/stable/3335179.
Is this a known bug? Is there a remedy?

I did send a request out to the MODS community to see what the markup should look like. I got one reply. See: https://listserv.loc.gov/cgi-bin/wa?A2=ind1902&L=MODS&P=5566
Moved to a new thread (see request for this below).
