The format for video recordings is missing the [Video] descriptor and the publisher the format gives the example for a TED talk: Author, A. (Year, Month day). Title of TED talk in italic sentence case [Video]. TED Conferences. URL
for a youtube video: Author, A. [username]. (Year, Month day). Title of video in italic sentence case [Video]. YouTube. URL
As my tutor just pointed out to me: When referencing Academic Dissertations/Thesis, the format should be: Lastname, F. M. (Year). Title of dissertation or thesis (Publication No.) [Doctoral dissertation or master’s thesis, Name of Institution Awarding Degree]. Database Name. At the moment Zotero is putting the Institutions name after the [brackets]...
Hi! I am using APA 7th shown in German but my papers are in English. So sometimes I have a German titeled book or test etc. and therefore, have to provide an English translation. Where can I deposit the translation and e.g. additional information as manual so that it is not shown in italics and on the right place? Jerusalem, M., & Schwarzer, R. (n.d.). Allgemeine Selbstwirksamkeitserwartung (SWE) [General Expectation of Self-Efficacy (SWE)] [Manual]. http://userpage.fu-berlin.de/~health/germscal.htm or Lüdecke, D. (2020). sjPlot: Data visualization for statistics in social science (R package version 2.7.2) [Computer software]. Comprehensive R Archive Network. https://CRAN.R-project.org/package=sjPlot Where can I deposit (R package version 2.7.2) [Computer software]? Thank you so much for your help!
@Sylvia_P. I would recommend this slightly simpler format instead:
Lüdecke, D. (2020). sjPlot: Data visualization for statistics in social science (Version 2.7.2) [R package]. Comprehensive R Archive Network. https://CRAN.R-project.org/package=sjPlot
It's fine to be more specific with the format description than "Computer software". For that, put "R package" in the "System" or "Programming Language" field and "2.7.2" in the "Version" field.
If you do want to use both "computer software" and "R package", then put "R package" in "Programming Language", "2.7.2" in "Version", and "Computer Software" in the "System".
Depuis plusieurs années nous recommandons l’utilisation du style de citation « American Psychological Association 6th edition (Provost) (French - Canada) » à nos étudiant·e·s en Suisse. Il n’est malheureusement plus adapté à nos besoins depuis la mise en conformité avec la typographie canadienne https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/82278/apa-6th-edition-provost-french-canada-style
Nous aimerions maintenant recommander l’APA 7th qui fonctionne parfaitement en français à l’exception du format de date lorsque le jour et le mois sont requis. En français le jour devrait en effet figurer avant le mois (2020, 9 novembre).
Serait-il possible d’adapter le style csl pour la langue « Français (France) » et « Français (Canada) » ?
Exemple pour un article de journal (newspaper article) - référence générée automatiquement depuis Zotero
Avec le style « American Psychological Association 6th edition (Provost) (French - Canada) » ou « École de technologie supérieure - APA (French - Canada) »
Is there a way to use a shortened author or abbreviation for in-text citations? This is described in section 8.21 of the 7th edition manual:
>If a reference has a group author, the name of the group can sometimes be abbreviated--for example, "American Psychological Association" can be abbreviated to "APA." You are not obligated to abbreviate the name of a group author, but you can if the abbreviation is well-known, will help avoid cumbersome repetition, or will appear at least three times in the paper.
So, for example, the in-text citation would be (APA, 2017). But the full reference would have APA spelled out:
I've got a weird issue with Zotero and Word on a mac. Set the style to APA 7th edition and it would *occasionally* render the author-date entry for book sections as (Peter Troxler, 2016) instead of (Troxler, 2016) and for books as (P. Troxler, 2015) instead of (Troxler, 2015). Any idea what's going on?
@wjakethompson Support for institutional abbreviations is coming in CSL version 1.1, which will be released in 2021. For now, I suggest entering the author as the abbreviation and putting the full organization name in the Publisher field.
APA 7, Table 8.1 says that narrative citations with two authors should be "Salas and D’Agostino (2020)", but pandoc (via R Markdown in R Studio) is rendering as "Salas & D’Agostino (2020)".
Any idea how I can resolve this?
YAML:
... bibliography: references.bib csl: apa.csl
Apologies if this is the wrong forum. I'm working my way through:
You can't currently automate narrative citations fully, that's right. Just like in Zotero (suppress author) you can generate citations in pandoc (and thus Rmd) with only the year and then write the authors (i.e. Salas and D’Agostino) in the text, i.e. Salas and D'Agostino [-@salas_dagostino2020]
Actually, there’s an even simpler format for generating narrative citations in pandoc (provided the year is to appear right after the author(s)): Just write @salas_dagostino2020, without any square braces.
That disambiguation: You have another Smith et al. 2021 item (but with different coauthors) cited and this is how APA requires you to distinguish the two in citations.

to find the right approach to fix this for my use case.
I think the answer is "Not possible until CSL 1.1 release."

Salas and D'Agostino [-@salas_dagostino2020]see https://rmarkdown.rstudio.com/authoring_bibliographies_and_citations.html#Citation_Syntax
@salas_dagostino2020, without any square braces.For three Authors, the intext citation should be (Smith et al., 2021).
However, I am noticing that in-text for three authors is (Smith, Kelly, et al., 2021) for some papers.
Whereas, for others with 3, the citation is correct.
Any ideas what might be the difference between one journal versus another?
