Upgrade StorageStyle Change Request: Chemistry Education Research and Practice
The current CSL file (https://www.zotero.org/styles/chemistry-education-research-and-practice) is incorrect for the Royal Society of Chemistry journal Chemistry Education Research and Practice.
The description on the website for the journal says:
"Submissions to the journal should use Harvard referencing.
Citations in the text should therefore be made by use of the surname of the author(s) and the year of the publication, at the appropriate place. Note that with one or two authors the name(s) are given, while if the source has three or more authors, it is cited with the first named author as 'Author et al.'
When more than one source is cited in the text, they should be listed in chronological and then alphabetical order for example, '(Jones, 2001; Smith, 2001; Adams, 2006)'. The references themselves are given at the end of the final printed text, in alphabetical and, if the same author is cited more than once, chronological order. "
An example reference is included (see: http://www.rsc.org/journals-books-databases/about-journals/chemistry-education-research-practice/#journal-specific-guidelines).
A better look at references is to view a recently published article which is open-access: see http://pubs.rsc.org/en/content/articlehtml/2017/rp/c7rp00064b?page=search
The issues are that the current CSL file are that authors are listed incorrectly. They should be listed as '1st_author_last_name First_initial. Second_initial., 2nd_Author_last_name First_Initial. Second_Initial., etc.'
As seen in the current CSL file, the authors are referenced as "First_initial. Second_initial. Last_name,..." Additionally, the year of publication is incorrect. It should be listed following the authors in parentheses.
The Journal itself offers EndNote formatting files but no general CSL file to be used with Zotero or Mendeley (EndNote file available here: http://www.rsc.org/journals-books-databases/journal-authors-reviewers/author-tools-services/ OR http://endnote.com/downloads/style/chemistry-education-research-and-practice-cerp)
I hope this can be easily updated soon to be used by this community.

This needed a whole new style made as this journal is the only one from the RSC with their own independent style.

I was trying to use de CSL you posted in 2017. But I have noticed it is different from the requirements of the Chemistry Educ Res and Practice.
Some issues:
The title of books is not in italics;
There is no comma after the journal title;
Also, in chapters reference, there is neither a comma after the name of the chapter nor the name of book (examplo below).
The references are numbered, but the style should only be alphabetical.
24. Collins T. J., (1997), Green Chemistry. in Lagowski J. J. (ed.), Macmillan encyclopedia of chemistry. New York: Macmillan Reference USA, pp. 691–697.
I appreciate if anyone can help.
Best wishes,
numbers> removed
book> title in italics. fixed.
article-journal, no comma> that's not correct. The style has a comma after the journal title
chapter> fixed where necessary based on a real example. That example you give doesn't seem to be correct. Where did you get it from?
This article has a chapter and book in the references> https://pubs.rsc.org/en/content/articlepdf/2019/rp/c8rp00288f?page=search
fixed style> https://github.com/citation-style-language/styles/raw/3582f761d4f8d7c4f04e53b6583587861e170a57/chemistry-education-research-and-practice.csl
Thanks for your ready answer.
The example I posted is from a paper I am writing.
The link to the fixed style you provided directs to a page to the source code I think.
I was wondering if the style could please be updated to include the DOI at the end of the reference?
See an example here:
Zheng C., Erickson A. G., Kingston N. M. and Noonan P. M., (2014), The relationship between self-determination, selfconcept, and academic achievement for students with learning disabilities, J. Learn. Disabilities, 47(5), 462–474, DOI: 10.1177/0022219412469688.
Journal title in italics
Volume in bold
DOI is hyperlinked
Many thanks if this change could be made.
