Some edits to Society of Biblical Literature
I just have a few edits to ask about:
1. Subsequent bibliographic entries should be preceded by ten hash marks, or ideally, a solid line ten spaces long.
ex.
Wilder, Amos. //Eschatology and Ethics in the Teaching of Jesus.// New York: Harper & Bros, 1939.
----------. //Early Christian Rhetoric: The Language of the Gospel.// Cambridge, Mass.: Harvard University Press, 1971.
2. Is there a way to include Series Abbreviations as well as Journal Abbreviations. Almost all biblical commentaries come out of series, but I haven't found a way to abbreviate them. They should be abbreviated in the footnote, but complete in the bibliography
ex.
^4^ Mitchell Dahood, //Psalms// (3 vols.; AB 16-17A; Garden City: Doubleday, 1965-1970), 3:127
Dahood, Mitchell. //Psalms// 3 vols. Anchor Bible 16-17A. Garden City: Doubleday, 1965-1970.
thanks all!

Obviously the extra field can only be one thing at once - but it should be possible to use "extra" in the footnotes and "collection title" in the bibliography - I'd be surprised if that didn't work.
<macro name="collection-title">
<text variable="collection-title"/>
<text variable="collection-number" prefix=" "/>
</macro>
to be
<macro name="collection-title">
<text variable="extra"/>
<text variable="collection-number" prefix=" "/>
</macro>
but it doesn't read the "extra" field, it's just blank. I used the "URL" field because it would copy in.
Regardless, whatever I had listed as the collection-title in this macro was set for the bibliography.
Here are the footnote markings:
Original (Collection-title)
John M. Allegro, ed., Qumran Cave 4: I (4Q158-4Q186) (Discoveries in the Judean Desert 5; Oxford: Oxford University Press, 1968).
Desired
John M. Allegro, ed., Qumran Cave 4: I (4Q158-4Q186) (DJD 5; Oxford: Oxford University Press, 1968).
so should be <text variable="note"/>
n:
John M. Allegro, ed., Qumran Cave 4: I (4Q158-4Q186) (DJD 5; Oxford: Oxford University Press, 1968).
Bib:

It looks to me like the Bibliography just takes the macro from "collection-title" and uses that for the bibliography. How do I separate the two?
so you put the old "collection-title" macro back in, but add another one that's "collection-title-note" as above with the "note" variable.
Then, in the citation section of the style - replace <text macro="collection-title"/> with
<text macro="collection-title-note"/>
<macro name="collection-title-note">
<text variable="note"/>
<text variable="collection-number" prefix=" "/>
</macro>
<macro name="collection-title">
<text variable="collection-title"/>
<text variable="collection-number" prefix=" "/>
</macro>
***brk***(This was the only other place that used collection-title)
<macro name="issue-note">
<choose>
<if type="article-journal">
<text variable="volume" prefix=" "/>
<text variable="issue" prefix=", no. "/>
<text macro="issued" prefix=" (" suffix=")"/>
</if>
<else-if variable="publisher-place publisher" match="any">
<group prefix=" (" suffix=")">
<group delimiter="; " suffix="; ">
<text macro="container-contributors-note"/>
<text macro="locators-note"/>
<text macro="collection-title-note"/>
</group>
<group delimiter=", ">
<group delimiter=" ">
<choose>
<if variable="title" match="none"> </if>
<else-if type="thesis speech" match="any">
<text variable="genre"/>
</else-if>
</choose>
<text macro="event"/>
</group>
<text macro="publisher"/>
<text macro="issued"/>
</group>
</group>
</else-if>
<else>
<text macro="issued" prefix=", "/>
</else>
</choose>
</macro>
And for the bibliography
<bibliography>
<option name="hanging-indent" value="true"/>
<option name="et-al-min" value="6"/>
<option name="et-al-use-first" value="6"/>
<option name="subsequent-author-substitute" value="----------"/>
<option name="entry-spacing" value="1"/>
<sort>
<key macro="sort-key"/>
</sort>
<layout suffix=".">
<group delimiter=". ">
<text macro="contributors"/>
<text macro="title"/>
<text macro="description"/>
<text macro="secondary-contributors"/>
<text macro="container-title"/>
<text macro="container-contributors"/>
</group>
<text macro="locators"/>
<text macro="collection-title" text-case="capitalize-first" prefix=". "/>
<text macro="issue"/>
<text macro="locators-newspaper" prefix=", "/>
<text macro="locators-journal"/>
<text macro="access" prefix=". "/>
"/>
</layout>
</bibliography>
I know there is a desire to be elegant with the code, but this seems to work:
Fn:
John M. Allegro, ed., Qumran Cave 4: I (4Q158-4Q186) (DJD 5; Oxford: Oxford University Press, 1968).
Bib:
Allegro, John M., ed. Qumran Cave 4: I (4Q158-4Q186). Discoveries in the Judean Desert 5. Oxford: Oxford University Press, 1968.
Thanks! Is there a way I can go about suggesting this to other people? There has been some chatter looking for Series Abbreviations in the forums already.
I'll see if I can find out if series abbr. is going to be included in zotero.
Ulrich, Eugene. “Daniel, Book of.” Pages 171-174 in Encyclopedia of the Dead Sea Scrolls. Edited by Lawrence H. Schiffman and James VanderKam. New York: Oxford University Press, 2000.
would be
Eugene Ulrich, “Daniel, Book of,” //EDSS// 171-174.
Is there a way to do that naturally in Zotero? That seems like it's going to be a lot of editing.
Thanks a lot!
It hasn't yet been mapped to a field in Zotero, though.
