[bug] incorrect metadata import for book sections

abcxyz20250421 · October 11, 2025

When importing some articles which are published in book sections, e.g. conference proceedings, the article authors are imported as "book authors" instead. For example, importing https://epubs.siam.org/doi/10.1137/1.9781611978322.31

bump as this seems it has not been fixed but rather has become a different bug: it now just imports the metadata for the parent book rather than the article/book section which should have its own metadata (.31 in the example url in the above comment specifying this section, see https://search.crossref.org/search/works?q=10.1137/1.9781611978322.31&from_ui=yes which shows that this section/article has distinct metadata from the book https://search.crossref.org/search/works?q=10.1137/1.9781611978322&from_ui=yes)

(current zotero 10.0.1 just imports the book metadata, note this is the import in-app by pasting the DOI which can be reproduced with pasting e.g. 10.1137/1.9781611978322.31 into the Zotero "add items by identifier" )

(Note: import works fine from the editor site)
