Upgrade StorageBibtex export organisation name
Is it possible to get Zotero to export an organisation name to Bibtex correctly? At present if I export anything with "The Department of Agriculture" as the author, it comes out in Bibtex as:
author = {The Department of Agriculture},
This formats in a citation as "of Agriculture, T. D.". I can manually edit the BibTex file to:
author = "{The Department of Agriculture}",
which will form a citation correctly, but it is a nuisance to manually edit a BibTex file every time I add a new reference and reexport it from Zotero.
Is there some way to get Zotero to insert "" as above whenever Zotero is set up to display the name as a string rather than "Surname, Initials"? If not, please consider this a feature request.
By the way, well done with all the work you've put in to this program, it is excellent overall.

joycekwcI agree with Samden. For some reason when I export to Endnote, the organisation names always have a comma inserted after the second last part of the name. I have to go in and change these manually - which isn't a big deal but annoying over time! Has anyone else found a workaround for this?

ajlyonThe RIS issue is, I believe, a bug. The specification (http://www.refman.com/support/risformat_tags_02.asp) is as vague as always, but I think we should be able to suppress the comma on names with only one part. You can try downloading my patched RIS translator from https://github.com/ajlyon/zotero-bits/raw/RIS.js and saving it to the translators directory of your Zotero data directory, then restarting Firefox. I think the comma should go away.
