SpringerLink translator issue

Mishkafofer · September 10, 2010

I am working with articles on
www.springerlink.com
On many articles, Zotero works flawlessly 99.9%.
But I encountered one that don't.

I looked on Zotero website for Translator issue but Springer is not listed there (may be it's under other name?).
I also did Translator update but it didn't help either.

Abstract fetching.
I noticed that on Jstore, Zotero fetches abstract but on Springer (when it works) do not fetches abstract.

Another article with Translator error.
May be you will find whats in common with all the articles with errors.

there is no working Springer translators at the moment. When Zotero does work on Springer it picks up the DOI of an article and looks it up on Crossref - that produces an error if the article isn't listed in Crossref. (Note that when you hover over the article icon in the URL bar it says "Save to Zotero (DOI)"
Crossref never provides abstracts or tags.

I wasn't aware to Springer issue, the DOI workaround did a good job.
I hope in the future there will be translator to Springer.
Thank you for the quick answer.
