I've encountered this question before but, as I remember the answer was to do with Greek alphabet characters versus other alphabetical characters in the sentence. @bwiernik Is this your area if experience?

Even though NotePad has recently been improved, I believe that it still has a problem with line-endings compatibility (I might be wrong). Someone else should comment on my statement and if I am correct maybe they can recommend a text editor that is …

I think that you are missing something about how to easily use Zotero with Word. The video concerns author date style but the same steps apply to numbered styles. Please watch from the beginning. It seems that you may not be using the Zotero toolbar…

https://iubmb.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/hub/journal/15216551/author-guidelines.html There is likely to be an existing Zotero style that fills your need.

I often see APA-style journal articles with parenthetical journal name disambiguations. I'll try to remember to post example DOIs here. Please also see @adamsmith and my comments about the ethical necessity of getting a useful journal name in your …

Another example of unfortunate journal names that included organization names is "Injury prevention: journal of the International Society for Child and Adolescent Injury Prevention". The ISCAIP organization only lasted a very few years. But the memo…

@popwatson The Journal of experimental psychology--- You picked a good example for the question of journals with extended names: There is not a current journal with that exact official name. The journal with that name ended in 1974. In 1975 the …

Yes, however citation _count_ information from GS can be inflated because (unlike Scopus, Web of Knowledge, etc.) GS citations are derived by machine observations without human input that removes duplicates. Also, although perhaps desirable, the GS …

@adamsmith I was _not_ arguing that the expanded titles with organization names be included in Zotero metadata to be cited. Indeed, although publisher-provided metadata includes the long title when presented to database systems via FTP, my and other…

Simply using a VPN will not resolve the GS limits imposed if their system "thinks" you are downloading too many items. The Google system is "smarter" than most of our abilities to attempt getting around their limits. Although the metadata available…

Concerning, "The Journal of neuroscience : the official journal of the Society for Neuroscience." That was the official name of the journal when they applied for and received their ISSN. There are literally hundreds of examples where the official (…

See: https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/74882/incorrect-journal-title-addiction#latest Concerning "The..." : Some journal publishers vigorously insist (demand by nasty letters from attorneys) that the titles of their journals begin with the word…

When there are two of more journals with the same name it is standard practice to include the original place of publication in the "official" titles and abbreviations to distinguish one from the other(s). When a journal ceases publication under a ti…

This is also an issue for author names of other nationalities: 'Ofanoa, Malakai Mahu 't Hart, Bernhard Marius 't Mannetje, Andrea (for the purposes of this forum I used the apostrophe character) This is a very interesting topic for me as I've b…

While the idea of citation name vs display name has some merit, the Chicago and APA citation rules for using the fullest name for all references by an author don't argue for double author fields. As for pen names "aka Twain" and other pseudonyms, th…

Are these not older books that have since reprinted? Are these scans of these older books into pdf versions? Are these commercially available pdf items or did you receive these from a colleague? I ask these questions because the nature and quality…

I'm going to partially answer you because today is a holiday in the USA and some of the more informed volunteers may be with occupied with family things. 1) I used an earlier version of Zotero with about 18K records and it did perform a little more…

If you have not recently updated Mandeley DO NOT update it before you try to export/import. (sorry for the shout) Someone else can give you more detailed advice and also advice if you have recently updated Mandeley. It is a holiday in the USA and …

Someone else will need to ask you specific questions about your custom style so that you may receive help. In the meantime, Zotero and all other bib-manager software cannot automatically convert title case titles to sentence case (but can have reas…

"... tons of money ..." is an undercount. My university's EBSCO subscription is more than US$1.3 million a year. That subscription omits many of the available EBSCO databases. Subscription cost is based on the number of users and the selection of da…

The way I deal with this is to add the date [in square brackets] to the title of each item. This requires additional editing both of the Zotero record and maybe to the bibliography. It is common for reports by local, state, and national health agenc…

Just to add to the confusion "academic" versions of the standard styles sometimes demand DOIs always when available and I'm aware of at least one academic case where no DOIs are allowed--ever. I really cannot see a non-confusing UI change that coul…

Is the error from Zotero or from NVivo? Are you exporting your Zotero library in RIS format to analyze that text file with NVivo? [Edit I haven't worked with NVivo for a long time but their tech support was always asking about the amount of RAM in…

Someone else may be able to provide a better solution and an updated translator. However, the IEEE website organization and their associated / embedded metadata is undergoing changes and more changes. I solve this problem by pasting the items' doi …

Are you using a standard or a customized Zotero style? What bibliographic style are you using? What are your language settings (OS, Zotero, word processor, and Published item)? What is different about item 5 from the other references?

@djross3 said "...if there is anything else I can do... Yes, there is. Please moderate your aggressive, belligerent tone. Your impatience doesn't help to motivate anyone. @adamsmith is a hardworking volunteer. He takes pride in his contributions. …

@dstillman I use a Mac and I've had this (minor) issue ever since I updated from Z4 to early 5 betas. (I don't recall if it existed with Z-4 versions but it likely did.) This issue is not unique to Zotero. It occurs with the local client of Quick Bo…

Is there a role for the short title field here?

This may not be a Zotero issue. Beginning on last Thursday night, PubMed has been undergoing significant maintenance. While searches have been available throughout, there have been a few hours each day when downloading metadata of the search result…

I bring up rumors that I hear in library (and some other) circles so that they can be reasonable squashed. It isn't as though something like this rises to the level of something to be mentioned on Snopes. There are likely to be other rumors. Mentio…
