Title casing for English language items is quite "smart". The conversion seems to recognize the rules for articles, conjunctions, infinitives, prepositions, etc. Each other language has its own rules and conventions. It seems that these conventions …

Please note that MS Word is essentially a backup of your library only in printed form. When you said that you learned to sync your library with the Zotero add-on in Firefox, I hope that you are using the automatic Zotero sync to server function. …

@fbennett I posted the list of abbrevitions because I thought that you or others might find it useful. If you have time and agree that others may benefit please add the list to your abbreviations area. The list isn't especially useful to me personal…

I thought that the identifiers would be ignored on import. Would this work properly if the extra identifiers were removed leaving only the titles and abbreviations? I recognize that the structure of "my" JSON tags differ from the format you used a…

The proper case format for journal titles has been discussed before. I disagree with Sebastian's argument that because the entire journal title is a proper noun it should be title cased. Is it not better to enter journal titles in sentence case and…

I apologize. It is reachable now.

I have created two files (one in JSON format the other in csv format) of journal abbreviations. These 12,719 journals are from the SafetyLit database. About 1/3 of these journal titles are not in the NLM/PubMed list. Alas, I couldn't quite get the…

Please see my post above. Essentially all styles are written by volunteers. The link above will give you a guide to make the case for your style request. Be specific. What institutions require this style? Where is there an online document that provi…

I'm not certain what info to include here Please see the guide for requesting a style: https://github.com/citation-style-language/styles/wiki/Requesting-Styles

When this is fixed, please tell us what caused this behavior. I've been more puzzled than annoyed by this. What could be making the line break tag the only tag that gets repeated; and why always the why is it seven times?

I think that the most important problem with searching is the large number of false drops. This is especially an issue because of the feature requests by inexperienced users that are in reality a help requst. Their use of words that mean one thing t…

Please drop the "fairly useless" nav bar Google search. Even though I have learned from experience that I should go directly to the Search link in the left-hand column, I nonetheless sometimes absentmindedly try the nav bar search. I've never had mu…

I think that I get this error only when I start Zotero and the trash is open. I was going to suggest that, while the start-Zotero-with-the-last-open-collection function is really handy; it isnt so handy if the last opened collection was the trash.

I haven't been allowing myself to be involved in genealogy for several years. That said, I'm puzzled by your question. GEDCOM still isn't very friendly to source data. So, you are at the mercy of both the limitation of the GEDCOM system and the att…

DOIs are used for documents other than journal articles. Books, book chapters, conference papers, reports, etc. all can be ( and have been) assigned a DOI. PMID numbers are assigned only to documents indexed in the PubMed database. Until a couple o…

I'm on a Mac but the same sort of thing happened to me. I installed FF 13.0.1 and allowed the install process to restart FF. Then, it seemed I had no plugins at all. I quit FF and restarted FF and everything was fine. This happened on two computers …

I have had some success with BibUp an iPhone app from University of Fribourg. BibUp allows you to create bibliographic references by scanning books barcodes and extracts of text. The references, including the OCRed text, can be viewed on a web pag…

Beware of MS Academic Search. I use it but I do not depend upon it. I frequently find results with articles assigned to the wrong journal name and authors with somewhat similar (but not all that similar) names substituted for the correct author. Som…

Here are a few doi numbers for TFG journal articles that present the wrong date. The first example is for an article in the first issue in 2013 yet it has a 2011 year. I didn't search for much older journal articles that have a recent online-date (t…

I can probably find several links but not until tomorrow (Friday).

This also happens with some Taylor & Francis Group and Springer journals. As with Wiley the online-date is what they have in the metadata. I have sent email messages to each publisher but I have no joy to report. Maybe, if several people complai…

A few words about DOIs. The DOI Foundation is a not-for-profit entity but publishers pay for the DOI linking for each of their journals. Some publishers (even large ones) do not participate and their journal articles do not have DOIs. Other publish…

As an aside, an original date will be useful for reprints of "classic" journal articles when in a different contemporary journal.

I looked up the standard for journal titles. I didn't so thoroughly check for article titles. Another quick look it appears that mostly the case standards for article titles isn't specifically established by catalog standards entities. Where it is, …
-
...imho journal titles are proper names and should _never_ be in sentence case. While I tend to agree, it seems that those who set cataloging standards do not. I became even more OCD than usual and went searching for rules and why the rules. I found…

@Simon Yes, but only for styles that specify title-case.

Springer is not the only publisher with this problem. There are many journal records on PubMed that are also affected by misplaced html tags. IN addition to Springer journals, there are offenders that are worse -- particularly BMJ Group and LWW. Us…

The NLM is in the process of converting all journal titles to sentence case. During this conversion they are also beginning to use the full official title of the journal. Abbreviations of NLM-listed journals will not change (yet). There is talk of m…

One more try. Is anyone interested?

There is a partial English interface but all the background seems to be in Chinese. I use the site for those articles with English titles and abstracts. I will see if I can find someone at my institution who can give a better idea of what can be don…
