Bruce, I do have the latest versions of Zotero and the OO plugin. The problem seems to be in I'm still working with the squirrelly American Antiquity and American Anthropologist styles. The author section needs to be in a block so that the the …

Replying to Bruce about line spacing. The problem is that I can set the correct line spacing in the word processor (Open Office), but as soon as I have to change the bibliography, Zotero overrides the spacing and adds extra line feeds. So there is s…

Odd or not, that's the one we need to use (and the related American Antiquity style). I used the draft American Antiquity style for an actual paper (instead of just some test references). Here are the issues. Every time you make a change, it re…

Amazing. This works. Thanks.
-
I did this Mark, and said it was based on your American Anthropologist style. Could I convince you to go ahead and post that style, too, where it's at now. It should look at least as good as the American Antiquity style, although I think you s…

I've committed an American Antiquity style to the SVN. It is not perfect, but is quite usable and will hopefully encourage further work on this style. I played around with various ways of blocking the bibliography entries. Indeed, the new inline-blo…

Thanks much. This is good news.

Second post, question about where to post what: While I'm not new to open source projects (I'm a dev on a project), I'm still trying to get clear where to post on styles for Zotero. Following the instructions on the Zotero site, I posted a styl…

Commenting on 2 items in 2 posts: Bibliography style: Following various discussions I think what we need is 2 blocks. 1) The first is an author block with a hanging indent so that if the number of authors exceeds a single line, it w…

If I understand your comments in the AAA citation style test, I have a suggestion that might make this a little easier. Looking at the style guides for American Anthropologist and American Antiquity and their examples, it is not necessary for the ci…

Thank you all for collaborating on this. If James has the most correct version of the AAA style, I'd like to suggest that it get posted to the SVN. The more people that use it, the greater the chance to find someone else to help fix it. I am h…

Here is a nicer version of the American Anthropologist and American Antiquity styles workaround. It is a further tweak of the American Anthropologist style created by Mark Dingemanse. I've posted the styles and PDF's of example output (from OO) at …

Please excuse this showing up in a couple of places, but it was mentioned here and I'm looking for the best place to post it to reach someone developing CSL. It has been raised in another forum, but ended with saying updates are needed to CSL. …

I want to echo the request for American Antiquity, American Anthropologist, and related styles. This needs enhancement to CSL for 1) tabs before and after the date, and 2) omitting the author after the first bibliographic entry if there are mo…

Has anyone here tried cb2Bib for the Mac OS X (I have 10.5.6 AKA leopard). I just tried downloading and using it, and it crashed on launching (all binary versions available on links from the cb2Bib site). The error is that a Qt dylib is missing. Sho…

The EndNote style needs tweaking too. Having a style that is functional, even if not quite right is much better than not having one at all. Also, if we have one that is functional with some work, it might encourage more people to use Zotero and more…

I have an ugly but functional workaround to the no-tabs problem. You can take a look at the results at http://www.public.asu.edu/~cmbarton/files/zotero/. I modified the American Anthropologist style to add "@@" at the 2 places that need tabs. Just d…

So I gave this a try. You can take a look at the results at http://www.public.asu.edu/~cmbarton/files/zotero/. I modified the American Anthropologist style to add "@@" at the 2 places that need tabs. Just do a find/replace, adjust the hanging …
-
Actually, at least for the references supported, the aaa-imperfect.csl style seems to have solved (1), though other reports suggest it may not work in some contexts. An ugly but functional workaround for (2) would be to embed some kind of code (e.b.…
-
I tried the style generator just to get the basic idea of what the different XML parts were. Then was trying to edit it manually. I just tried the AAA style at the link you provided. It looks very good. It would be helpful if this was more eas…
-
I just tried this. It looks very good. Any way to put a tab before and after the date? It would be very good to have this style (and others in progress) available on a central Zotero page--maybe a page of styles in progress. It shouldn't be too hard…
-
I played around with the online simple style generator to see what would be involved in creating an American Antiquity or American Anthropologist style. I ran into 2 issues I can't find out how to do in the CSL docs for Zotero. How do you …
-
I thought you were referring to American Antiquity.
-
I tried this out for the American Antiquity style. It is a very useful site with a lot of potential. Thanks for working on this. I guess I don't quite understand the formatting. I wanted a hanging indent with a line feed between the last author…
-
Can you post the csl file somewhere? Maybe a 'works in progress' page for CSL's? If everything is working except the formatting of the multiple author references, it would be very useful to have this available anyway. The multiple author refer…
-
The styles I am looking for (various anthropology related, including American Antiquity and American Anthropologist) have already been requested. There is a lengthy thread on them. It might make creating these CSL files easier if the *.ens fil…

That's not what I meant, but I did figure it out. I assumed erroneously that clicking multiple tags was the equivalent of a Boolean "or", when in fact it is a Boolean "and". 'Show all tags' was clicked by default. When I clicked a tag, most oth…
-
I am very interested in this too. Here is some information on the relevant EndNote styles (from my legal copy). When you first generate a bibliography with EndNote, using a style like American Antiquity, it seems to produce a poor format for t…

It's not EndNote styles that you make yourself, but but also some styles downloaded from EndNote work and some don't. A couple journals whose formats I use a lot (American Antiquity and American Anthropologist) produce these errors; some other EndNo…
