• bweirnik, true, I hadn't thought about all the variants it would have to recognize, though it would be nice if it could at least recognize the full name of any language both in English and in the language itself (e.g. German and Deutsch). There woul…

• Yes, batch editing would be great! I often add books to my Zotero database from WorldCat, and the format of the language field varies a lot (sometimes English, sometimes EN, etc.). If I don't notice that it's "English" and change it to "EN," then th…

• OK, I'm going to reactivate this thread because I'm having the same problem. I'm using FF 15.0.1 (but I was using a previous version before, and had the same problem), and Zotero 3.0.8 (which I also updated from a previous version, but that did not …
