In case this wasn't too clear: The above is a proposal to patch the official chicago-author-date.csl. Any comments? Would you prefer a pull request?

I have been using this patch for a while now without problems:--- chicago-author-date.csl 2014-05-23 03:53:00.000000000 +0100 +++ chicago-author-date-journal-series.csl 2014-07-05 17:35:23.000000000 +0100 @@ -432,8 +432,15 @@ …

Regarding a somewhat related issue, http://www.chicagomanualofstyle.org/qanda/latest.html, in the June 2014 Q&A, recommended the following: Q. We are currently revising the references of a book chapter and have come across the following problem:…

@fbennett - Thank you for the hints. It seems the patch below works as expected now, for both Zotero and pandoc. @adamsmith - Would you care to have a look, and possibly update the official chicago-author-date.csl as well as other chicago styles? …

OK, the Chicago Full-note style now supports book reviews. Simply use the title of the book as "Title" and add the book author as "Reviewed Author". I'm waiting to push this out across the CMoS styles to hear back from some people trying this out to…

Thank you. And, yes, dates (re)appear if indentation in YAML is fixed. For comparison, my example file is now at https://gist.github.com/anonymous/875b09b6e52218e28db6
-
Thank you. One small issue remains, however: A Zotero entry with Author (first) = "First,! Jr." is exported to: author = {von Last, ! Jr, First}, The "!" should be removed since neither bibtex nor biblatex will see it as a formatting directive b…

To get the species name in the example rendered correctly, it should be "title": "Xylose fermentation by Saccharomyces cerevisiae",
-
Import only: that's my proposal.

If I put '5' in for the series field in the second example above (which is what I would ideally like to be able to do, with CSL generating the appropriate ordinal and abbreviation according to the style, as it does for editions)I like this idea, and…
-
Still, for the record and/or future reference, CMoS does recommend to be precise in such cases (http://www.chicagomanualofstyle.org/qanda/data/faq/topics/Documentation.html?page=5):Q. I’m trying to complete a bibliographic entry for a chapter in a m…

Another CSL-JSON export issue: "Presenter" fields of item type "Presentation" are currently not exported at all. They should be mapped to "author" (as zotero does, apparently, when sending such entries to citeproc-js).
-
Well, the way I understand CMoS, they prefer month/season over issue if both are available. Still, also given the current inability to test for presence of month/season, I see your proposal as a practicable solution. For your no. 4., however, journ…
-
I thought this was fixed in citeproc-js a while ago, but it seems Zotero still uses a default of match=any for conditionals, so based on this line in oscola.csl Zotero renders the journal title etc. while pandoc-citeproc, using a default of match=…
-
I'm going to capitulate here.Please don't. It’s somewhat hidden, but the rule behind this seems to be in CMoS 16e, “15.46 Parentheses with issue number”: “… the issue number may be omitted if pagination is continuous throughout a volume or when a m…
-
CMoS staff confirmed by email that the format I suggested is correct. ("Yes, that looks good. Note, however, that if a month is given, the issue number may be omitted. Please see CMOS 14.180.") Again, I would prefer to have both issue and month inc…

For @inbook - what would a book section without a book author be, then? Wouldn't that be better as @inbook than as @incollection?From a systematic point of view, the presence or absence of a book author is the distinctive feature between inbook and …
-
Rather than leaving out the month altogether, even when no issue is given, the format should be modified to: Anderson, R. J., J. A. Hughes, and W. W. Sharrock. 1987. “Executive Problem Finding: Some Material and Initial Observations.” Social Psycho…

But how about if you cite an introduction witten by someone other than the book's author? What would that be in BibLaTeX (in Zotero that would be a book section with an author and book author)? If we follow what nickbart says, that would be classifi…
-
Leaving "philosophical" issues aside, I feel the solution to the question of how Zotero items "Book" and "Book Chapter" should be exported to biblatex is straightforward: From a pragmatic point of view, the difference between biblatex "book" and "c…
-
Maybe then we should never write to the biblatex language field. Do you think I should do that? Would people expect anything else?I tend to think that content from the Zotero/CSL "language" field should never be mapped to the biblatex "language" fie…
-
I see - but don't you think precisely this use case strongly calls for the introduction of one additional value - "month-day" - to the date-parts attribute of localized dates then?
-
Another update, can't really tell why, but now it works as expected. Thank you for your assistance. The only thing I'm still not too happy about is the biblatex "language" field. Both standard biblatex and biblatex-chicago print the content of th…
-
I see. Apparently my translator did not auto-update *and* I was bitten by the fact that "lastUpdated": "2013-07-01 14:13" in BibLaTeX.js was not updated between versions. What I now get upon export is hyphenation = {en}. biblatex, however, will no…
-
Thank you, that'd be much appreciated.

When importing from CSL JSON, is there any reason why Zotero does not accept the valid CSL variable "title-short", while it does accept "shortTitle"?
-
Well, a few people using pandoc, including myself, seem to be interested, in particular since the output from pandoc's excellent biblio2yaml can easily be converted to CSL JSON, offering an interesting alternative import path from bib(la)tex. See ht…
-
@fbennett, thank you for the detailed explanation, much appreciated. I will bring this up on xbiblio.
-
Wouldn’t this something you can achieve by entering the localized term into the “status” field? Sure, but I’d have to modify the status variable in my database whenever I want to use a different output language. My point is that manual intervention…
-
Would it make sense to implement the very same solution for other variables and in other citeprocs as well? I just came across a similar problem when trying to figure out how to localize the content of the status variable. Here, too, being able to…
