Just jumping in here to say that the last two options you raised (importing endnote reference numbers or matching them, and converting to live citations) would both be amazing options. The latter especially, since I do find that I can write citation…
-
OK I've been working on a solution to this problem. Basically- my library has so many duplicates in it, that getting rid of them by hand is just a no-go. I have over 5,000 duplicates, and merging each one takes ~8 seconds. It would over 2 straight d…
-
Just commenting here to say I was hoping for a similar solution. I have not been very diligent about merging duplicates, and I do very large batch-imports of references. I have nearly 6000 duplicates in my library now. Merging them all by hand is ta…

@darbyjack In the meantime, if you have access to RefWorks, you can import an nbib file into your library, and then export it as something more useful (if you use Zotero for your workflow instead). Login to refworks and choose References -->…
-
@darbyjack Since I've posted this comment, I've found that copy/pasting the XML from PubMed works just as well if not better than having to download nbib files. If you want to get citations from PubMed into Zotero, the best way is to choose the…

that did it, thanks!
-
When I do that, I get the error Citeproc initialisation exception: TypeError: Cannot call method 'call' of undefined I'm sure I've messed up the syntax somehow but I am not familiar with the correct usage. I tried to maintain spacing the same as …

ugh- I wish I used plain AMA all the time. In fact, I use it for about 50% of the things I do, but sometimes specific projects have weird and picky things like "no issue numbers" and so on. I usually start with AMA style in the CSL editor and make c…
-
@ adamsmith could you please provide an example of how to change the delimiter in CSL for page ranges? My copy-editor insists (and I have double checked as well) that AMA style requires hyphens for page ranges and not en-dashes. I tried to use …

cool, thanks. I'll leave this link here too in case anyone is interested http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/excel-help/export-xml-data-HP010206401.aspx I'll play with this and let you know how it goes. Cheers Adam! it's always a pleasure.
-
@ adamsmith >we're overlapping a lot here ;) yes, we are :)
-
@adamsmith >the latter. And I doubt it's going to happen I assumed as much. I agree, XML import is much better. I edited my previous post as well, but is there a way to get excel fields back into zotero? for example, if I pulled the …
-
@adamsmith I think the quickest approach would be something like I mentioned above, where the obvious fields could go into the citations (title, study author, etc) but then there would have to be some sort of a cheat-sheet to know what the rest…
-
@asinclair Yes! very much. I would love to get something like this working. I spent a very small amount of time on this late last year, but I stopped because (apart from not being able to devote a lot of time to it) I found that the Zotero fiel…
-
Thanks- I did notice that the copy/paste XML was a little faster. I'll give the send to XML a shot- could be a real time-saver!
-
just posting to say that this issue was resolved. It seems that each time I would fix an error, and then initiate a sync, a new error would be uncovered. after several rounds of this (and deleting my trash from the web app prior to initiating sync i…
-
Thanks, I have tried emptying the trash and re-syncing, but it looks like Zotero is pulling in files from the web manager to replace the missing ones. I deleted them here, and then tried to empty the trahs and re-sync in standalone but got an error …
-
Well since I figured out my issue, I'll post it here in case anyone else has a similar problem: I had zotero standalone installed on a laptop. and the hard drive failed. I was signed in and synced frequently, so I didn't think getting my library ba…

could you link to the article for posterity please? I am having a similar problem

added pull request here https://github.com/zotero/translators/pull/601

The translator works OK: I used it to complete the project I was working on at the time, and I haven't had an opportunity to return to it recently. I didn't post it to Github because I noticed a few things wrong with it. When searching abstracts ove…
-
@aurimas Thanks. I originally put the gm flags in there because I was sort of trying a shotgun approach. I thought perhaps the reason I was unable to remove any characters at first was because the match was stopping at the first ";"- so I put in t…
-
.remove(/\;.*/gm ) seems to work
-
I'll also add that I've tried matching anyting before the first ";" instead WITH .match( /\;$/) to no avail.

hey guys, things are going really well and I'm just trying to tweak the way Zotero imports the author list. I was hoping I could have some help putting together the appropriate function. Right now I have my scraper set up like this: creat…
-
@aurimas This is a huge step forward. I now have a working translator that just needs a little tweaking. Thanks everyone for your support. I will post again when I have it up and running completely. @adamsmith would the Zotero project be int…

After a few days of working on this in my free time, I feel I've hit a wall. I can use doc.evaluate to return single items correctly. I have tested multiple XPaths for all of the citation info I need, so that if I comment out existing variables I ca…

whoops- nevermind. I failed to remove the .iterateNext() from the end of the Authors variable. I fixed that and now it seems OK. moving on...

Ok- So I am working my way through the HWZT guide with some success. I've been trying out my translator on one of the ASCO abstracts' website and I was pretty satisfied when I was able to scrape the title successfully. Then I tried to iterate to scr…
