  • @damnation thank you! That's close. The following citation generated by that stylesheet is correct: Bachmann, Ingo. 2010. Sit-Ving vs. sit-and-V: Determinants of variation in the verbal complement of sit. Presented at the ICAME 31, University of G…
  • My ability to correctly edit a .cls file is limited at best. I can guess a bit, but it should be proofread before my changes are accepted anyway, so it would just be easier for someone who really knows what they're doing to make these changes. For t…
  • Thank you both! @mark, the closest we have to guidelines for this sort of thing is to use the 2007 outline "as a default, but with discretion to use common sense" (as quoted from David Denison in the style sheet). Most of the phrasing there is for …
  • Do you have a reference for that? It seems odd to me to not give credit where it is due, but at the same time it's sort of an odd choice for the author to give them credit in that quirky way, so maybe that's the answer-- just leave it there, on the …
  • Current status, partial fix: I changed one line: text term="presented at" prefix="" suffix=" " text-case="capitalize-first"/ Originally: text term="presented at" prefix="Paper " suffix=" "/ [Code angle brackets removed to allow it to …
  • I've been playing with this a bit more, and regarding the "Presentation" type, it seems odd to me that it insists on inserting "Paper" before "presented at", given that there is also a "Type" field and we might want to write "Poster", or just leave …
  • Yes, this comes up (rarely) for me too. It's useful to be able to cite special issues, and it doesn't feel quite right to pretend it's a book or an article. However, as a workaround, and since this comes up so rarely, pretending it's an article act…
  • I'd like to second this request/question. I have several academic works where there is a second contributor/author listed as "with" on the front cover or title page, but not as the author of the book. (Often for example this may be a language consul…
  • 1. Great, thanks! (Tested and confirmed that this works.) 2. I don't know that there are guidelines for unpublished works in this somewhat ad-hoc standard. But when in doubt, copying other widely used formats (e.g., "Presented at Conference Name, L…
  • So then this style is "right", and the others that do include Conference Name are "wrong"? I'd much rather see this be hyper-correct (that is, technically wrong, but with additional functionality) than see it removed from the others or not added to …
  • Why would "Conference Paper" exist if it is the same as a book chapter then? It includes the "Conference Name" as distinct from "Proceedings Title". (Confusingly it does also have publisher and pages numbers, so you could use it for published procee…
  • Ah, that makes sense! But I assume there's no way to automatically do that for all fields in the document, right?
  • Just posting to support everyone above who has said this is a major weakness with Zotero, and one that comes up every paragraph or so when writing! Personally I just edit the in-text citation manually within Word (e.g., manually moving the citation…
  • This is a good question. The "yes/no" options are not very helpful here. If yes, then I'd like the citations to be highlighted so I can go back and fix them manually. If no, I'd like to be able to turn it "back on" as you ask here. Whenever this hap…
  • This style is helpful, and I'm using it for my research. There are (at least) two bugs I'd like to fix, although I'm quite lost trying to edit the style myself. The first is the bug above about the extra space when there are multiple volumes. So I c…
  • A confirmation dialog would be perfect. (Or a user-selected option to disable it, not that it needs to be fully removed from the program. I was surprised not to see this in the "shortcuts" pane of the preferences as something I could just turn …
  • Alright. Thanks for thinking about it. You said this isn't a common request-- why not? How do others deal with the situation where we might have a folder containing multiple files? Do others just not organize as many files as I do, instead pref…
  • That could sort of work, but then I would need to somehow guess which references are folders and which are files, so that I would know when to double-click and when to right-click>'Show File'. Is there a reason this would be especially hard …
  • Hi Dan, Thanks. Unfortunately, that doesn't work for me. There's a reason I have a folder-- it's a place to put any and all relevant files, not just because I have a set list of files to associate. Example Reasons: 1. I sometimes ha…
