Thanks for the clarification, that's very helpful.

If I understand you correctly, the CMOS rules for bibliographies under the full note system and the shortened note system differ? I don't see an explicit discussion of that, but maybe it's hinted at in 13.21, or I'm just overlooking something. Or I …
-
I think that will do the trick.
-
Oh ugh. I guess I hadn't read 14.166 carefully. What counts as a detail? If there's only a note, no bibliographic entry, maybe one should just type the note (if only using CMOS). I don't have MLA 9th ed, only the 8th, but it's more sensible (IMO) by…
-
Definitely getting there! A few questions. I notice that the 14.166 example includes composer ("music by") and choreographer, not currently shown in your citation--the tags do exist? Also the note and bibliography output doesn't yet include everyth…
-
Thanks, that works. I thought I had tried that, but apparently not, or I did something incorrectly. (I'm also keeping the description "Performance" in the Presentation item type fields to distinguish the performance from references to the script.)
-
Another vote for a Performance item type. Meanwhile, when using the Presentation item type, which seems to be the closest available, is there a way to have the title treated as a major work (italicized, no quotation marks)? I can add italicization m…
-
That's a fair point. Although it does undercut the usefulness of the Extra field. Another way to look at a reference in a book about a film composer is that it's closer to a citation to a recording or performance, but in any case I'll have to live w…
-
I think then the question is whether "Vertigo" is an unusual type. It's unusual in comparison with books and articles, but among videorecordings, I'd say it isn't: director virtually always counts more than composer. The situation with a book about …

Listing Glass and Childs as "contributors" results in: Wilson, Robert, dir. Einstein on the Beach: An Opera in Four Acts. Produced by Pomegranate Arts and Théâtre du Châtelet, Paris. With Philip Glass and Lucinda Childs. Opus Arte, 2016. Blu-Ray an…

Ugh, so that's what's going on. At least there are the options of Worldcat.org and the New York Public Library.
-
Many thanks, I never would have thought of this!
-
I updated the graphics driver, but no luck. It got me thinking about a startup program affecting graphics display, but no joy disabling that either. However, I poked around a little more and discovered that for some reason, Windows set Zotero to use…
-
Since this issue appears to be unique to my computer, my guess is that I'll simply have to live with it -- the devs have bigger things to work on. If they're really curious, I might be willing to go through and disable/reenable startup items to find…
-
OK, I've tested a whole bunch of possibilities, culminating with booting in Safe Mode (usage < 1%), so it now looks like Zotero is conflicting with something that loads on startup -- though why that would occur when I open Zotero normally but not…
-
OK, new weirdness: the Routledge style doesn't appear in my styles list, as seen within Zotero. Yet it's in the Zotero's Styles folder. I don't recall ever trying to tweak a style since I don't know the first thing about CSL, so presumably I downloa…
-
Correct on all that. As you suggested, I installed the beta, with basically the same results (~23%, within the variance before). Here's the debug log (recorded on the beta): Debug ID D486967919 [JavaScript Error: "uncaught exception: undefined"] …
-
Thanks for explaining why the Extra field didn't work. We'll have to put up with the "ahead of print" problem, of course, but if anyone else looks for the solution, at least they'll find this thread. (As for silly information, fortunately style gui…
-
That approach would be consistent with the approach used for other types of preprint -- but as I said, it doesn't work. At least not with CMS author-date, maybe it hasn't been implemented. You can test it, maybe there's something else going on in my…
-
I discovered that I could achieve this entering "ahead of print, 2024" in the Pages field. Not really optimal, in my view, but it works.
-
No need, if the publisher wants me to use the 16th edition they'll let me know.
-
That explains it -- I have the 16th edition. Thanks for the suggestion on the best item type.
-
OK, I changed the date field from "2023" to "Winter 2023" (the edition date) and now the output has the year alone after the name, and "Winter 2023" after the encyclopedia title. The odd thing is that I don't see such a requirement in the CMS itself…
-
For the particular article I'm currently writing, I'm using an author-date style, but usually I use CMS short title. But I'd want the citation to look the same no matter what the base style is: "CP 1.234," with no author, comma, or year. Using the …
-
Yes, it's not something I'll hold my breath for, but I figured it can't hurt to put it in whatever feature request list might exist. Who knows, maybe someday. In the meantime, re-editing a citation is a better approach for me than using the suffix o…
-
The suffix and prefix fields still force a period at the end of a citation. Here's an example of an ordinary citation using a prefix before the second citation: Ryan, “Introduction,” 45; see also Aarseth, “Allegories of Space,” 92. If I place thi…
-
I see it now. OK, thanks.
-
Hi, here's the link to a file in my Dropbox. However, you probably don't need to look at it. In leafing through how the web library reflects the library on my computer, I think I now understand what you were telling me before, and why I was confused…
-
Ah-ha! Thanks, that works. I've wondered what that field was for; I just thought it was handy for brief notes, which I've occasionally used it for.
-
Actually, at least for me Zotero does not resync it, and reloading the page does not restore the icon either -- I checked this before posting, and again now. Obviously I can't open a document unless it's on a Zotero or some other cloud location, but…
