Thank you very much, Emilianoeheyns. I'm sure she'd know more about the details. As I recall Xulrunner was removed due to a discontinuation of upstream support; I've seen other packages that depended on it break. Debian has had to go to more frequ…

I may well be confused, and I'm afraid my tone came off as harsher than I intended; my apologies. I certainly didn't mean to imply that Zotero is closed-source or obfuscated, or that it is somehow wrong to distribute a tarball. I don't think that …

I wrote most of the above two posts months ago, so an update. In practice, although I installed Zotero 5 from Zotero.org without difficulties, I have not actually added new references to it. I've been using it to access and export my old data. I'm n…

Installing Zotero 5 WARNING: Updating to Zotero 5 makes some workarounds impossible, as when you first run it it will, without asking, upgrade your database, and there is reportedly no way to downgrade it so it will work with 4.0 again. https://bug…

OK, I've finally gotten to this. Apparently I was wrong and I did install the Debian zotero-standalone package. Sorry, this was a while ago now; I should have checked. So apparently the Debian package is now effectively blocked, and this has been a…

Thank you to everyone who worked on this feature. It works well and saves a lot of time and frustration.

One standards-based solution is Scholarly HTML: https://w3c.github.io/scholarly-html/ Some websites, such as PMC, already have scrapeable fulltexts. Zotero may have to take a site-by-site approach on scrapers for fulltexts, too. Plan S also has ma…

If you have published sources for the information you want to add (even just a uni website), they'll show you how to add it and possibly help you add it. Be aware that any information added to Wikidata is CC-0, essentially public domain, not copylef…

Wikidata. It's a Wikipedia sister project, funded by the same foundation, and likewise free and editable by anyone. https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Main_Page I'd suggest contacting relevant WikiProjects for help, namely https://www.wikidata…

To belatedly answer Aurimas' question of July 27, 2014 (sorry, Aurimas), the Wikidata database does indeed distinguish two "Smith, J."s on the same paper. Each author is a database item, which contains all available public information about J. Smit…

OK. How should I best preserve my data while doing this? Sorry if this is a stupid question.
-
I'm pretty sure I got the official one from your website. My question is how to get my Zotero working again, ideally without re-installing and restoring from my last flat-file backup. I'd also be interested in knowing how to avoid this in future. Fi…

I'm pretty sure I downloaded it from your site. Is there an easy way of telling whether Zotero has updated or failed to update, given that I can't get a version number or other info out of the GUI? I seem to have data directories in both the mozil…

Sorry, I wasn't clear. If a browser is configured to not run certain scripts, using NoScript or some such, it still downloads the scripts. This seems like a bit of a waste of bandwidth. Since many pages use third-party scripts, it also means that, f…
-
As I recall installing via the package manager was not possible, and I used a tarball. Unfortunately, this also means that Zotero compatibility is not maintained by Debian.
-
It seems that while Noscript stops the scripts from running, it does not stop the scripts from loading. Perhaps a privacy consideration for the browser. Workaround of sorts; if I have no network connection it doesn't have network traffic. Apparently…
-
Unfortunately the "Report errors to Zotero" drop-down menu item doesn't work either...
-
Sorry not to have responded sooner. I can't seem to stop it through any Noscript setting. Does anyone know of a setting for this?
-
Great, and thank you for the quick response. I'd assumed I had the latest version simply because Zotero 5.0 isn't in Debian yet, not even in Sid. I should have checked.
-
I have a similar problem, with image filenames containing diacritics, punctuation, arithmetic symbols, and suchlike. I am using Zotero 4.0.29.6 and Firefox 52.6.0. To replicate: 1. Go to https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Whales_breaching…

Brilliant. Missed that, it's even better than what I asked for. Sorry to trouble you. Thank you!
-
Thank you, that's very helpful; I'll pass it on.

Discussion of Zotero in relation to this on Github: https://github.com/mitar/csl2wikidata/issues/1 I notice there appears to be no metadata on the specific reviews accessible through the DOI lookup (testing using the Cochrane reviews cited…

Did you know about this use of Zotero? https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Citoid The person mostly working on Citoid (Mvolz) is also working on bibliographic data in Wikidata (and is friendly and helpful).

The public-domain one I downloaded manually from a website which I might be able to find it again, but I don't have the URL. Here are the rest: copyright = {Copyright © 1929 Swedish Society for Anthropology and Geography}, url = {http://www.j…

Plain delete for a single item and a confirmation dialogue for multiple items sounds great; thinking it over, multi-item imports sometimes take so long that an undo would not be prefereable to a confirmation box with a cancel button.
-
Manual editing of Wikidata for that article? I don't know of any way of automatically disambiguating authors. I guess you could do a semi-automated search for pages containing both the article metadata (especially DOI) and an ORCID, or a most-probab…

Example scholarly article metadata (work in progress): https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q15625490 We're collecting any metadata on anything with a DOI which seems likely to be useful to Wikipedia or be important to scholarly activity; https://www.…
-
I'm sorry, I don't have an example, but I'll try and remember to post the next one I get. It's only happened to me a few times. I'm not sure I'd want a confirmation dialogue if there was only one thing being imported; lots of dialogues can also…

A well-defined format would be pretty much just as good. I can certainly give you the URLs for any or all of the examples I gave. ©YEAR HOLDER (LICENSE) looks good, although I'm not sure if the © is needed or implied. Would it still be automati…
