The FAZ translator saves titles without a “:” separating title and subtitle: E.g., the title of http://www.faz.net/aktuell/politik/harte-bretter/das-meldegesetz-im-bundestag-wer-nicht-anhoeren-will-muss-fuehlen-11817031.html is saved as: “Das Meldeg…

Just pinging. The last two issues I reported do not seem to be fixed yet?
-
Autor-Jahr-Stile (die bedauerlicher- und überflüssigerweise immer wieder als “Harvard” gehandelt werden) benötigen nun mal einen Autor um zu funktionieren (oder hilfsweise einen Titel an Stelle des Autors). Wenn ein Stil bei fehlendem Autor nicht er…
-
@clio_13: Danke. Ich finde es sehr gut, einen Stil zu entwickeln, der auf einer in einem angesehenen Verlag veröffentlichten Anleitung beruht. (Gibt es überhaupt andere deutschsprachige Zitierrichtlinien in Buchform, die einen mit Duden vergleichba…
-
Another issue: The volume field is not rendered at all for book and book section items.
-
Great. I spotted two issues, however: 1. Though there is no example in CTR9 of editor(s) and translator(s) who are the same person(s), the fact that CTR9 has "Introduction and notes by" (p. 24) seems to suggest that "and" is preferred over "&",…
-
You probably tried "_1986-1995"; better try "1986_1995". It seems "2012_2013" is rendered as "2012_2013", but "_2012-2013" is rendered as "2013". Maybe I'm missing something, but I have always wondered about two things: What is the problem with pa…
-
Great, thank you. I just noticed that in a presentation entry there should be a comma rather than a full stop between event and place (see example in CTR9, p. 34):Mendes, L. and Romão, T. (2001) ’Children as teachers’, Proceedings of the 8th interna…
-
And for magazine articles, day and month should be included, just as for newspaper articles. EDIT: Same for blog posts.
-
Great, looking forward. – One more detail: "et al." needs to be italicized (Pears and Shields, 2013, p. 5). Pears, R. and Shields, G. (2013) Cite them right: the essential referencing guide. 9th edn. Basingstoke: Palgrave Macmillan.
-
In book sections with an author and a bookauthor, the latter is not rendered - which is particulary problematic if the two are not identical. Cite Them Right, 9th ed. 2013, does not explicitly cover such cases, but it seems clear that adopting thei…
-
There are also issues with date disambiguation and "no date". - It should be "no date" instead of "n.d." (Cite Them Right, 9th ed. 2013, pp. 6, 15, 32, 41) - When citing several undated items by the same author, no "a, b, c and so on" (p. 32) are …
-
And in presentations, between title and URL etc., the following elements should appear (see Cite Them Right, 9th ed. 2013, p. 33; "Papers from conference proceedings published on the internet" being the closest to Zotero's presentation they have): …
-
One more thing: "Report Type" and "Report Number" are missing from Zotero's output. Examples from Cite Them Right, 9th ed. 2013, p. 35:Harris, G. (2013) Focus group recommendations. Internal LGU report. Unpublished.p. 52:Department of Health (2004)…
-
Thank you! The title of the newspaper should appear in italics, though, both in the in-text citation and the reference list.
-
Yes, the 9th ed., 2013, p. 32, says exactly the same.
-
I keep getting the "Could not save item" message for various documents on http://bookshop.europa.eu, too, e.g., http://bookshop.europa.eu/is-bin/INTERSHOP.enfinity/WFS/EU-Bookshop-Site/en_GB/-/EUR/ViewPublication-Start?PublicationKey=QC3209190, thou…
-
Thank you. Another small issue: When a newspaper article without an author is cited, the Cite Them Right textbook, 3rd ed. 2008, calls for:Where no author is given, use the following citation order: - Title of newspaper (in italics- capitalise first…
-
Small error: Zotero prints "ed.", but http://www.citethemrightonline.com/Basics/elements-that-you-may-need-to-include-in-your-references (paywall) calls for Edition is abbreviated to edn (to avoid confusion with the abbreviation ed. or eds for edit…
-
I do see the points you make in terms of complexity and resources. And, yes, in an ideal world "the actual solution ... is to get those folks to fix their metadata". I don't see that happening anytime soon, however, since even the data model used in…
-
Great. However, upon closer inspection it seems that the data - not only in Edinburgh but in many other Talis reading lists - is usually of rather poor quality. Just check out: - http://resourcelists.ed.ac.uk/items/969ED199-7B62-55ED-3449-E3572…
-
Not quite "non-standard", it seems. The majority of UK universities uses "readinglists" or "resourcelists", and quite a few other terms are used as well. See http://support.talisaspire.com/entries/20060403-Where-can-I-find-a-list-of-existing-custome…
-
Thank you for all the responses. So it's copy & paste for the time being ... FWIW, I have cobbled together an AppleScript (https://gist.github.com/anonymous/f3e32cbc296ecceb643b) that collects scanned ISBNs from EvoBarcode in a text file, s…
-
Right – but assuming you scanned an ISBN with your USB device, what is it you do to get that information into Zotero?
-
Thank you. Not owning an Android or iOS device, it's the laptop solution I'm after, though. So, if anyone is aware of a method (whether AppleScript or other) for Mac OS X of getting the content of the clipboard into the "Add Item(s) by Identifi…
-
On a MacBook, EvoBarcode (http://www.evological.com/evobarcodefaq.html, 15-day free trial) seems to work well capturing barcodes via the on-board camera and returning an ISBN. Since EvoBarcode can run an AppleScript, too, it would seem possibl…
-
Thank you for looking into this. The location-instead-of-author and the extra-date issues indeed seem to have disappeared. Concerning localized dates, I don't know much about CSL, but the specs I found seem to say that CSL can render localized …
-
"German" means "with extensions.zotero.export.bibliographyLocale set to de-DE", and using chicago-author-date. None of the dates I checked are correct, always after the pattern "Mai 6" instead of "6. Mai".
-
Ah yes, here are the permanent links: (1) http://gso.gbv.de/DB=2.1/PPNSET?PPN=768059798 As to "2. überarbeitete Auflage" and such: agreed. This is best left for users to decide how to handle these. I was thinking of Number, [Aufl.|ed.|éd] onl…
-
Thank you. The date import in ISO format seems to work as expected now. The output in German, however, still contains the incorrect "Mai 6" instead of "6. Mai". There are also a few other issues, not sure whether these were introduced by r…
