FYI, I'm running OS 10.8.5.

Simon's and Aurimas's comments are instructive, suggesting other background knowledge that would be a big help to scholars who are increasingly interested in, or trying to deploy, structured data. The work underway to assign URIs to the physical obj…

Thanks Simon for the good suggestion. I had earlier dismissed the Bibliontology export as unsuitable for my purposes because it failed to export notes (which I prefer to the abstract field, so that my fellow editors, who may not know tags, can provi…

I apologize for my snide comment.In the summer edition of the Guide to Evagrius Ponticus, which I'll release next month, I plan to expose my bibliographic data as (among other formats) Zotero XML-RDF. Here is the test version of what will go live on…

OK, but what about an item whose title consists of text in two different languages? Also, does this mean that the language field describes the title of the book, not its content? This could be confusing to users. For example, many critical edition…

Thanks. (For anyone finding ajlyon's response cryptic and confusing, here's the full explanation.)

I second this oldish but important request. Any possibility it might get implemented? (Before posting I checked other threads in the forums, but I didn't see anything relevant.)

Back to the original topic (2 years later). I noticed that very little has been said in these forums about TEI. Being in the middle of a TEI-customization project, I thought it worthwhile to start a bridge between TEI and Zotero. I encourage Zotero …

Agreed—a plugin would be perfect.

To ajlyon, I agree that the vanilla text field is fine—great, even. You don't want to dictate how a field should be used. But if someone wishes to observe a controlled vocabulary in a collection a tool to do so would be nice. As I understand it, th…

Not being a programmer, I can't comment on the issue of complexity. The question-mark example, however, plays in my favor. Consider sentences such as "I bought stock in Yahoo!" and "Would you try that search in Yahoo!" In both examples two punctua…

That's not an answer. In Multilingual Zotero (MZ), as I understand it, language tags provide metadata for the metadata; they don't describe what languages are used in the work itself. For that we are supposed to use the language field, correct? We…

I enter this conversation as an ally of Felwert. I also call for future versions of Zotero to distinguish titles from subtitles by separating the fields. Contra CM6's claim above, Chicago stipulates that English-language publications need not follo…

Let me revive this thread with a couple of other requests for group communication: Allow posts on the discussion boards to use HTML or Wiki markup. I tried to space and style a longish post to my group, but once I sent it, all paragraph marks had…

FME: First thing to try: Entering your preferred characters the same way you enter them in other programs. Second thing to try: Enter your characters either through the Character Map (Windows) or the Character Viewer (Mac). Both of these a…

The Wikipedia section ajlyon points to is unreliable for the question at hand (and "always-correct" was a joke, right?). One needs to scroll down on the same page to the section Typographic Form and the next several sections, which disambiguate and …

Thanks for the explanation. When I search for "zotz" the first page indicates 23 hits; the second, 14 (and the promised third page disappears). Analogous results can be had with many other keywords.
-
Thanks. I've just introduced that tip in the documentation. Although that settles the kb index issue, what about the search engine? I've just searched for a number of keywords that appear in the article, but it doesn't show up. (And what's up with t…
-
Excellent points, Mark. I've incorporated your ideas into a revision of the documentation page. Feel free to revise it directly.
-
Thanks to the three of you for your input. I have started a new documentation page for this feature: http://www.zotero.org/support/related

Please provide a link. I searched before I posted and I found nothing specifically relevant. The forums are rather unwieldy.

This is to echo the desiderata expressed above for more support in the area of multivolume works, and to provide a knotty, but rather common, example from my field. Every four years the international conference on patristic studies convenes. Like c…

On the documentation: the instructions say that adding large-scale edits to the main document should emerge out of the consensus of the community. It doesn't say say how you build or get community consensus. This forum seemed the most natural way to…
