Sorry for the slow response – I think this would be safe, if that's what you're doing for APA and users haven't given you grief over it. I wrote MHRA last year to ask if they would consider changing this policy.
-
Is this simply the problem listed at https://www.zotero.org/support/known_translator_issues ? I find that the JSTOR translator only works for me if I'm not accessing through the EZproxy server *and* I change the protocol to https. It's been like th…

Within certain fields (anything that mixes languages within one publication), the nocase option makes things much easier. I wasn't aware that it wasn't yet official; that would explain its absence in the documentation.
-
Along with Chicago, MHRA (3rd ed. p. 80) also calls for it.
-
Parenthetical references cannot, indeed, be automated at the moment, but in practice I find that this isn't much of an issue. I use MHRA frequently; I would say that the implementation is quite good at this point, but like everything else, you need …

A few years later, is there any chance of implementing this? Working from the handling of things like 'Jr', I wonder whether the user could simply indicate an attribution by putting both first and last names in brackets within Zotero, with citeproc …
-
Just out of curiosity, has a formal feature request for this been filed? This is also an issue for anonymous works in Chicago (see ¶ 14.79), which asks a bibliography to be sorted like this: Stanze in lode della donna brutta. Florence, 1547. A Tru…

Very good to hear; I've been editing the Citeproc JSON by hand before sending it on to Pandoc, editing everything other than journal articles to record the DOI properly. I've been sticking the DOI in as a URL; perhaps this isn't quite as good an ap…
-
I second this. I believe implementing this would require some additions to the fields; do we know whether this situation will be covered in the forthcoming update?
-
I did add support for reviews several months ago to some of the other Chicago files, though I can't remember which ones; I might sit down at some point and verify that everything has been synchronized. I really am mystified by the issue you note of…

Thanks, @S.Baack, for your comments; I was able to modify your citation key format to match zotxt exactly: [auth:lower:select,-1,1]:[year:nopunct:select,1,1][Title:lower:nopunct:skipwords:select,1,1]
-
Strange, that; I'm absolutely certain that that I never followed a link to the mobile site, but it isn't recurring after deleting cookies.
-
Ah, aurimas beat me to it. Is there any reason to put it on line 140 rather than at the beginning of the file?
-
You shouldn't have to be tracking down the first names of authors; Chicago ¶14.72 states: Authors’ names are normally given as they appear on the title pages of their books. Certain adjustments, however, may be made to assist correct identification …
-
I think this is the default behaviour of the repository system they're using. Cf. https://tspace.library.utoronto.ca
-
Just out of curiosity, are these changes potentially getting closer, with the new API syncing that came out at the beginning of the month? (The development roadmap page is currently outdated.) The need for some of these is beginning to get desperate…
-
The problem is that Chicago explicitly allows the inclusion of issue information (¶14.180): The issue number may be omitted if pagination is continuous throughout a volume or when a month or season precedes the year. Nonetheless, it is never wrong t…
-
Sorry, yes, I was thinking collection-title. Shouldn't be looking at these things late at night. I had noticed that about the rendering of journal articles awhile back: the issue is that the guide specifies this information shouldn't be included if…
-
Not at all, in fact. This is a very standard method for citing premodern manuscripts.
-
On the last one, I would only point out that container-title needs to be sentence case for journals, so you don't get '5th Ser.' The workaround (as used in Chicago) is quite simple.
-
That's odd. Are you running the current version of OS X? Not sure if that would make a difference. Note also that you need to have Zotero open in order for zotxt to be able to import the references from it.
-
You simply install the zotxt add-on from the Mozilla website into Zotero and paste 'sudo pip install pandoc-zotxt' into the command line. That's it; there's nothing to configure (except that you need to add the extra '-F pandoc-zotxt' bit when proce…
-
I use Erik Hetzner's zotxt: it adds an 'Easy Citekey' translator to Zotero that will output a citation key in the format of @doe:2014title (you can change the key to something else by adding a note or tag to the item starting with @). You then simpl…

Honestly, the terminal isn't as scary as you might think, and you certainly don't need to be a programmer (see this tutorial and this for basic information). It allows you to accomplish a number of things much more efficiently, and opens up an entir…

I looked into using the program in the winter, but found it was both more and less than I need. I've ended up writing everything using TextMate in Pandoc's Markdown. (Pandoc, by the way, is written by a philosophy professor, and has a particularly n…
-
Exactly, yes.
-
No, I'm using Zotero Standalone. I'd like Zotero to use "http://dx.doi.org.myaccess.library.utoronto.ca/" rather than "http://dx.doi.org/" when clicking on a link to a DOI within a citation. Not, obviously, much more than a nicety.
-
That brings it into line with author-date at the very least. Thanks!
-
I wrote them almost immediately, but they never responded. To review the evidence, the manual states, 'When an edition other than the first is used or cited, the number or description of the edition follows the title in the listing.' I'm guessing t…
-
This is all very interesting. The core issue here is simply that we're currently going to the trouble of maintaining nice, structured information for our citations, but it simply ends up in lightly formatted text, because there really aren't any goo…
