  • It works in Scaffold because Scaffold does not do sanity checking for any of the fields. The error I get on the page linked above is Invalid item type articleJournal which corresponds to the incorrect item type supplied to Zotero.Item on line 102 i…
    in Translator issue with British Library Catalog Comment by aurimas June 28, 2012
  • I think adamsmith and I are looking at a different page than you are. We are working with pages that look like http://psycnet.apa.org/journals/xge/50/5/325/ where the PDF links should be on the right side in the "Links" panel. Could you post the HTM…
    in PDFs do not import Comment by aurimas June 28, 2012
  • Rintze said: I changed the language of the upcoming version of the CSL specification a bit. Any comments? https://github.com/citation-style-language/documentation/commit/c34700363a0a05507e191654253151605f31838b A little more insight on this. A lot …

    in possible conflicts in data entry? unusual symbol Comment by aurimas June 27, 2012
  • I see. That behavior makes sense. I guess I rushed a little with my assessment of #2.
    in Quotes within titles Comment by aurimas June 26, 2012
  • Thanks for the clarification. I wouldn't trust the bibliography of the linked article though since some authors in there appear in all-caps, but I do trust your opinion on this. Off topic: You have the most confusing username. Your name on github a…
    in Should titles that are published in all-caps be transformed to title case for citations? Comment by aurimas June 26, 2012
  • In a slightly related note: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC283235/ Does the * belong to the title?
    in Should titles that are published in all-caps be transformed to title case for citations? Comment by aurimas June 25, 2012
  • It seems that you were not using separate profiles (by starting firefox or zotero standalone with the -p flag) but were simply changing the sync username and password. If that is the case, then be very careful how you untangle this mess. If you log…
    in Multiple Accounts Mixing Comment by aurimas June 19, 2012
  • We can probably come up with a way to detect google lockouts. I'm not sure how to get that information from the translator to recognizePDF. If we do detect it, we can probably notify the user and wait for a set amount of time before continuing. Slo…
    in automating mass-import from PDFs Comment by aurimas June 17, 2012
  • I have noticed the same slow (or no) responses as well. I think the biggest reason that there is much less activity in this area is because the community cannot chip in to help fix the bugs. AFAIK there's only one person responsible for the website,…
    in Meta observation: lower response rate to web- and group-related suggestions Comment by aurimas June 17, 2012
  • I mailed this to zotero-dev group before: http://labs.crossref.org/styled-6/pdf_extract.html. We can use similar logic for abstract. For instance: first paragraph with more than 3 lines of text and the same font size as the main text (in case there …

    in automating mass-import from PDFs Comment by aurimas June 16, 2012
  • Personally I hate endnote's integrated search. It always retrieved a lot of articles that I didn't want. I would probably still prefer using the publisher websites for retrieving articles, but if people want to use search from Zotero, I think we can…

  • If you don't mind doing a little bit more troubleshooting, could you tell us the search query and specific items that you are trying to import and that are producing the blank notification box? Also, could you produce a debug ID for the actions sta…
    in Factiva error Comment by aurimas June 16, 2012
  • http://www.zotero.org/support/creating_bibliographies make sure your quick copy preferences are configured correctly. If that doesn't help, tell us what the preferences are set to and we'll see if it's a bug and how to fix it.

    in Way to visualize categories an article is in? Comment by aurimas June 15, 2012
  • I can't reproduce the error you're getting, but it's most likely because the way the proxy at my university works with Factiva is a little weird. Anyway, looking through the translator, I think I may have identified a potential problem that would m…
    in Factiva error Comment by aurimas June 14, 2012
  • Try using the firefox plugin with standalone closed (if you haven't yet) and see if that helps at all. I doubt that it will though. Proxies like that are difficult for Zotero to deal with. I believe there will be better support for proxies in Zotero…

  • Thanks for marking your changes. That makes it a lot easier.
    in RIS Export Comment by aurimas June 13, 2012
  • If you followed the instructions on the page I linked closely, your translators should be up to date (step 5). Zotero updates translators from the page that you found, so no, that would not help (any more than following step 5). As far as the DOI t…

  • You can post your version of the translator on https://gist.github.com/ http://pastebin.com/ or some other public location. The RIS modifications got placed on the back burner for a while, but now that you reminded me, I'll try to finish it up this …

    in Zotero not reading the database file Comment by aurimas June 12, 2012
  • 948kb is somewhere in the vicinity of an empty database, so those are not the .sqlite files from your old database. If you updated Firefox via Firefox's update feature, rather than uninstalling and reinstalling firefox, your old firefox profile shou…
    in Zotero not reading the database file Comment by aurimas June 12, 2012
  • Though since it's very reproducible on your system, maybe we can reproduce it as well. What WebDAV server are you using?
    in upload fails/gets stuck Comment by aurimas June 12, 2012
  • If you just care about importing data for yourself, then you can import the MARC data that they send you into Zotero using Zotero's MARC translator (though MARC is not explicitly listed, the proceedure should be the same as http://www.zotero.org/sup…

    in sharing reports over email accessing/printing them from other computers Comment by aurimas June 12, 2012
  • I did something similar for springer link and sudoc translators by essentially building a list of fields in all available languages. It's quite messy. Perhaps it's better to stick to RIS export (maybe only when we detect non-english interface). I …
