I'm getting frustrated by the increasing tendency of people to ask for help on styles without providing even the basic information we ask for in the link that adamsmith provides (and putting it in the wrong forum no less). This takes times and effor…

Probably. It is the same code base after all, and I expect maintaining compatibility over time for extensions will be a high priority. There's a related thread, though it doesn't say much.
-
I get annoyed by the binary perspective of some of these arguments: web-oriented devs who don't get the needs of productivity documents, and the traditional desktop devs who don't get the web. But I absolutely loathe being on a committee where peopl…

First I'd heard of it, but it should be a good thing. There were already strains between OOo and Sun, and Oracle really couldn't seem to care less about free software. Something for the Zotero developers to definitely keep up on to make sure the plu…

FWIW, you *can* create or edit styles in Zotero... though it does take a bit of work... For most users though, changing styles is not practical. So yes, you can edit styles; but not from within the Zotero GUI.

If you don't have access to Word, you might give OpenOffice.org a try.
-
No reason to start a new thread for this; just bump the original one.

I'm pretty allergic to Apple these days. But I am an Android user, and would love to see better cross-platform mobile support. Today's announcement mentions mobile briefly, but there are no details. Certainly opening up the write API (finally!) woul…

That's fine. We're talking about the inline stuff over on the xbib-dev list, so we can add it once that's resolved, essentially copying-and-pasting the definition from the csl-data,rnc schema. But yeah, it might be good to float on zotero-dev.
-
I believe the API is there (isn't it what zotero.org runs against?); just need to get it opened up and documentation finalized. This really needs to be a very high priority, in my view.
-
Nice job! Dan might want to comment on whether it's a good idea to model the types as elements. An alternate approach would be something like: artwork = element item { attribute type { "artwork" }, ... } Note: am not advocating this ATM; it…
-
Have you created a schema for the XML? If not, please do so. If you need help, let me know. Relax NG Compact preferred. On the details, I suggest sticking more closely to the Zotero model; e.g.: start = library | records records = element records {…
-
And in Endnote you can create or edit styles. Not at all endorsing using it, though ;-)
-
The two namespace declarations shouldn't make any difference in any case, at least from the standpoint of the XML spec.
-
Well, the bigger question is if this is a bug that needs to be fixed.
-
OK, I made a couple of changes that should address the newspaper issue. Am not sure, though, about where the section info and such would go if this was an online item.
-
OK, that clarifies. Will see what I can do. Note: you don't want to be doing weird, non-standard, things like putting the department name in the "place" field. I'm not going to code the style like that. Couldn't you just add "Department of Politics…
-
CSL already supports original publication info (not only dates; publisher info too). It just needs to be added to Zotero. Given we've been talking about this for years, we really ought to deal with it.
-
On newspapers, I don't see how it's possible (looking at the style) that it's "not formatted." indeed, that's not what I'm seeing. Example: Brown, E. and Hohmann, J. (2009, September 12). 'Anti-Government Demonstration Draws Tens of Thousands to D.…

I don't have time ATM to fix all these problems, but I did fix the first one. http://gist.github.com/561755

The permission infrastructure isn't flexible? Nevermind, sounds like it is, and you're just referring to the current UI.
-
@zeynep: current status is it's unresolved, but certainly on the radar (e.g. it's a known issue that needs to be resolved; it's just that there are differences about how to best do this, balancing a range of different practical issues).
-
It's tedious, but it's also the kind of thing you could probably do at the end of the day, over a couple of nights. Shouldn't be too bad. FWIW, I used Endnote for my dissertation, and when then subsequently working on my first book based on it, dit…

You don't need a line-feed. Use the "block" rendering feature.
-
I just feel the need to again bring up the point that free form dates only really work for some type of citation styles (like note-based); they otherwise break basic functionality like sorting that are critical for other styles.
-
Word is fine, but DO NOT use the master document feature, which has always been, and will always be, buggy. OOo is also fine. Both of these work nicely with Zotero. InDesign is not at all appropriate for writing long documents; it is really for…
-
Do a search on the forum for "dates." Date ranges aren't supported ATM.
-
So you used "Book" because "Newspaper Article" didn't have a publisher field?
-
For parenthetical in text citations with three, four, or five authors, the first citation should include all author names ... What if there are two authors? In any case, if this is in fact a bug in the style, it ought to be easy enough to fix. We j…
