Sigh. OK, first big problem is that your file is not valid; there are dozens of errors. Fix those problems and you might find it magically works as you expect.
-
Search the forums please; this has come up many times. But short answer is there's no good answer; I think if you put underscores before after the title, though, you might find it renders in your document.
-
Would help to see the whole file. Can you post it somewhere?
-
+1 on Dataset. -1 on Syllabus (just use Document)

OTOH, Drupal 7 is going to incorporate RDF support, and I think that it will include RDFa (which Zotero should both produce and consume).
-
As I said, "Or, alternately, we'd need some rule that says order per se is unimportant with the cs:names element.." That's what you're suggesting. But I also suggested that the change might cause other problems. I'll raise the issue with the xbib …

Also, now that CSL is implemented in a number of different projects, with over a thousand styles, backward-incompatible changes are painful. Just to be clear: I don't dispute the use cases. Am just leery of these kinds of particular implementation …
-
@bdarcus: I'm not sure I totally understand your concern. Of course sorting and display rules are important when dealing with names, but I don't think this should prevent the implementation of specific requirements from publishers. My concern is tha…
-
You two are forgetting one big issue: more than half of the world does not have the same sorting and display rules as the U.S., Western Europe, etc. Consider a name like "Mao Zedong," which even in English should be sorted exactly as it's displayed …
-
Try a different style.
-
This is what the 'container-author' variable in CSL is intended to address. It's already added to CSL. There just needs to be a way to store the data in Zotero.
-
@CB: I use delicious (and magnolia before the meltdown) for miscellaneous stuff not related to research.
-
Answer: no. And while I don't speak for Zotero, I'd find it hard to believe they'd support this given that these are internal database numbers specific to a particular database. E.g. if you import the exact same reference from two different RefMan…
-
I'm not exactly sure what you're doing, but you should only enter or edit locators (page numbers for citations and such) from within the citation insertion and editing UI. You should never edit the content of the citation field (or any field, for th…

OIC! Yes, I'd call that a bug.
-
I'd say the details of the URI would probably need to be figured out.
-
It's possible in 1.5. Click the "HTML" button and add the link manually; e.g.: clickable text At some point soon, though, the Zotero team should probably add the link icon to the toolbar so that this is easier.
-
I'm the author of CSL. This is tricky, but I think it probably makes sense to add a new option to names; maybe something like "family-name-format" with option of "capitalize" as a first step. So there's no solution now, but hopefully there will be …
-
"My Library" should not be a collection but should only display what is in all the collections. Hmm ... I believe that's what it is now! Click on a collection, save some article metadata from the location bar. That item will appear both in that col…
-
In my opinion, multiple libraries (e.g. databases) makes no sense at all. If you want to segment out different kinds of stuff, that's what collections are for.
-
identi.ca allows you to add tags to your profile, which automatically assign you to the related groups. See my profile page there for a simple example. BTW, identi.ca is a good model to examine all around; good support for Atom and FOAF, distribute…
-
Tough tradeoff: a bigg-ish hit at the beginning for quick subsequent response, or a small (but still obvious) lag every time you need to resort, or change pages?
-
Given the new website and exposure of citation metadata over HTML, might it be a time to consider adding RDFa to the templates? If needed, I can help. Could also be a good use case to sway the group developing HTML 5 to add RDFa.
-
Feeds are planned. As for twitter, I've thought of that as well, though would much prefer a more open solution. But I wrote that more with the perspective that I get nervous about relying on centralized services. It seems more sensible to look at so…
-
OK, fair enough :-)
-
At least in my hands the openoffice plugin is barely usable, and has some serious bugs. For me and i guess for many other users this is a barrier to adopting zotero. That's such a vague and sweeping statement that it borders on FUD. How "barely us…
-
Well the problem here is that you are embedding data within other data. Your data is not normalized. I would recommend simply defining a new type of data item, called a quote, and telling users to create a new "Quote Item" for each new quote. those …
-
Perhaps it's because it's been discussed in other threads extensively? It's likely to show up in CSL soon-ish, but I can't predict if or when Zotero will implement it.
-
It does seem that if one is going to create software that generates bibliographic citations and stores bibliographic quotes then it makes sense to also store the page number of that quote. It is required information after all. Yes, but it's not clea…
-
Oops; I left out a word or two; it should say "though there IS NO formal page number support ..." You can imagine that in theory one could select a quote and add a page number to it. But while that's been talked about, it's not implemented yet. A…
