Done.

@MTBradley: Yes, but in my experience, they are not in the least bit reliable, particularly WRT to citations and bibliographies. It's really not worth the hassle in my view.
-
OK, try again.
-
It would indeed be nice to generalize the scraping infrastructure (as well as to make it MUCH easier to write scrapers; why do I even need to write JS code at all??).
-
A good general rule of thumb IMHO is that you should only consider LaTeX if either a) you don't need to ever distribute your source documents (PDF is fine) or b) places that you might need to submit such source documents to accept LaTeX (which is ty…

OK, I'm busy, so didn't have time to test it, but the updated style is now committed. Can you reload the style and test it and report back?
-
Right now, this style is a dependent style that simply links to vancouver. So to fix these little problems means creating a new style that gets maintained separately. The style includes no links to any documentation. Can you find such a link and p…

Or, it might be valuable for Symphony users to research what's involved in writing plug-ins. Given that the suite is based on OOo, I can imagine it might be feasible to run OOo plug-ins as well.
-
Or, following on arggem's idea, just use a "number" style while you're writing, and then switch to the style you need when you're done.
-
And validate your styles before posting problems please! You can't be casual about XML.

I am in the Humanities (Archaeology) and LaTeX is surely going to isolate me more or less. All editors in the Journals I know of request the delivered papers to be in .DOC (not even .ODT) format! My fear is, that I am going to invest (probably a lot…

I don't speak for Zotero, but I'd guess you won't see this soon.
-
As I said on another thread, then write Apple. They were the ones that (stupidly) chose to limit the citation and bibliography support to Endnote, so they're the ones that need to fix that. Note, though: I don't speak for Zotero, and so don't know …
-
Yes, write to Apple. The more people the better (since they tend not to listen otherwise!). Ask them to open up the citation and bibliography capabilities to other applications, including Zotero.
-
I don't think that's the best approach, since it forces users to change the titles of collections, based on the particular document in question. Perhaps a better way is just to have a little UI that allows users to set the following for each bibli…
-
There is only one single bibliography at the end of the document, but divided according to the collections and subcollections in Zotero and alphabetically sorted in each section. That's an interesting idea, but how do you specify the order of the su…
-
@orpheus49: I'm afraid it's a little more complicated. First, primary and secondary are not the only ways that bibliographies get chopped up based on the characteristics of the sources. I've seen sections for legal cases, for example, or newspaper…

As I said, spend some time googling on generic RDF/XML information. There are many ways to represent that information in RDF/XML. ... or .. 2009-01-13 15:47:44 ... or ... 2009-01-13 15:47:44 ... all mean the same thing. It matters that…
-
You should first read a little about RDF/XML before getting too far into this. For example, you need to understand that there are two ways to type resources in RDF/XML.

Re: math and such in TinyMCE (which is what Zotero is using for notes in 1.5), I came across this example.
-
It's not clear that separate quotes records make sense given that 1.5 already includes rich notes support that includes quotes, and that the Zotero team has expressed openness to building features on top of that (like appending page numbers to the q…
-
Agreed, though it's possible that would be overly limiting. RFC 4646, which Dublin Core recommends for the the Language field, allows for more detail than a fixed list would allow. Yes, that's what I mean; just didn't have the details handy at the t…
-
Which would you like to see in your bibliography? I would think in most cases you would want "french" instead of "fr". That doesn't work if you're dealing with multiple languages. I would have thought a fixed list of language options tied to the lan…
-
As you can see, we use French quotes («») and not English quotes (" "), and I never was able to create a style using those with CSL. I've noticed that most of the styles are in English, you should create more for non-english scholars (just a suggest…
-
Try Dan's suggestion in this thread.
-
Try BioMed; my sense is they're pretty responsive (I have no experience with this since I'm no bologist, but do know one of the people there).
-
You can already achieve the same effect using tags and smart collections. Create tags for "read" and "unread" and create smart collections for each.
-
Couldn't that MathML's purpose a bit? I'm referring to completely non-math uses now, to play devil's advocate. Say, I want to set a single letter or word in italic or bold. I admit MathML would work, but it's not quite the right tool for the job. We…

I believe the feature that would solve all the problems -- for LaTeX users in the physical sciences -- looks kind of like this - but this is just a rough draft of the idea: A visible-only-when-desired "Title" field, perhaps called "LaTeX Title," tha…
