Just to be clear, the proposed solution suggested by Gracile (adding escaped HTML code to the localized term definitions) is not the way to solve this issue. CSL doesn't support this level of detail, and it's not clear to me it should.
-
That's correct. But it occurs me we probably need a better, more structured, way to handle this. What happens, for example, if you don't otherwise cite the secondary item?
-
Yes, so long as you have a way to disambiguate beyond author and year (say two or three words from the title?).
-
I looked at that thread. Just want to add that I think the OP's impulse is the right one: author in Scrivener, and use Zotero + RTF scan (once you/we get it working correctly!), and export to a form that Word can read (RTF, say). The problem with u…
-
How do you know this? Have others tried and failed to convince Z? It comes down to basic math. Zotero is a cross-platform app that runs on Windows, MacOS, and Linux, and has hundreds of thousands of users (not sure the exact number, but it's big). …

I also started some ideas on workflow/process on the project wiki. https://github.com/citation-style-language/styles/wiki/Requesting-styles-or-submitting-bug-reports
-
Right. So the second line should be indented w/hanging indent.
-
@adamsmith - it seems to me the preferable solution to the indenting issue is to do it with paragraph styles. So the author heading, for example, would have one paragraph style (say, simply, "bibliography"), and the other blocks another (maybe "bibl…

Let me just say again that I would strongly encourage you to engage your faculty on this. More and more styles are moving away from accessed dates, which are a relict of early internet days. Indeed. Ask your supervisors to read this thread; many of …

@michopop yes, this is related. I think at this point it's probably time to entirely rethink how citation insertion and editing work in Zotero, and that this use case be part of that rethink. Issues with the current approach: - no support for refe…
-
No. There have been previous discussions here about testing for values, and you're unlikely to see this support in CSL.
-
Not an answer to your question, but why are you including italics in that title? That looks like a book chapter to me, but that you're entering both item and book title in the same title field?
-
OK only means I think that's a reasonable option to consider for CSL, Zotero, and the RDF import/export representation. I have no idea how long it would take to resolve and implement, but I doubt it'll be in the next month.
-
My thoughts only (also depends on input from Zotero devs like Dan Stillman): How is this relevant to the discussion per se? OK, but this will vary according to style. Again: don't see how it's relevant, except to note it needs different formatting.…
-
@jacek.tom - I don't have time now, but you're looking in the wrong place for the solution to your problem; there's another attribute to turn off "and" behavior.
-
FWIW, what I meant more concretely was ... The way the bibtex world handles sectional bibs is to allow citations to be assigned to named groups ("primary", "peer-reviewed", "other", "media", "legal", whatever). This is the solution I tend to prefer…
-
I've come around to the belief this probably isn't the domain of CSL, but rather of the bib app (in this case, Zotero/citeproc-js). And I don't think sections should be based on type, because often people want sections that don't really correspond…
-
Why not simply ask about to create an annotated bibliography using Zotero (maybe report --> xslt?), rather than the convoluted hack? Granted, Zotero is still weak on this, but I still think using Access for annotated bibs is odd.
-
There is a die-hard community of Frame users who'd love to be able to use Zotero. Of what ... 20 people? Even if it's 1000, it's orders of magnitude smaller than Word and OpenOffice. Don't mean to be rude, but you need to consider the economics/la…
-
Ask me again in a week or two :-) Obviously if others have thoughts in the meantime, that'd be good.

Related thread: http://forums.zotero.org/discussion/13345/storage-plans-10gb-25gb-is-too-big-a-step/ The price seems pretty reasonable, and I'm not so sure about adding a bunch more steps.
-
So it's a bug. The locator conditional is defined as a (space-separated) list. Hence, the validator sees those as two values: "sub" and "verbo".
-
Might have something to do with encodings and interaction with your validator? It might also make sense to consider changing "sub verbo" to "sub-verbo". Any objections to that?

BTW, can someone look at what's going on with forum rendering? If I go to an anchor within a forum page, the top gets cut off.

I find in the Weaver's Association Archives, in a folder marked "20xx Convention Presentations," the draft of John Doe's presentation about "Underwater Basket Weaving" delivered on May x, 20xx at the Eclectic Society's annual convention in Boston. …

Just think if you can imagine some little change to, say, the existing Book type that would allow you to distinguish these items from a more generic book. For sake of argument, possible options: a type selector with options like "critical edition"…

I'm primarily responsible for the citation styling language and some data export issues, both of which are independent of Zotero (used in various projects/contexts). So those are my concerns here. E.g. I'm looking at a longer-term and generic soluti…

OK, so then you're talking about what other people describe as "classical works"? See: http://forums.zotero.org/discussion/9293/classical-citations/

Look, I'm a scholar who often does archival research, so I know the distinction in general. What I'm asking is about your particular understanding of it so that I can try to help figure out a general solution. It sounds to me like you're effectivel…

Right, but what IS it? A book? A classical work? What makes it "primary"?
