Hi ewandro. I feel your pain - I went through the same challenges with first names. I finally just removed "given-name-disambiguation" until the CSL is fixed to allow only first authors to disambiguate. There are instructions on how to do that i…
-
Can you also do it by defining terms? What is the "term" for the accessed bit?
-
Stick code in between tags thus: [some code here] (without the dots...)
-
Could it also possibly look for JSTOR URLs on the first page and get info from there? This article from 2001 came up way wrong: http://www.jstor.org/stable/3061243 (Identified as as 1993 paper in the same journal)
-
BELAY THAT: Sorry I was just being dumb. It does work as expected, I just needed 8, 6.
-
Could the double-quote disables search-as-you-type option be added to the Word plug in too? I also second the request to have this as a preferences option in the main window.

Autocomplete is currently lighting quick for Author, but pretty slow for Publication and Place, which is weird 'cos there must be many less possible entries. (my Library has about 4000 items). Is the asynchronous DB access only for the Author field…
-
I would also strongly support being able to turn on an "all files show their true filenames" option. I think actually this would make the more intuitive default, with "retain source information as attachment label" as an extra option when you turn o…

Slightly unrelated, but made me happy! :-) Here's the Journal Oryx highly recommending Zotero! Is this a first directly from a journal? I'll be writing a style for Oryx when CSL 1.0 is ready (it's my field) - hopefully they'll want to be involved,…
-
SMH is no longer working. Maybe they changed their site?
-
Reply from our senior librarian: Yes, we looked at Zotero after you suggested such in 2007. The University selected EndNote as the reference management software it would supply to students and Library management agreed to support EndNote. I'm please…

OK - the problem is with Lazarus: Form Recovery 2.0.4 https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/6984 I've sent them an email to ask them to fix it.
-
Robert: 1) Works for me? If you just set label variable = "" then the p goes away 2) In the author macro, make name-as-sort-order="all" 3) Not sure this is possible with current CSL. Do you need et al. in the in-text in italics too? That…

I'm having a go with Sydney Uni library at the moment, but it seems they are very much committed to Endnote - having paid $100,000+ for a 5 year licence. The librarians also give Endnote training courses more than once a week. I've offered to demo…
-
I think Mark means to try temporarily changing the style to something else, then change it back to the one you wish to use and see if that somehow resets it and allows you to add more references.
-
I'm trying to make authors in caps, e.g. HENIGE DAVID P. appear in the biblio as Henige D.P. or Henige DP I've got it partially working with text-case="capitalize-all" But I get: Henige D.p. Discouraging Verification: Citation Practices across the…
-
Hi Robert - I can't get Author capitalization to change either. None of the various combinations of text-transform="sentence" or text-case="capitalize-first" in the obvious places seems to work for me. Any suggestions from the experts?
-
Well it's a ridiculous rule really. I'm not sure of the rationale. But that's what it says. I read it properly this time. (I'll be doing 3 CSE styles when CSL 1.0 is ready)
-
A little light bedtime reading of the CSE manual made me realise that I misread their info on disambiguation. CSE does generally specify minimal disambiguation - Frank's behaviour a). But if both authors of a two author paper have the same surname, …

Now wouldn't it be nice if journals stuck to those standards, instead of making their own arbitrary changes! I've enjoyed these two articles on the craziness of the current situation, from the Times Higher Education Supplement, and a blog. Unfortu…
-
Take a look here Si and see if you can follow this step-by-step guide. Any tips on making the page clearer would be useful.
-
Any input into the knowledge base article on this topic would be good. At the moment I've linked it back to Rintze's nice workaround on this page, but someone might be able to summarise nicely at the KB page.
-
I'd also appreciate any input into this page on standards, which is linked from the new Styles FAQ.
-
OK I've transferred the answers into kb articles, tagged them with csl_faq and generated a list at the original Styles FAQ page (with a brief preamble). I guess there's no way to change the order that the tagged items are returned (alphabetic) or t…
-
Yeah - that's the page I meant. Your emphasis on search is sensible for most people, though I do find it useful (on other sites) to read through the FAQ. It's often a de-facto tips and tricks page (though of course you have one of those already. …
-
@ Dan OK - accepted that this is the current standard, but it's also nice to be able to read all 9 points in one go without having to click 18 times. I think the current FAQ is also not ideal in this regard. The links aren't all that easy to read…
-
Yeah, agree this would be a great addition. Just as a tip, when I find un-indexed items, google often has OCR copies of the pdfs that I take HTML snapshots of. If you have pdfs that you scanned yourself, you can even co-opt google to OCR your stuf…
-
Yes - sorry I should have made that clear. Year required for all 3 (if known).

Hey thanks TJ. I just send the URLs to myself too, and I don't need it much, but I had some questions from students - they use library computers much more often than me. I'm running part 2 of the Zotero intro session for them next week - I'll just r…
