Okay ... the processor is performing correctly on the style. The sort keys for the bibliography come from the "author" macro, and from the "issued-year" macro. The actual keys used by the processor are the following, for the sample data: Item 1:keys…
-
APA seems to be missing an explicit year-suffix in one of the date macros, which could be a source of trouble. But I'll wait for the sample data before looking further.
-
If you have a minimal set of entries that show the bad behavior, could you export them as Zotero RDF, paste to http://gist.github.com/, save as a public gist, and post the address from the address bar back here? I'd like to get to the bottom of this.
-
They seem to be coming out at monthly intervals or so.
-
That's certainly odd. The year-suffix letters should be applied in bibliography order. Which style?
-
Great, thanks for the explanation. Reverse numbering actually does sound more convenient. I'll check in the change, and it should make its way into the next Zotero release.
-
The current processor cannot do this: when sort is performed on the citation-number variable in descending order, it instead reverses the sequence of items, and then numbers them in ascending order, starting with 1. This seems to make little sense, …
-
Interesting use case. I'm curious. Why do you want to do this?
-
The citeproc-js date parsing module (which I heard awhile back is a candidate for adoption in Zotero) can be extended with arbitrary sets of locale month names (and will disambiguate months by adding characters to the short form used for matching, i…
-
Is the author entered in single-field mode in the Zotero database?
-
This is still at the discussion stage, but as I'm now digging into style development myself, and as this is clearly needed in note styles, something is likely to happen on it fairly soon.
-
The update may not have come through in Zotero yet, but the latest processor inserts no space: it just removes the periods. When 2.1.9 comes out, you should start getting the results you're after.
-
@caldwelljules, @jacknewberry, After a little discussion off-list, we have some tentative answers. As Rintze mentions, the NZ L Style Guide appears to permit names to be uniformly initialized, in which case initialize-with="" covers the use case. …
-
Just to note that even with initials only, the style requires that spaces between initials be closed within names, and not elsewhere. (Further discussion under the ticket Rintze has opened.)
-
In CSL discussions, changes that are likely to impact implementations are referred their respective developers for feedback and consent. I'm one of those, there are others. The two people most closely involved in shepherding the CSL schema and speci…
-
Thanks for these examples, this is very helpful. It still looks like we'll be able to cope without changes to CSL. How does this sound: - For names, strip-periods should aggressively collapse spaces between single initials; and - In other contexts,…

Auto-updating now seems to be working. After your next manual update, it should offer to upgrade when there are changes.
-
Chicago incorporates Bluebook by reference, and I imagine that AMA would do the same. Legal support is pretty shaky at the moment, and tidying things up will require adjustments to the data layer, to CSL, and to styles. Statutes are the most difficu…
-
I had correspondence with the EasyBib project a year ago, when they were considering deployment of CSL. I believe their recent mail only went out to the authors of styles that were missing a rights attribute -- I only received a notice concerning bl…
-
The update is now online, you can install from the usual XPI link. Auto-updating is not working yet, there's a problem with the signature. It will be sorted out in due course, but for now I'll post back here about any updates.
-
I find the current arrows somewhat spartan and unsophisticated, even if turned. Well, we don't want that, no siree, you bet!
-
I did some work on it yesterday. Arrows have been duly rotated, an tooltip rollovers implemented (in local build). While I'm at it, I decided to set up auto-updating. Once that's working, I'll post an announcement.
-
1. initialize-with="delimiter". Which describes the method of initialization. Sets the delimiter for initials. 2. initialize="true" or "false", defaults to true if initialize-with is set, otherwise false. When true, initialization is forced on all n…
-
Jules, I've tried using initialize-with="" but it currently forces all names to be initialised.If I am reading your previous post correctly, you want input of "Alan J. P. Taylor" to come out as "Alan JP Taylor"? This isn't possible currently, but I'…
-
Concerning strip-periods, the most recent versions of the CSL processor do not substitute a space for stripped periods. This works will for most cases, but will mess up your NZ.L.Rev, rendering it as "NZLRev". To solve is correctly, we need proper s…
-
Jules, Welcome to the family. :) The legal styles are indeed a particularly thorny problem, but some coordination is beginning to emerge in our response to the underlying issues. I'll write a bit later about some of the details, but for a start I'…
-
The harvard1.csl style should already be sorting the bibliography alphabetically by author. Is that not working for you?
-
Myhailo, As Avram indicated, I'm keen to see improved support for law-related materials, including patents. Your list of desiderata at (2) is very valuable; the Bluebook reference for legal citation in US law reviews etc is not so demanding, and it…
-
You'd have to be more specific, but something to check for a start would be disambiguation. If you have two items that start with the same author, names will be added until the reader can tell them apart.
-
Can anyone reproduce this?
