Hmm. Yes. I'll liaise with the team about how to handle references to the multilingual work in the wiki.
-
Excellent! Glad to hear it's working for you.
-
I've fixed this in the processor now, and made a release of citeproc-js. The new behavior will make its way into an upcoming beta release of Zotero when the core developers pick it up. Thanks for pressing on this.
-
The copy of the Harvard 1 style file that I have here declares that if there are three names, they should be truncated with et al. The second article above has five authors (haven't checked the other one). So it looks like it's working as expected. …

Katie: Sweet. This just might tempt me to get started with the whole academic weblog thing.
-
Glad you've found it! It would be a computer science journal. :)
-
I found the problem here, actually. When generating a bibliography for the clipboard, Zotero generates the text in HTML, and the outputs it as plain text using XML magic. The CSL processor was including a character in the automatically generated HT…
-
I can reproduce this, and will look into it early next week if it isn't solved before then.
-
Which style, which Zotero version, which system, some information about the references themselves ...
-
Nice! In the final phase of building citeproc-js, I had the idea of such a style (numeric in-text references, bib sorted alphabetically) as a kind of torture test for the code base; it will only work if the processing sequence is exactly right. Wha…
-
I put in some time working on duplicates detection and management in the multilingual client this weekend, and I'm happy to report that it now appears to be fast and serviceable. It uses an algorithm similar to that currently implemented in the hidd…
-
Great. That's all I needed to get me moving in that direction.
-
Flipping between locales (and even whole styles) according to the language tag of the reference is implemented in citeproc-js. There are a couple of illustrative tests here: https://bitbucket.org/fbennett/citeproc-js/src/44a634db9054/tests/fixture…

I think the original poster's main concern was with the collapsing behavior. His style gets year suffixes on the two Colby et al. 2008 references, and that has to be right, if the style allows/requires year-suffix disambiguation. The question is ove…
-
I vaguely recall this being intended behavior (the code was written and tested about a year ago). It's comparing the full list of names under the hood, and refusing to collapse them, as a clue to the fact that the authorship of the works actually di…
-
For what it's worth, the following produces an et al. trailer in italics in the citeproc-js test framework. It should work in Zotero as well:
-
From your note, I'm not sure whether you're having trouble with et al. or with italics ... could you describe the effect you want to produce a little more fully?
-
One person reported that the error cleared when they set Zotero to the APA style before refreshing. I'm not sure exactly whether or why that would step around the fault, but the flaw in the code was buried deep in the innards of the processor, so it…
-
This is a known problem in Zotero 2.1b5. It will be fixed in the next beta release.
-
@ajlyon: Indeed! Another disambiguation bug report arrived this morning (oh, dear), but we're getting down to the fine points now. The prospects for revision of that text are looking brighter by the day (!).
-
Okay, I understand. What you describe isn't an atomic sort (where the sort key of an item is determined by its own content, without reference to other items in the set), but grouping. CSL doesn't support grouped sorting, and I'm afraid that it's unl…
-
You're right that the sort is applied first before collapsing, but I don't understand why that is a problem. If the sort keys are author, then date, the cites collapse and the dates for each author come out in ascending (or descending) order. If you…
-
(1) The + column indicates that there is (or is not) an attachment to the item. (2) You can't add custom fields.
-
Simon has pegged the cause of the error (my patch was a hack that got things going, but did not address the underlying cause). The new code will be in the next 2.1 beta release.
-
Glad to hear!
-
@mdoube, At line 139, insert this: What's happening is that the processor sees that you use an explicit year-suffix text node elsewhere in the style (in the year-date macro), and assumes that when you want the year-suffix to be rendered, you will l…
-
This is a known issue, and a fix is in the works.
-
It seems to me that this use case can be addressed with a few relatively small changes to the current interface. First, I misspoke above: I see that the "Edit Bibliography" button works regardless of where the cursor is placed in the document. So y…
-
"Edit Bibliography" should be among the buttons available in your word processor. Place the cursor in the bibliography, click on that button, and you should be able to add uncited references. [edit: the "Edit Bibliography" button works regardless o…
-
This should be possible by sorting on a macro, rather than the variable name. This is definitely the case for Zotero 2.1beta / CSL 1.0: http://citationstyles.org/downloads/specification.html#sorting I'm pretty sure that this works in Zotero 2.0 as…
