You can make the change yourself, but the change would be overwritten when your Zotero plugin is updated. It's a pretty simple thing; it might be worth waiting for a day or two, to see if the patch finds its way into a dev release. That way things…
-
Mixing citation styles within a document isn't supported, and won't feature in the new CSL citation processor slated for Zotero 2.1, either. The new processor will allow in-field markup (for italics, boldface, super- and sub-scripting and a few oth…

You'll need to grab again, or fix up the entries by hand. What you see in the field is what is in the Zotero database.

I've uploaded a patch for this to zotero-dev. It turns out that the BibTeX translator used for Google Scholar invokes a function cleanAuthor on the author strings received from GS, which is meant to add periods after all-capital strings in the firs…
-
First impression (to me) is that the right way to fix this would be for the inter-initial space to be added in the Google data or by the translator, rather than for the CSL processor to be taught to supply it on the fly.

The collaborative translation platform used by Zotero is Babelzilla, if you'd like to contribute to the Chinese user interface and citation strings work. Several support projects for Zotero have set up auxiliary forums. Google groups is a good pla…

@cmbarton, I just ran a simple test on a fresh document with ersatz entries, each with the same last name, and with differing first names, in the Chicago Author-Date style. I get the author's name alone when citing only one work. When I add the o…

You're not missing anything, I think. The Vancouver style does not sort the bibliography, so references will appear in document order. A switch to a style that does sorting (such as Chicago Author-Date) will reorder the bibliography (so long as th…

I'm not clear on the details, but current CSL does fallbacks on the item types, and article-journal is the fallback for webpage. I think that means that a "webpage" item will return true if you test it for webpage-ness or for journal-article-ness. …

I'm seeing this too, in a standalone note. This ID with auto-sync enabled: 564318887 Problem persists after disabling auto-sync.

Dan: Yep, ordinal suffixes will be in the CSL locale files from CSL 1.0 (long ordinals "first" through "tenth" too, for good measure).
-
When you enter an item into Zotero manually, you begin by selecting a type of reference (Book, Book Section, Journal Article, etc.). What the CSL code is doing there is testing the type of the reference. In the (a) example, it is saying "If the ty…

A question for French speakers following this thread: are the two roles, "éditeur" and "directeur de publication" ever used together in the same cite?
-
Ah, okay. There's a user interface issue here, then. The prefix/suffix fields on a cite apply to a specific reference, and don't capture the entire citation when there are multiple cites. It's really a UI design decision for Zotero in the first i…
-
I see. The parens in this case enclose the citation. If this is a property of citations, it's doable, but I wonder ... in this style, if citations are always enclosed in parens, won't the publisher + year string always be enclosed in braces? On t…

Not sure if there is a better way to amend the gist, but this should address the spacing issue: http://gist.github.com/274124
-
rschellenberg: Can you provide another example of a full footnote that illustrates the desired behavior? The sticking point in the discussion is whether the parens are entered as part of the citation, or are in the word processor text. I'm curious…
-
Most decorations (boldface, superscript) for most elements in CSL are applied only to the content rendered by the element, and not to the prefix and suffix strings. For the most part, this is the desired behavior (an italicized title, for example, …

This thread should help. The solution that goes through about:config is the one you will want: http://forums.zotero.org/discussion/2041/changing-language-settings-of-citation/

@Cris, the new CSL processor, which should start appearing in the next version after 2.0, sometime later this year, will deliver rendered citation data in a form that lends itself to styling in the plugin, with named environments around blocks of t…

zorn: That does set the braces in superscript, doesn't it? Well done, and if I suggested that this was not currently possible, I stand corrected. An additional issue, though, is that the IEEE style guide requires that a range of reference numbers…
-
Separate styling of the et-al term is not possible in the current CSL processor installed in Zotero, although this will become possible in a future version.

Nathan, we want your help. Give me a day or two, and I'll check out whether BZ works for me. I'll post back what I find out to this thread, and let's take it from there.

Tacking onto this thread here to say that I've more or less completely changed my mind about the attractions of a "bibzot" utility. My dark and foreboding comment above was written in the midst of some particularly difficult work in the citeproc-js…
-
I can set up another test if further assurance is needed, but the cites to the other authors (Roe and Noakes) don't affect the cites to Doe in any way. That should work just fine.
-
Rintze's comment gave be a bit of a start, but I'm happy to confirm that the new processor will be okay on this. Using disambiguate="true" on the title variable for subsequent citations forms, we can produce the following: [1] Doe, His Book 12 (20…

@adamsmith, I haven't been following closely, but will the disambiguate condition help with these?

"Expert would be an overstatement -- but I'm very enthusiastic.

Glad to help! The screencast shows the multiple citations button opening with an empty box on the right. You may notice that when you try it in 2.0, the box is actually populated with the currently-selected single item, which saves you one whole c…

* Italicised "et al."This isn't possible currently. An upgrade to the Zotero CSL processor, to be introduced after version 2.0 is completed, will support it. * Periods following journal title contractionsI don't know the behavior of the current CSL…
