It works normally for me in non-logged-in state. I haven't been able to test from within Uni (and I don't see Manly Online among our proxied collections). I will be traveling for the next week, but I'll try to check back along the way, in case there…

There haven't been any negative reports on the new name particle parsing kit described above. In test fixtures, it performs a little better than the previous code. As it will be easier to control things with the new method, I've rolled it out in the…

Put the language code for the item in the Language field (so "es" for Spanish). The title-casing that you're seeing is only applied to English titles (so "en").
-
Perhaps the Title Case/Sentence case transform in the Zotero UI should apply the transform to the Title and Short Title fields in unison.
-
this is documented in your book, right? Yep, at p.6, with an example on p.78. I wanted to stress that it's experimental, though - it's based on field-matching heuristics, and I'm not sure how well it will handle Civil Law cites, or how well it will …

There is support for parallel citations in MLZ, although it is not guaranteed to work correctly with all cites and styles. It may work for your requirements, but you'll have to try it and see. If you encounter problems, we can look at the use case, …
-
Thanks, that might be handy to have- so long as I'm not the only one with a copy. As I wrote in response to @nickbart's post above, I'm trying to get out of the ad hoc hackery game at this point. Names handling is important, but it really needs to b…
-
There are a lot of language environments out there. I'd be much more comfortable having this coded into the locales.
-
That is very likely. In the bug you encountered, MLZ was saving a record with the same language marked in the main field as in one of the variants. Only one of the can be displayed by the logic of the user interface, so the phantom record lurked and…
-
I don't think we have discussed a concrete solution. It would be best to control this through CSL, I think. In the CSL-m schema extension, I added an experimental leading-noise-words attribute. (Looking at it now, the list of words in that setup s…
-
Gracile: Thanks! The results should at least not be worse than before. There is some scope for further tuning within this approach, although there will be limits.
-
Yep, out of luck (glad I mentioned that!).
-
The abbreviation lists are shipped with the plugin. The plugin source is here, the abbreviation lists (a submodule of the plugin) is here. There isn't a toggle for pagination by issue per se, but an abbreviation entry can trigger suppression of sel…

(Following on from the above, I'll note that the "parse-names" flag described in the processor manual isn't part of CSL. There was a lot of that exploratory coding in the early scramble to get the processor working. There are traces of it in the doc…

@nickbart: Thanks very much for this feedback. On the input and field markup details, could you repost to the xbiblio-devel list? I'm trying to get out of the ad hoc hackery game at this point - if the CSL group arrives at a set of preferences for h…
-
This is probably known enough already, but just for the record: out of necessity, I've constructed a registry of world courts, to support the Jurisdiction field in MLZ. There is no other source for this information (honest - I checked with a friend …
-
@zuphilip: Thanks! Up in a release soon.
-
Sarala, Good news for you, I think. I was able to reproduce the error (and a couple of others). A fresh version is up (4.0.26m512), which should be much more well-behaved. Post again if you have any more problems; although we have had bugs in the …
-
(Oh - and this should fix the issue with the al- prefix reported by @joehill.)
-
Okay, trial versions of citeproc-js with the new particle parser are up now in the processor patch plugin and the uppercase gadget. Not much detail to report. You can see the list of particles (with lots of numeric parameter clutter, sorry about th…

Very few law journals in the U.S. paginate by issue. It wants a solution, but it doesn't come up that often. If someone has a list of journals that paginate by issue, I can make an abbreviation list of them, and add it to the Abbreviation Filter. It…
-
So now you see why I opened this thread - this is what my mail queue on this subject has looked like. Keep the comments coming, this is all very useful. I won't respond on policy issues, but when I have code that threads the needle as best may be, …
-
We still had to do parsing, to figure out where the particle stops and the proper name begins. Early on, I assumed particles were lowercase, which made that easy. Then came several requests for uppercase particles. That caused some false positives, …
-
Okay, got it. You are wanting a means of abbreviating some terms in a title via the plugin, which is independent of the Short Title form. That's what we need for legal referencing, and in MLZ, that is the way legal materials (only) work. I was pres…
-
In that style, it appears to add journal names to the list, even though it is not rendered as form="short" anywhere. That's misleading, and should be fixed at some point; but with the style modified to set form="short" on the series name, it should …
-
(In the CSL editor ("Open Style Editor" from Preferences -> Advanced), you will also get an Abbrevs. popup button, but the popup there is broken, in the same way as the word processor integration plugin popup was (until a few minutes ago). There …
-
It was just broken in the integration popups (sorry about that). If you update to 1.0.201, it should work now. You should be able to use form="short" on any ordinary field to get an entry in one of the lists. I'm not sure about the customization y…
-
If you don't hear in a week or so, post a ping. I'd like to set this up, but other things press at the moment.
-
Yep, that all looks right. On exporting a list of abbreviations used in the document, that's a good idea. It's not currently possible, but I'll look into it. For a start, at least, we'll aim for just a primitive list that you can paste into the wor…
-
Would you mind letting me know what changes are required to that style in order for the plugin to work? If the Abbreviation Filter is installed, it will kick in when the collection-title variable is rendered with form="short": If you find the place…
