(I've found one anomaly, at least. With the "Move Up" menu item, when the preceding creator in the list is of a different type, the move clones the headline entry onto the previous item, instead of performing a proper move. But it's not the cause of…
-
This is the same as my own environment, which is a bit puzzling. What happens if you reimport the item you linked above? Does the reimported item behave in the same way, or does it render all three variants?
-
Are you sure you're not using another style? In-text cites for the "Modern Language Association 7th edition" style can't print a date, no matter what is in the item data. Just can't happen. Just in case, here's a link to the style in the Zotero Sty…

Also: check whether this happens in a fresh document.
-
Hmm. Still works fine with those settings, in the CSL:edit pane and in the word processor. Next the environment ... What are your platform (Windows, Mac OSX) and Firefox version? While we're at it, we might as well check the exact MLZ version as wel…
-
Let's try the settings next. Can you post screenshots of your language preferences, in the document and in MLZ itself? At least then we can be sure we're sending the same data to the processor.
-
(It does look like MLZ CMS Full Note, though. If that's the case, it's not failing here. What is your current MLZ version?) [Edit: ah, sorry. Most recent version. Hmm. Do confirm the style, just in case.]
-
It's still not failing for me. Which style are you using? (If it's a custom style, please post it in the same way as the RDF.)
-
(Testing with a hand-crafted entry in MLZ, I was again unable to reproduce it, so I'll definitely need an export of your data.)
-
It shouldn't be doing that to you. I can't reproduce it in a processor test fixture, but that doesn't mean there isn't a problem. It's hard to image how it could happen, but maybe MLZ itself is truncating the data in some way. For testing in the ML…

Support in translators will be a separate thing. We could add a utility function, it would be up to individual site translators to call it on specific fields. This (support in CSL-m) will be a first step toward that. Will probably get this in place …

I have noticed this on students' Mac machines, and I can understand how it could get annoying. For what it's worth, Linux doesn't seem to behave this way. I'll keep an eye on it, but I'm not sure what causes it. The core Zotero plugin support code c…

I reckon so, if it's a general requirement.
-
See how this works. You'll need to add an explicit space to the term with   or so. There is a test here,
-
Yes, post-processing of the final string isn't viable, since markup may intervene between the characters to be compared. The check needs to be done immediately before each node of the internal representation is flattened to a string, in a depth-firs…
-
I can make that happen, then, but it will probably wait for someone to press for it -- I'm leery of touching RTL stuff, since it's not working well yet (apparently due to word processor glitches that vary across products). For name spacing generall…
-
also relevant for Hebrew, where the "and" (the so called vav - ו ) has a space before it but not after it.Do you mean that it's supposed to, or that it wrongly comes out that way?
-
For the time being, we'll just have to suffer with it, but I do think that handling can be improved. As I wrote above, a smarter approach to flattening the output should yield better results (and reduce the amount and complexity of the processor cod…
-
When I get to it, I'd like to tweak CSL-m (for MLZ) to implement these. There would be several conversions. For the number 231... 二三一 二百三十一 弐百参拾壱 231
-
I skimmed over the specification, but couldn't find the new additions.They are these three -- the global name-order and short-form settings. Tagging the primary name as "ja-alalc97" produces the correct Lastname Firstname order, but it would require…
-
Have heard back word from the MN editors. They seem not to be aggressively interested, and express a moderate concern about the possibility that style development might require a commitment of time. I won't be picking this one up myself, but as I sa…
-
(The rule seems to be clear. I just won't have the programming hours to put into making it happen for styles written like this for the next couple of months or so.)
-
If you are running this in MLZ, using two layouts should be okay. There are some validation issues with the style code, though. You should also check that you are running the latest version of MLZ. You can check the style using the CSL-m validator.…
-
Yep. This probably crept in with a major rewrite of the conditional code some months ago. It was caused by the tiniest of typos, and is now fixed. You can pick up the repair by installing the processor patch plugin. Its only effect is to swap in the…
-
(Actually, looking at my little example, it does seem that if the extreme affixes were preserved at each stage of a depth-first rendering traverse of the object, both controlling for duplicates and punctuation-in-quote handling could be greatly simp…
-
I've added a couple of options to CSL-m that would be relevant to this, and I've written to the Monumenta Nipponica editors to sound out their interest in MLZ support. We'll see how it goes.
-
No problem, those are being posted as humour (and will eventually have a good run, making for a happy ending as required of comedy ...). The style is setting the comma as a prefix buried in a macro. To the processor, the internal structure looks so…
-
I've taken a look at the examples, and I see the issue: English works by an author who publishes predominantly in Japanese need to be set in romanised form but Japanese order, without the original kanji form of the name; but the kanji form does need…
-
MLZ can handle this. Language variants can be set on individual fields and names. You would have to implement the style against a set of test references to see if there are wrinkles in the processor that need to be ironed out, but this is the type o…

Sorry about this one. The bug was probably exposed by a small change introduced about a month ago, that slightly simplified the internal structures used to produce the finished citation output. For an immediate fix, you can install the processor pa…
