This should be fixed now (in MLZ 4.0.14m422). There were a number of problems in the application of locales. I've tested the obvious problem cases (invalid locales and alternative region codes set in the item language field), and I'm pretty confide…
-
Well, that's not good. There seems to be a hole in the test suite that let this bug slip through on styles with multiple locale layouts. Will have a repair out soon.
-
In MLZ, we can use the Abbreviation Filter to refactor the field content for specific styles. In that case, putting the city and country into the field would still be the way to go, since removing information is easy and has predictable results. (T…

@gjuggler: please don't forget legal support. It's a hard case, without clear international standards yet, but everybody cites it at some point.
-
The processor could be tuned to suppress the delimiter or terminal punctuation in this case, but I'm not sure it's a good idea to go that far. Let's wait until adamsmith and others have a chance to sound in. If some styles or locales want to preserv…

I wouldn't favour a GUI for multiple locator labels. Parsing shorthand labels out of the field (for pluralising and localising them) is easier to implement and probably less cumbersome to users (at least it seems so to me).
-
That won't be implemented. Apart from the complexity if it, there would be guesswork involved -- what looks like a paragraph boundary can be marked up in all sorts of ways inside the file.
-
In what ways is the formatting wrong under your style requirements?
-
Thanks, that's helpful -- I wasn't able to tell what was citation and what was affix. Your raw text sometimes puts text inside the braces (and so under Zotero control), and sometimes outside (so controlled by the word processor). Zotero can't respo…
-
Forgive me for a lack of background knowledge, but which resource do the Ibids refer to in the example?
-
The chrome.manifest locales apply to the Zotero user interface. CSL style locales are stored separately. An fr-CA locale is shipped with CSL: https://github.com/citation-style-language/locales/blob/master/locales-fr-CA.xml If there are mistak…

The Zotero developers are working on it. https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/33117/wont-sync/#Item_4

Confirmed, I can reproduce this, and the behind-the-scenes view is exactly as you describe. The rendering locale for the item is not being honoured when generating sort keys. It won't be immediate, but I should be able to fix this soon.
-
Good detective work. I'll take a look.
-
There is nothing unusual about those items, so there's probably no point in exploring further. If you think it was the data in Firefox that caused the fault, you might want to check your database integrity (from Preferences -> Advanced -> File…
-
If you still have the data for the entries, export it (right-click over the entry) as Zotero RDF, paste the exported data to http://gist.github.com, save it as a "Public Gist", and post the URL back here. (If the data is no longer available, I gues…

@numbini, If you can provide a copy of the style with one or more references that produce the error, I can take a look. Unless I can reproduce the error locally, I won't be able to help.

I think it would be better to improve [CSL], rather then creating alot of sub-schema's.There seems to be some misunderstanding. No one said anything about creating a lot of sub-schemas. The CSL language is implemented by multiple processors used in…
-
Yes, there isn't a way to do this currently. You need to remove unwanted items at the final stage.
-
Joel, Thanks for this detailed overview, and for the link to the EU metadata guidance notes. Several of the extensions you recommend have been implemented in CSL-m, the extended version of CSL used by Multilingual Zotero (MLZ). A set of use cases …

(Dan: We had a similar conflict recently in MLZ, reported by user duncrum. Just in case, here's a patch that cleared it for us.) @gnadina: This is just a side-note to Dan. Do check your database integrity, he'll need that information.
-
Ouch, sorry about that. The validator should recognize those now.
-
Guilty as charged. Always happy to cause confusion. Ta.

Okay, here's what's happening. The title-short variable is used in the subsequent reference. Currently, title-short is set from the Short Title field, so if that field is empty, you get nothing in the output. The style can be fixed by testing for v…
-
I can reproduce this, and it seems a likely processor bug. What seems to be happening is that the "title-short" variable is not declaring content when it renders. Since it is grouped with the author-note macro, which produces no output on a legisla…
-
From the discussion, I assume that MLZ was never installed on SH2013's system. I'll sit on the sidelines for the debugging. If there is some way I can help, give me a shout.
-
@nickbart, I'm with adamsmith that a test of content should not be introduced into official CSL without a thorough discussion on the xbiblio-devel list. The specific test introduced here is a hack, prompted by factors that don't affect official CSL…
-
There is a similar issue with the CSL-m broadcast type, which may have "television broadcast", "radio broadcast" or "podcast" in the genre field, if it is not explicitly specified in the record. I've added terms for those (podcast, radio-broadcast,…
-
And oops ... Emacs nxml still declares the style invalid. I had missed a setting while testing, and it wasn't actually applying the schema. The online validator works though, and isn't phased by the Chinese characters.
-
The problem is that MLZ supplies the English field-content "email" and "instant message" on the respective types when the field is empty, so you would always get the English string with that code. I've implemented the test, updated the locales, che…
