Yes. This should just work. Have you tried it?

Would have to see the style code. The australian-guide-to-legal-citation.csl in the Zotero repository has a prefix that would cause that. To share the code you can paste it to http://gist.github.com, save it as a Public Gist, and paste the URL back …

You can take adamsmith's question at face value, so to speak. In the citation style used in your text, if you were preparing the manuscript by hand, how would you write the citation? If you are unsure, you'd either need to make a judgment call on ho…

Content categories are a fuzzy case. "Computer software" can be conditioned on the item type, but something like "Festschrift" would need to be carried in a field, or conditioned on other content. Kind of a horses-for-courses thing. (Re [3] I meant…

@gasolineheat: You'll be more likely to attract assistance if you can provide specific details on what needs to be fixed in the style. You can also make adjustments yourself, using the Visual Editor. Here is a page of guidance: https://github.com/c…

@Joel, It's not relevant to the current official Zotero layout, but in Multilingual Zotero I have tentatively added a "Jurisdiction" field to Journal Article, to cover the annotation practice in Japan. When present, it would indicate that the artic…

I like the flexibility that (1) would offer. I'm obviously in favour of (2), given the state of the MLZ database schema. I feel a little cautious about (3), since each new term adds a little burden to i18n maintenance.
-
Thanks for bumping this thread: the issues mentioned here deserve some attention. (If you replace "competitive" with "cooperative" there, you'll be closer to the mark. :-)
-
That's it. If the term is made available in the locale files, the specification could make the connection between locale term and the and="symbol" attribute on cs:name explicit. The issue to watch would be with styles that redefine the unadorned fo…
-
Yep, defining the term is legal. The problem is that the processor has "&" hard-wired internally, and the shipped locales don't have that form of "and" defined. In MLZ, I've added the symbol form to all locales, and enabled use of the term. By d…

You can search here.
-
Ouch, I didn't realize that was happening. Would you like to have the new Taiwan legal style in the MLZ distribution?
-
Brilliant. This was a careless error on my part. The testimonyBy creator is added by MLZ, and the sync mapping (to make it compatible with the Zotero sync servers) was missing. It's now fixed: after updating MLZ, sync will work again for that combi…
-
(spammers have been busy this evening) I have a fix for the processor that should render correctly with your preferred input. I'm waiting for feedback on a fix for another issue: when that comes through, I'll make a fresh release of the processor a…
-
I've put up what might be a better fix. Try installing or re-installing the patch plugin and see how it goes.
-
The corrected style should now be available via CitationStylist.
-
If there are steps to reproduce the fault I can take a look.
-
My bad. This sort pattern was added to the style for local masters' thesis at the last submission cycle. The change shouldn't have been applied to the distributed version of the style. What adamsmith says will restore normal sorting. I'll be applyi…

Oops, I missed the regexp for initials. We should slow down for a moment, though. How does name ordering work in Greek? Should Greek names be handled in the same way as other West European names? Or are they normally family-name-first (sort order)?…
-
@jww5dt: In a nutshell, it is not in the commercial interest of West to facilitate the use of third-party tools with their monolithic research service. None of the big three publish structured metadata in their pages, and without their cooperation, …
-
I've extended the Greek characters recognised in the processor -- not sure where I picked up the narrower set from. You can test the changes by installing (in Firefox only) the processor patch plugin. It can (and should) be removed at the next Zoter…
-
I'll make a note of the error: this obviously should not happen, and I'm curious how it could have arisen. Restoring a library from RDF is not ideal, since any links to documents created against the original database content will be lost. If you ge…
-
That will remain constant. The second form will set two separate citations in the final document, though, so (I think) you will get two separate footnotes in CMS Full Note, if it's set that way in the main text?
-
Thanks for pointing this out. I've fixed the locale.
-
It wouldn't have changed due to the LibreOffice upgrade: I get the same result here with similar input. The cite transition is smoother if the prefix text is moved to the suffix of the preceding cite. Semantically it doesn't belong there, though, a…
-
Does it throw an error message (shown by an exclamation next to the sync icon)? If so, what shows when you click on the error icon?
-
If you can wait a week or two, it looks like a 4.0.13 release is imminent. When it comes out, this should be fixed in both Zotero for Firefox and Standalone.
-
Thanks. I've run out of development time for the week, but I'll take a look at this (and the interviews issues) next weekend.
-
For the interim, and along the same lines, there is a maintenance script in Python that I used for keeping the initial six styles "in sync". With it, you can specify a "parent" style and one or more macros to import. The script can remove the macro …

Great stuff! Modularity is indeed the most important remaining issue for the CSL-m extensions, both for language domains and jurisdictions. Allowing explicit dependencies in the CSL itself would be complicated, since we would need to assure that t…
