When coding the SIST-02 style (Japanese + English) I had a similar problem, and introduced a "locale" attribute that I haven't gotten around to documentating yet. There are several examples in the style.

If you still have a copy of the failing doc and if it's not confidential, we can take a look. (biercenator at gmail).
-
It's been fixed now. If you update MLZ you should get better behavior from name-as-sort-order="first".
-
Nice. What it's doing there is treating both sets of given names as if they start off the series. Institutional author affiliations aren't supported in Zotero, so they haven't been exercised very heavily, and this is an edge case that hasn't been ir…

Well spotted, the AmLaw backreference needs to be fixed. I missed the example at fn. 4 of Rule 17.6. (For the benefit of folks who might come past this thread in future, in the appearance of the citation on the page, the Bluebook form is a descript…

Now fixed in the processor. You can test the changes by installing the processor patch plugin (in Zotero for Firefox only). The only effect of the plugin is to swap in the latest version of the CSL processor. The plugin can (and should) be removed a…

Missed that, thanks. Updated now.

MLZ should serve well if you do a lot with legal citations. It is certainly possible to shift back to official Zotero if you prefer. The steps described by adamsmith will restore the local library in Zotero format. It's the simplest method, but it …
-
I've implemented a localised symbolic form of "and" for names formatting in MLZ. You can get the "soft comma" in your style by adding this to the terms area of the locale section: 、 Using and="symbol" on cs:name or cs:institution will call the loca…

(As a side note, the logic for gracefully rendering date ranges exists in the citation processor; the difficulty is in storing the date range information neatly in the Zotero database, so that it can be sent to the processor in a structured form. ML…

It's true that messing with field content is always a potential source of headaches, but the processor is very good about this. In a US-English style, outer quotes are always double-quotes, and inner quotes are always single in the output, regardles…
-
A simpler interim workaround would be to use single quotes ('quotes') instead, which results in proper double-quotes in the output (the processor does the conversion, so the quotes will be single- or double- as appropriate to the style).
-
It looks like straight quotes in the affixes break things, because they are used internally for quoting the data. We can address this by converting quotes in the string to open- and close-quotes, which we ultimately want anyway. Bear with: we'll nee…
-
The plugin could be made to work with Standalone. It's just a matter of putting in the time in to fix the install method and test the setup. Unfortunately, time is a scarce commodity at this end for the next several months, and since the plugin is u…
-
I tried to install a plug in that would do law citations. I had to install an older version of Zotero to make it work, but my data had already been converted to the new version. It does sound as though you installed MLZ, but let's confirm that for s…

You can't delete the group from inside the client: it's done through the website. In the client, double-click on the (brown) folder icon for the group. In the online view of the group, click on "Group settings", and you will see a red "Delete Group"…

@adamsmith: Good catch. I saw those mentioned in the discussion, but left them out in the first draft to simplify the initial coding. It's been refreshed again, should now capitalise after exclamation points and question marks as well.
-
The code was easy (a change to a single character did the trick). I've refreshed the patch plugin. Looking forward to the next bug. :-)
-
Nicely tested. This is an accidental result of the implementation, but it's probably simpler to focus on the desired output. Correct to assume that both prepositions should be lowercased?
-
Ah. I need to update my installation note. The processor patch plugin only works with Zotero for Firefox. Sorry for the confusion. I've tested that combination, and it definitely works with the new processor.
-
Great to hear, thanks for reporting back. It's likely the updated processor will appear in Zotero 4.0.13 when it comes out. The fix went in at citeproc-js version 1.0.489. The current version is 1.0.491.
-
The patch plugin should be happier now: it was completely failing to capitalise "stop words" following a colon. Sorry for that false start.
-
In fairness, though, you do have a point. The two systems store reference data in the document, in a common format. To get them playing nicely with one another will require the ability to migrate an item in reverse, from the document to the (alien) …
-
Thanks for testing, all! I'll take another look.
-
Ah, right. Some of the discussion above suggests the possibility of forcing a capital after a colon even without case-conversion, if the reference is identified as being in English. I suspect that doing that might cause more confusion rather than l…
-
@TTLP: If the bug is that citations inserted by two separate products do not behave seamlessly as if inserted with one or the other of them, I'd agree with adamsmith that that's pushing the term beyond its normal meaning.
-
I've read through the thread, and I wasn't sure, so I'll ask. What is the known bug?
-
Dan: We have logs from a couple of sync runs that triggered the error (as per duncdrum's pasted error above, it was an attempt to insert an already-existing tag record). It looks like an inter-leaved change to tags caused the error, and there don't …
-
At least take one step toward isolating the citation. Copy-paste the first 50 pages to one fresh document, and copy-paste the second 50 pages to another. Then check whether one document succeeds while the other fails.
-
Some of the cite forms in that style may need adjustment. If you spot any problems, let us know.
