You should validate your style: http://www.zotero.org/support/dev/creating_citation_styles#xml_validation In your case, the error is in the line: "no volume" isn't a valid term. If you just want to output the text string "no volume", use:

The next version of csl will allow you to toggle the periods on and off, so that part of the issue will be solved. Just to clarify things: what will be included in CSL 1.0 is the ability to strip periods from journal abbreviations (adding periods is…

Not yet. But support for page collapsing is in the pipeline (it will be part of the next release of the Citation Style Language, 1.0).

So, if I had a number of discussions with a colleague and want to properly cite the source as "Personal communication" - what should I do? Another not that uncommon reference type is "Unpublished result". I can't recall ever having seen either pers…

I also don't think the "future date"-criterion is a good thing. If I reopen an old document in which I cited an article that was not published at the time of writing (future date), but which has been published now (past date), I wouldn't want the st…

but is unintelligible in XSLT. You're sure about that? A quick Google result suggests that JSON to XML conversion is possible with XSLT: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/559296/java-implementation-of-json-to-xml-conversion

I'm in support of being able to specify in the style which abbreviation list should be used. I think that implies that abbreviation is closely connected to CSL, but I don't see any reason why the lists couldn't be stored in JSON or another compact f…

Would also help to move other similar fields over there. Which fields would that be exactly? "Added Date", "Modified" and perhaps "Repository"? I think Zotero needs something like a "user data" tab, and to have a "label" field there. I think separat…

We should see what other programs use, too. EndNote seems to use this tab-delimited format: AACN Clinical Issues AACN Clin. Issues AACN Clin Issues AADE Editors Journal AADE Ed. J. AADE Ed J See http://www.library.uq.edu.au/endnote/journal_terms.h…

Perhaps a similar structure as used for styles would make sense, e.g.: BIOSIS http://www.zotero.org/abbreviation-lists/biosis Journal A J. A Journal B J. B ... Storing the abbreviation lists in JSON…

What agent is doing this work (downloading)? How? The same agent that can handle automatic style updating (i.e. Zotero).

CSL styles are already dependent on other files: the locales-xx-XX.xml localization files. Would the following make sense?: 3) Abbreviation lists are stored in a separate folder in the same directory as the styles folder. If bandwidth isn't an issu…

whether by an abbreviation-list attribute or by some mechanism external to CSL markup Abbreviation lists are often style-specific, so it would make sense to code it into the style. Some people have suggested URIs as attribute-values: http://forums.z…

The easiest solution might be to just add a status text field to the journal article type. If users only use the field for unpublished materials ("submitted", "in press", etc.), you can test in CSL whether the variable has any content, and if so, ap…

Wouldn't reports (http://www.zotero.org/support/reports) solve your problem?

Is that really necessary? You are already warned of the consequences of flattening the fields, and manually saving the file isn't really that much of a burden. Also, the existing shortcut in Word to flatten all fields (CTRL+SHIFT+F9) also does just …

As far as I know there is no corresponding variable to supply the short form of container-title Then how exactly are journal abbreviations supplied currently, if not via their own variable? and they would be applied always, regardless of whether the…

malvernstar seems to be talking about word processor integration, not about how the items are stored in his/her Zotero library.

Will there will be fall-back to the abbreviations supplied with the item data, instead of to the full title?

@spacediver: which styles require this? Can you provide links to the style guides?

Note to self: Wikipedia uses the term "compound names" for this type of names (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Middle_name#Catholic). As the styles conflict, I guess we either need an option in CSL to toggle between including or dropping the hyphen fo…

So full name Choi, Ji-Ho would be referenced as Choi JH. Would "Choi J-H." also be correct, or does the style really specify that the hyphen should be dropped?

Well, the subject/field categories of a given style probably won't change over time, so keeping that as metadata within the style seems to make the most sense. That said, I think there is something to say for a more comprehensive listing. Maybe the …

If I were going this, I'd rum the XHTML report output through an XSLT. I know you're eager, but "Talk Like a Pirate Day" is still a day away: http://www.talklikeapirate.com/piratehome.html
