author="Arnol'd" and another one with "Arnold", it is possible to redirect one author to another one (similarly with publishers and journals). This way you can handle different transcriptions, typing errors etc. After setting the redirect, only the "correct" name (of the author which gets the redirect) will be shown. As for looking up the authors alphabetically, you can do that in the author's view, sort it by name by clicking at the "Name" column.
134:, clicked on "edit this item", changed the auther field to "Sencar, Husrev T.; Ramkumar, Mahalingam; Akansu, Ali N." and pressed save, but it does not seem to work; the resulting page contains "2004array(1) { => string(4) "2004" } NULL NULL", so I guess there is a bug somewhere. By the way, I hope that you do make sure that the database is backed up regularly? I can store a copy on my computer if you want. -- 153:
So, thanks again for the testing. I myself don't have that much time, so I'm grateful for comments. Also, if you feel that there should be other features, please be sure to let me know. I'm waiting for User:CBM's help with pulling out all the existing references of the Math articles, then I'll try to
247:
Thanks. Actually I was stumbling over this bug, yesterday, too. It is now fixed. (If a token consists of n words (not separated by a semicolon), the first n-1 words are taken to be the first name, the last one to be the name). If you have any comments on how to ensure a high quality of the database
149:
As for the ISBN handling: You can input an ISBN in the look-up-field in references.php. If nothing is found, it will show a link which will then look up the appropriate page of the Diberri tool. If something is found by the tool (it looks up an ISBN database), the result is shown in the input boxes
41:
If it doesn't recognize the author, it asks the user to check. That is good. However, there are different spellings of a name ("Arnold" and "Arnol'd", to give a simple example), sometimes wildly different. I think it would be good if you could browse the author names in the database alphabetically.
339:
I currently have a "comment" field, which has no function yet. I could imagine to use this field and just append this to the template. But actually I think in this particular case it is best to create a second item for the reprinted edition (it probably also has a different ISBN, so it really is a
330:
OK, thanks. The first is kind of a bug. I only allowed for integers in the edition field, but I will change this. Ad 2: at the moment it is not possible to delete references, because I was afraid of a "deleting vandal". Nor is it possible to redirect one reference item to another one. So, at this
411:
OK. The DB will warn you whenever an existing reference is pretty similar to the one you want to add. Then, you can decide whether you want to add it anyway or not. At this time, it does not really merge the information of the new one with the data of the existing one. For example if an existing
277:
Thanks again for the testing. This was half of a bug. I now chose the following: the database internally saves only the number, i.e. if you input "3rd", it will store "3". Whenever an output is generated, however, the "3" will be made to "3rd" etc. This seems to be better than storing the string
99:
Ad 1: When adding a reference, the query for the author is sharp, i.e. not allowing merely similar names. There is no warning if a similar author exists. Both is on purpose (otherwise, as the database grows, it will likely yield unwanted results). If it happens that someone adds a reference with

For the assembling different editions of a book into one item or relating them: I guess I will introduce some mechanism which allows this. This can also be useful for translations of a book etc. Then the database at least shows you that there is a reprint, and you would then have to add the

Van Loan | title=] | publisher=Johns Hopkins | edition=3 | isbn=978-0-8018-5414-9 | year=1996}} 384:. If I import a citation for a book that is already in the database, will the system know to merge them, or will it make a duplicate? I am planning to import the new refs from that article once it's done. — Carl 379:
Thanks. I think that adding the reprint information manually is fine, and it would allow the database to have full info about both versions, which makes sense. By the way, we are using zeteo a lot in rewriting

The page formatting is done (however, I chose not to change the user's input directly (to avoid confusion on the user's part), but only to adapt it when it is exported to the Citation template).

Searching for "golub" does not yield any results; apparently the search is sensitive to case. I would make it case-insensitive.

Searching for "Arnol'd" gives some errors. You should be very careful with user-supplied data. See for instance the

Well done. More requests follow ;) Firstly, it would be nice if page ranges would automatically use an

It's a good start, but we'll have to see whether it will prove to be useful. But I've bookmarked the page.

Search for "Golub" indeed gives one of the books that I imported. However, the reply is

When you enter a reference, the page has a footnote at the author field which says

Does the system warn you if a similar name exists (like it does for publishers)?

The edition bug is now fixed. You can now input strings for the edition, too.

As for the storage of the DB: thanks, it is stored at a good hosting agency.
