Opa Opa Citation Style! *<\/p>\n

I recently switched over to the Mendeley<\/a>\u00a0citation manager after many years of being a loyal EndNote user. I\u2019m liking Mendeley, but one thing I lost in the switch was the collection of custom citation styles I had put together during my MSc, PhD and Post-doc.<\/p>\n

\"Mendeley<\/a>

This wasn\u2019t a problem until this week when I was preparing final edits on a manuscript for The Canadian Entomologist<\/a>. Mendeley didn\u2019t have a style for TCE, but what it does have is the ability to modify existing styles and create new ones.<\/p>\n

I started with the existing style for the Canadian Journal of Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences<\/a>\u00a0because it\u2019s an old stable-mate of TCE from the NRC press days and has a very similar citation style.<\/p>\n

I used Mendeley\u2019s Visual CSL Editor:<\/p>\n

\"csl<\/a>
\nto modify the CJFAS style to output what TCE requires in it\u2019s reference section.The only \u2018big\u2019 difference I could find between is that TCE uses a comma after the journal name where CJFAS does not.<\/p>\n

I also made a few changes. For instance, the CJFAS style didn\u2019t have a output for theses so I created one for that reference class. I also modified a few of the settings to delete information that CJFAS needs but TCE doesn\u2019t.<\/p>\n

\"Reference<\/a>

Reference Output from Mendeley using the custom citation style<\/p><\/div>\n

You can download the finished product from this link:<\/p>\n

Now, what\u2019s neat, is that Mendeley\u2019s citation styles are based on the open-source Citation Style Language<\/a>\u00a0so you can use this style in any citation management program that also uses CSL (e.g., Zotero<\/a> and Papers<\/a>).<\/p>\n

A disclaimer. I hacked this together in a few hours and didn\u2019t check all reference classes, so your milage may vary! As always, check your references section carefully before submission!<\/p>\n

If you do spot an error or have a suggestion let me know here, on Twitter (@cmacquar<\/a>) or at cjkmacquarrie@gmail.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n
