Zotero metadata #1123

A wishlist & discussion item, also related to a request from Phil Forness regarding his future Homilies NHSL volume:

The metadata the Zotero plugin currently recognizes on Syriaca.org pages is minimal. It only captures the page title and URL, as a "web page", plus an HTML "Snapshot."

I have found that a useful way to enter Syriaca entries into Zotero is as a "book section" type. This has containers for the necessary information and it spits out a citation in a style that (nearly?) perfectly matches what we have recommended.

My suggestion would be Title = Entry title (/TEI/teiHeader/fileDesc/titleStmt/title[@level='a']) Authors = Entry contributors (/TEI/teiHeader/fileDesc/titleStmt/editor[@role='creator']) Editors = Volume editors (/TEI/teiHeader/fileDesc/titleStmt/editor[@role='general|associate']) (Not sure if this is correctly listed in all records) (optional) Contributors = /TEI/teiHeader/fileDesc/titleStmt/respStmt/name (optional) Series editors = /TEI/teiHeader/fileDesc/seriesStmt[1]/editor Book Title = Volume title (/TEI/teiHeader/fileDesc/seriesStmt[1]/biblScope[1]/title) Series = Module title (/TEI/teiHeader/fileDesc/seriesStmt[1]/title) Series number = /TEI/teiHeader/fileDesc/seriesStmt[1]/biblScope[1]/@from Publisher = Syriaca.org Date = /TEI/teiHeader/fileDesc/publicationStmt/date URL = [idno from canonical location]

We would also need to discuss if there are any formats besides HTML snapshot that the record should be downloaded in when imported into Zotero.

Here's an example for http://syriaca.org/person/9 zotero

@nathangibson Thanks, I think this would be a great addition.
