== Author parsing ==

So after the latest blowup over template changes, I think adopting the "vauthors=" mechanism from [[Template:Vcite2 journal]] is worth serious consideration. The current approach is very unambiguous, but having the first and last name of every author as a separate parameter makes for very bloated markup, and it's definitely a burden on those of us who are still hand-typing citations. I support the goal of making our references into something semantically meaningful, because I think that many useful tools for article curation could be built if we had a reliable way of identifying which articles were supported by which references, which journals, books, authors, etc. But the content has to come first: if the semantic markup scheme is deterring authors from editing, there is a serious problem. In the big picture, it's much more important to have people identify sources in medical articles as being [[WP:MEDRS]] (or not) than it is for those references to emit correct metadata. (I think the medical articles tend to be a bigger friction point because they often have very large author lists that bloat enormously.)

So, is it possible to graft the parsing code for "vauthors=" onto the "authors=" parameter here? I assume "authors=" already dumps its entire string as a single author into the COinS metadata, so it's unlikely to make things worse. And is it possible to parse "et al." or <nowiki>"''et al.''"</nowiki> at the end of that string without needing explicit markup? I have enough experience of HTML parsing to know that this kind of "do what I mean" parsing is risky, but given the debacle of the Visual Editor rollout, we're going to have to cope with hand-writing these templates for quite a while. Explicitly marking up every author may be less prone to error, but this isn't the first time there has been pushback about this, and I think this solution might make the process of structuring references a lot less objectionable. [[User:Choess|Choess]] ([[User talk:Choess|talk]]) 02:18, 6 May 2015 (UTC)

:I haven't given the question of how would {{para|vauthors}} parsing work within [[Module:Citation/CS1]] a great deal of thought but I'm pretty sure that it could be done.  And it would produce better metadata because a requirement of {{para|vauthors}} would be that author (and editor) name lists would be required to adhere to the [[Vancouver system]].  Because {{para|authors}} does not have that kind of requirement, a wide variety of formats can be found.

:Module:Citation/CS1 already recognizes a variety of et al. forms.  It is that recognition that causes the population of {{cl|CS1 maint: Explicit use of et al.}} That same recognition strips the et al. from the author and editor lists before they are sent to metadata and causes the module to render the author and editor lists with the standardized form of et al. appended.  The cs1|2 templates' remit includes handling and placement of static text but it is necessary to have a proper and consistent mechanism to inform the template when it should render certain static text.  This is why we have {{para|display-authors|etal}}.

:When editors feel free to add non-author-name text et al. to author-name parameters, I think that they then feel free to add other non-author-name text to author-name parameters in spite of instruction to the contrary in all cs1|2 [[Template:Cite journal#COinS|documentation]].  Et al. is relatively easy to detect and compensate for; other text, not so easy; if it were, I'd have a category full of pages that have such cs1|2 template parameters.

== Et al 3 ==

Please see [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Help_desk&oldid=664154846#Problem_with_citation this thread] at the Helpdesk. The author name ''Sheetal'' is being rendered as ''She et al.'' in {{tl|citation}}. Something to do with the regex for ''et al.'', apparently. Thanks. - [[User:Sitush|Sitush]] ([[User talk:Sitush|talk]]) 18:32, 26 May 2015 (UTC)

(ec) For details, compare:

* <nowiki>{{citation |first=Sheetal |last=Ranjan |chapter=Crimes Against Women in India |editor-first=N. Prabha |editor-last=Unnithan |title=Crime and Justice in India |year=2013 |publisher=SAGE Publications |isbn=978-8-13210-977-8 |url=https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=k_6HAwAAQBAJ}}</nowiki>
* {{citation |first=Sheetal |last=Ranjan |chapter=Crimes Against Women in India |editor-first=N. Prabha |editor-last=Unnithan |title=Crime and Justice in India |year=2013 |publisher=SAGE Publications |isbn=978-8-13210-977-8 |url=https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=k_6HAwAAQBAJ}}

This is evidently caused by the over-eager regexp in the following code line:
<pre>
local pattern = ",? *'*[Ee][Tt] *[Aa][Ll][%.']*$"
</pre>

which will recognize an "et al" mark even if it has neither a space between the two words nor a word boundary before it. Could we have a "\w" check or something of the sort built in to the beginning of that regexp to avoid this?

[[User:Future Perfect at Sunrise|Fut.Perf.]] [[User talk:Future Perfect at Sunrise|☼]] 18:34, 26 May 2015 (UTC)

: Specifically, I'd recommend replacing <code>",? *"</code> with <code>"(, *| +)"</code> (i.e. either a comma plus optional space, or at least one space to separate the "et al" string from the preceding text).

== Et al 2==

In English, abbreviations are set off with a comma, e.g. like this. This applies to "et al." equally, i.e. Smith, Jones, et al. When used with two or more names, the APA style expects it, viz. http://blog.apastyle.org/apastyle/2011/11/the-proper-use-of-et-al-in-apa-style.html. Similarly for [http://grammarist.com/usage/et-al/ Grammarist]. As does [[ICMJE]]. Chicago says to use a comma unless there's only one name written in full. That's everybody except {{u|Trappist the monk}}, so I've restored my edit. Any third opinions? --[[User:RexxS|RexxS]] ([[User talk:RexxS|talk]]) 22:00, 13 May 2015 (UTC)

:When I reverted your edit, in my edit summary I wrote: {{tq|cs1{{pipe}}2 not bound by ICMJE; historically, cs1{{pipe}}2 has not used a comma before et al.}}

:I've written this before: cs1|2 are not APA, are not Chicago, are not Bluebook, are not LSA, are not ICMJE, nor are they any other style.  Certainly cs1|2 have been influenced by these styles but are not beholden to them.

:Here is a simple {{tlx|cite book/old}} using {{tlx|citation/core}}.  It has nine authors so it generates et al. in place of the ninth:
::{{cite book/old |title=Title |author1=Author1 |author2=Author2 |author3=Author3 |author4=Author4 |author5=Author5 |author6=Author6 |author7=Author7 |author8=Author8 |author9=Author9}}
:This form has been in place since {{diff|Template:Citation/core|318424614|318401946|this edit}} to {{tld|citation/core}} on 7 October 2009.  That style continues in use to the present day in [[Module:Citation/CS1]].

:In the edit summary of your revert of my revert you wrote: {{tq|not bound by your preferences either - see talk}}.  I have made no claim of personal preference with regards to a comma preceding et al.; if you can show where I have, please do so, otherwise, please do not put words into my mouth that I have not spoken.

::: One of the problems that besets Wikipedia is that it is being fossilised by editors who insist that "we have done it this way in the past" is an argument against any change. It isn't any argument at all. {{reply to | Trappist the monk}} Your revert summary made two points, neither of which provided any objective reason why it would be better to have no separator before " et al." Your argument is clearly then nothing more than your personal preference, and I make no apologies for pointing that out to you. I have provided multiple objective reasons: the use of commas before abbreviations is standard English grammar; all other style guides that I know of require a comma. I know we're not ''obliged'' to follow other style guides, but a lack of obligation to do something is poor excuse for not doing it, and I'd ask why you would not want to adopt a style that was consistent with what readers see in almost every other serious publication? --[[User:RexxS|RexxS]] ([[User talk:RexxS|talk]]) 11:58, 14 May 2015 (UTC)

* '''Support''' – The only argument presented above for not including a [[serial comma]] before "et al." is that it hasn't been since 7 October 2009 which is not a strong argument. Furthermore the removal of the comma was apparently made with no discussion. As journal style guides overwhelming support including a comma, the argument in favor is much stronger. [[User:Boghog|Boghog]] ([[User talk:Boghog|talk]]) 03:26, 14 May 2015 (UTC)
* '''Partial support''': I think that "Smith, Alan; Brown, Jane; et al." makes sense. In the standard CS1 style, I support changing to use a semicolon before "et al.", not a comma, because other authors are separated from one another by semicolons. If the separator of choice is a comma (i.e. <s>{{para|mode|cs2}}</s>{{para|name-list-format|vanc}}), then use a comma before "et al." – [[User:Jonesey95|Jonesey95]] ([[User talk:Jonesey95|talk]]) 03:39, 14 May 2015 (UTC)
*::{{para|mode}} does not change the style of separators used in the author and editor name lists:

== Let's add a collaboration parameter. ==

Large science projects will very often have ''massive'' list of authors. See for example, the [http://pdg.lbl.gov/2013/html/authors_2012.html 2012 Review of Particle Physics list of authors]. The usual way of citing these massive collaboration is typically to have "J. Smith et al. (Collaboration name)" or similar (for an Wikipedia example, see [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Quark&oldid=665076048#cite_note-PDGTetraquarks-13].) This is usually achieve with the less-than-desirable a)
<pre>
 |author1=W.-M. Yao ([[Particle Data Group]])
 |author2=...
 |display-authors=1
 |year=2012
 </pre>
which yields the broken/incorrect {{xt|W.-M. Yao ([[Particle Data Group]]) et al. (2012)}}, or sometimes with b)
<pre>
 |last1=Yao |first1=W.-M.
 |last2=... |first2=...
 |coauthors=et al. ([[Particle Data Group]])
 |year=2012
</pre>
which yields a correct {{xt|Yao, W.-M et al. ([[Particle Data Group]]) (2012)}}, and other similar hacks.

The real/best solution would to add a {{para|collaboration}} that would allow to write c)
<pre>
 |last1=Yao |first1=W.-M.
 |last2=... |first2=...
 |display-authors=1
 |collaboration=[[Particle Data Group]]
</pre>
or alternatively d)
<pre>
 |last1=Yao |first1=W.-M.
 |last2=... |first2=...

 |collaboration=Particle Data Group |collaboration-link=Particle Data Group

[[User:Shyamal|Shyamal]]: Please do not experiment in the live module.  At the beginning of your experiment a large number of articles (essentially everything that uses [[Module:Citation/CS1]]) was dumped on the job queue.  In the two minute duration of your experiment, hundreds or thousands of articles were changed to reflect the changes caused by your experiment. It may be a while before these changed articles are restored.

{{para|author}} and {{para|authors}} are free-form parameters.  Editors can and do write all kinds of name formats in them.  {{para|last}} also suffers from this but usually to a much lesser extent.  Human names being what they are, getting them right in the COinS must rely on editors getting them right in the cs1|2 templates.

Are you suggesting that the module should not duplicate the first author name in both <code>&rft.aulast=</code> and <code>&rft.au=</code>?  That can be done.  Does this apply when there is only one author?  What about when there is more than one author?

Should <code>&rft.aulast=</code> always be filled even when there is no {{para|first}} in the template?

::I do not see where I can check the COinS output from the sandbox version which was why I resorted to that foolishness. I have not evaluated all the situations but ideally Zotero import of COinS from Wikipedia articles should produce well-parsed output (whether there are issues in Zotero, I do not know). Users follow either the author= for one author and authorN= for multiple authors OR the alternative form of last= first= (single) and lastN= | firstN= (for multiple authors) - if the last+first/lastN+firstN versions both work fine with Zotero - the same should hold for the author/authorN - ideally.

:::::[Tangential question] - {{ping|Trappist the monk}} - I am unable to find any contents on LUA being handled a job to be queued - my impression was that the idea of LUA was that the code would be executed when a page is requested and that the only things that would get queued would be the caching and cluster synchronization of the code.

::::::That is not how I understand it.  I was once told that the server farm caches fully rendered copies of each article.  Each time an article is edited, the cached copy is replaced with a newly rendered version.  Change to template code takes a while to propagate to all affected pages.

:What does the red rectangle mean?  What does (first) mean?  As a guess, these mean that Zotero found <code>&rft.aulast=</code> without <code>&rft.aufirst=</code> which may or may not be an error because cs1|2 does not have a parameter for corporate authors so they are usually placed in {{para|last}} or {{para|author}}.

:Perhaps an experiment is in order.  I have hacked [[Module:Citation/CS1/sandbox]] so that <code>&rft.aufirst=</code> and <code>&rft.aulast=</code> are only filled when the first author is listed in the cs1|2 template with {{para|first}} and {{para|last}}.

There are twenty-three cs1|2 templates and their sandboxes that will need to be touched, this module (which will require tweaking so we don't break links to its submodules and sandboxes – which should also move if the main module moves), a deal of documentation, and perhaps other stuff that I haven't thought of that must at least be looked at.

== Recent change ==

{{ping|Trappist the monk}} I think the recent change you've made here seems to have changed cite news so that page numbers are simply given as a number, so that for example a citation will now read "14 December 1912. 3. Retrieved 26 August 2015." instead of the old "14 December 1912. '''p.''' 3. Retrieved 26 August 2015." (bolding mine). At least I think it was the edit you made here that changed this, but templates/modules at this level of intricacy are beyond my pay-grade. If it is here, can this please be reversed? Example using cite news template:

:{{cite news|title=Obituary|url=http://trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/73480630|accessdate=26 August 2015|work=Footscray Independent|date=14 December 1912|page=3}}

:Fixed.  The function <code>is_valid_parameter_value()</code> is used to test the state of meta-parameter <code>NoPP</code>.  If set to <code>yes</code>, <code>true</code>, or <code>y</code> then set the prefix meta-parameters <code>PPrefix</code> and <code>PPPrefix</code> to empty strings.  But, <code>is_valid_parameter_value()</code> also considers {{para|nopp}} (empty or not present) to be a valid parameter value so the subsequent code dutifully set <code>PPrefix</code> and <code>PPPrefix</code> to empty strings.  In all other uses of the function, the meta-parameter that is tested is the same meta-parameter that is set to an empty string when it does not have an acceptable value.

== False error message on cite encyclopedia ==

There is a template called {{tl|cite DNBIE}} that has been minding its own business for some years. It is a wrapper around {{tl|cite encyclopedia}} until fairly recently it has not had any problems. However now it is reporting an error message in red:
*{{cite DNBIE}}

The reason for this has nothing to do with the title line, but is because the encyclopedia parameter is:
* <code><nowiki>| encyclopedia  =[[Dictionary of National Biography]] [http://www.archive.org/stream/dictionaryofnati00leesuoft#page/n2/mode/1up Index and Epitome]</nowiki></code>
*| encyclopedia  =[[Dictionary of National Biography]] [http://www.archive.org/stream/dictionaryofnati00leesuoft#page/n2/mode/1up Index and Epitome]

{{tlx|cite encyclopedia}} is an odd duck.  If there is no {{para|title}} then {{para|encyclopedia}}, if set, is promoted to {{para|title}} (this is why there is no missing title error message).  It does this for the metadata.  So the error message was correct in a sense.  I'll see about improving that.

Why does {{tlx|cite DNBIE}} not use {{para|title}}?

—[[User:Trappist the monk|Trappist the monk]] ([[User talk:Trappist the monk|talk]]) 00:10, 27 September 2015 (UTC)

:{{para|title}} is an optional parameter, which is usually set. I have not given it a value in this example so that it is clear that the problem lies in the handling of {{para|encyclopedia}}.
:But even if title is set it will not affect the outcome according to the documentation (as {{para|title}} gets mapped to {{para|article}} in the case of {{tlx|cite encyclopedia}}) so the alleged problem and the fault in the error message will remain the same. -- [[User:PBS|PBS]] ([[User talk:PBS|talk]]) 01:19, 27 September 2015 (UTC)

Here's a hack of {{tlx|cite encyclopedia}} that links to a wikisource article, links to the Internet archive image of the book, and links to the DNB article in wikipedia:
:<code><nowiki>{{cite encyclopedia

 | editor-last = Lee

 | article = [[s:Phayre, Robert (DNB00)|Phayre, Robert (DNB00)]]

 |encyclopedia=[[Dictionary of National Biography]] 
 |url=http://www.archive.org/stream/dictionaryofnati00leesuoft#page/n2/mode/1up

which produces this; no errors and cleaner metadata:

::::@I a aware that such a change can be made but in doing this you are altering the title which is "Dictionary of National Biography Index and Epitome" (hence the format in the template).

Excuse me if this is the wrong forum, but I am trying to update the Haitian Creole Wikipedia’s [[ht:Module:Citation/CS1|version of this file]] and [[ht:Special:Diff/689481|WhatamIdoing mentioned]] that {{u|Trappist the monk}} would probably be able to figure this out. When I copy from here and paste to there, then preview what that update would do, I keep seeing the same error appear where I would expect to see well‑formed citations. It says there is a Lua error in [[ht:Module:Citation/CS1|Module:Citation/CS1]] on line 2968 (a line that doesn’t exist, before ''or'' after the potential update): “<code>attempt to call field 'set_selected_modules' (a nil value)</code>”.

:If you need more help, shout.

:And yes, line 2968 does exist in the English version of Module:Citation/CS1.  The error message occurred because [[ht:Module:Citation/CS1/Date validation]] does not have the required function set_selected_modules().

I’m using this Module on the Haitian Creole Wikipedia and in swapping out the English month names for those in ''Kreyòl'', I have a problem.

:In function <code>get_month_number ()</code>?  Do as you have done for the other months.  <code>long_months</code> is a table of <code>key</code>/<code>value</code> pairs where each unique spelling of a month name is a key.  For example if you wanted capitalized and uncapitalized month names you could write:
::<code>local long_months = {['janvye']=1, ['Janvye']=1, ['fevriye']=2, ['Fevriye']=2, ...};</code>
:I can see that you are going to have problems with <code>oktòb</code> because it contains a unicode character.  Because unicode characters don't appear in English months the code is not setup to handle them.  I'll tweak that for you.
