Description

Several translators populate the pages field with the total number of pages in a book, which is potentially useful for research, but should always be skipped when creating citations.

I suppose we could do this for legacy items on 1.0.*, but note that the real fix is #786.

comment:2 Changed 8 years ago by simon

  • Component changed from styles to export
  • Summary changed from ignore "pages" field on book items in APA CSL to ignore "pages" field on book items in CSL parser

This should be corrected in the CSL parser, instead of the APA CSL, since it applies to all citation styles.

  • Resolution set to wontfix
  • Status changed from new to closed

With #786, this is no longer desirable. If existing translators continue to populate the pages field improperly, we should fix this separately.
