Dr. Or M. BialikMy fellow <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/scientists" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#scientists</a>, I'd just like to remind you that the Cherechter Map (or Gucharmap, or KCharSelect, depending on your OS), exists. You do not have to add an equation every time you want to use a Greek letter, or a bunch of other <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/logograph" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#logograph</a> you might seek that is part of the ASCII code.<a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/Academic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Academic</a> <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/AcademicWriting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#AcademicWriting</a> <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/AcademicChatter" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#AcademicChatter</a>

Peter ChristensenI feel the need to add, as a follow-up to my previous posts, that I do value academia. Exploring the deepest depths of a remote corner of knowledge is an endeavour for which I have the utmost respect and admiration, though personally, I prefer to skim the surface of many different topics.I also understand that there are some outstanding academic writers out there. I see you! Alas, I never get to translate you. 😂<a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/xl8" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#xl8</a> <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/translation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#translation</a> <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/translationfreelancer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#translationfreelancer</a> <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/academicwriting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#academicwriting</a> <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/academia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#academia</a>

Peter ChristensenIt's been a long time since I've translated an academic paper. I'd forgotten how much academics like to pad and obfuscate. So much of my translation work in recent years has been for museums, where the goal is concise, clear, easy-to-read copy—the polar opposite of most academic writing, come to think of it. Dear client, this translation is likely to make your paper readable. My apologies! 😳😬🙄<a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/xl8" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#xl8</a> <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/translation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#translation</a> <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/Translationfreelancer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Translationfreelancer</a> <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/academicwriting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#academicwriting</a>

David LohnerDear <a href="https://higher-edu.social/tags/academia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#academia</a>, is there an overview on <a href="https://higher-edu.social/tags/Zotero" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Zotero</a> <a href="https://higher-edu.social/tags/citation_styles" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#citation_styles</a> that allow pulling the "last edited" date into a list of references? That'd be great for citing web pages. I see "Advances in Space Research" doing that: <a href="https://www.zotero.org/styles?q=id%3Aadvances-in-space-research" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.zotero.org/styles?q=id%3Aadvances-in-space-research</a>Now I'm looking for something similar, preferably available in German since we format our dates DD.MM.YYYY (yeah, that’s crazy).<a href="https://higher-edu.social/tags/academicWriting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#academicWriting</a> <a href="https://higher-edu.social/tags/academicchatter" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#academicchatter</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/@zotero" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@zotero</a>

Bjørn SætrevikI just got a first round <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/PeerReview" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#PeerReview</a> where <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/Reviewer2" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Reviewer2</a> just wrote "I did not find anything to comment on and congratulate the authors on a well written manuscript." That's gotta be a first.

Lanie Molinar CarmeloHoping those familiar with <a href="https://allovertheplace.ca/tags/LaTeX" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#LaTeX</a> can give me some advice here. I've started using it to create my assignments for school. I'm not writing technical papers yet, but I find using LaTeX with <a href="https://allovertheplace.ca/tags/Zotero" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Zotero</a> in <a href="https://allovertheplace.ca/tags/VSCode" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#VSCode</a> more <a href="https://allovertheplace.ca/tags/accessible" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#accessible</a> with a <a href="https://allovertheplace.ca/tags/ScreenReader" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ScreenReader</a> than most other setups I've tried. Since my discussion posts have to follow <a href="https://allovertheplace.ca/tags/APA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#APA</a> style, I’m using LaTeX for those as well as full papers. That part is going well—but I’m running into trouble when I need to actually post what I’ve written. My school uses Brightspace, which allows discussion posts in either rich text or <a href="https://allovertheplace.ca/tags/HTML" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#HTML</a>. I have <a href="https://allovertheplace.ca/tags/Pandoc" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Pandoc</a> installed, so I tried converting my LaTeX source to HTML and pasting the code. But Pandoc didn’t include my references section in the output. I also tried copying from the PDF, but that stripped all formatting. Does anyone know how I can get a clean HTML version of my work—with references included—that I can paste into Brightspace? Here’s the command I’ve been using: pandoc main.tex \ --bibliography=references. Bib \ --csl=apa.csl \ --standalone \ -o main.html It creates the HTML file, but the references section is missing.
