BOW variant

On Ash-browed spinetail, we are getting an "author2=" error. - UtherSRG (talk) 20:31, 17 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

The citation parsing couldn't handle the "Jr." in "Remsen, Jr., J. V." as it introduced an additional comma, which meant the second author had initials ("J. V.") but no last name. Now handled for Jr. but may need others.
I also noticed that the citation parsing wasn't handling "J. del Hoyo" or "E. de Juana" properly, handling "del" and "de" as part of the first name. I've fixed this for authors and editors.  —  Jts1882 | talk  07:53, 18 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

@Jts1882: I'm getting Error: unrecognised source on Cebu bulbul. - UtherSRG (talk) 11:30, 26 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

The {{cite taxon}} sources are case sensitive. I've added aliases for some sources, but really should make them case insensitive. There is also a {{cite BOW}} template.  —  Jts1882 | talk  12:28, 26 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
Ah! My bad. I should have checked that aspect. - UtherSRG (talk) 12:40, 26 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
