CiteThis! Update 0.17

I modified CiteThis! with the following features this weekend:

  • Added a citation list box, where you can queue all your citations.
  • Removed the custom citation box from the preferences pane (it was not of use anymore)
  • Fixed APA citation format to include last accessed date.
  • Added some handling of author/titles:
    • If title includes the host name of the site such as “news blah blah – CNN”, then the host name will be removed from the title.
    • If the author ends with any special characters, they will be removed
    • If author contains AP, or Associated Press, that will be stripped.
  • Author determination:
    • Added handling of some common author classes, like when an element has a class called “byline” or “author”
  • Site-specific handling
    • Added handling of some more sites: ABCNews, Fox, CNet, Yahoo News
