Librosa: BibTeX entry on Zenodo has some non-standard author names

Created on 7 Aug 2018  路  4Comments  路  Source: librosa/librosa

Description

I'm citing librosa 0.6.1 in a paper today and use the BibTeX file automatically generated by Zenodo. Frustratingly, it is not a "plug and play" experience: some authors do not follow a "Firstname (Middlename) Lastname" template. I would prefer if they did.
After talking with @bmcfee, he told me that:
Seth is Seth Kranzler
Erik is Erik Peterson
JackieWu is Jackie Wu

Other manual change that were necessary were for authors with non-ASCII characters in their name:
Carl Thom茅, Fabian-Robert St枚ter, Jo茫o Felipe Santos.

I imagine that this is largely an upstream issue to Zenodo, and possibly a wontfix, but is there any way we can hack into our database of past contributors and make the relevant changes before it gets scraped by Zenodo?

Even if this is not the case, the issue is worth raising, if only because it gives me an opportunity to share the expected BibTeX entry, with manual fixes applied (see below), for everyone to use.

I imagine that this is largely an upstream issue to Zenodo, and possibly a wontfix, but is there any way we can hack into our database of past contributors and make the relevant changes before it gets scraped by Zenodo?

That's a good question. I suspect there's not much we can do, since Zenodo scrapes this info directly from the contributors' github profiles, but I'll ask around.

Somewhat related: in the last commit of v0.6.2, @bmcfee updated the list of authors in AUTHORS.md

https://github.com/librosa/librosa/commit/a4c98ca35a9eb34a2c4bda2ca6bfb2b0f75b8be4

This list is ASCII, and therefore
"Carl Thom茅" has become "Carl Thome"
while
"Fabian Robert-St枚ter" has become "Fabian Robert-Stoeter".

Tagging @nehz: Hi! could you please share your full name publicly so that we can acknowledge your contribution to librosa (PR #727) in the list of authors?

@lostanlen Sure, it is "Zhen Wang"

@nehz Thanks. We put your full name in AUTHORS.md after this commit: https://github.com/librosa/librosa/commit/9e59626ee8907739ec6cd4cab53d1d7697c837d4
