Using the bookmarklet, I tried to import the article at http://journals.cambridge.org/action/displayAbstract?fromPage=online&aid=402142

This appeared to work (http://www.citeulike.org/user/rjw62/article/2963545), but on closer inspection some of the details were incorrect. In particular the imported year was 2006 (rather than 1985) and the imported issue number was -1 (when there shouldn't be an issue number at all). Note that the year has probably been taken from the "published online" date. This isn't appropriate to use in this case, since that records the date the archive was opened rather than the original publication date of the article. The issues number of "-1" seems to be used as a special placeholder value when each volume of a journal is published as a single issue.

The imported Journal name is also incorrect. It Should be "Journal of Fluid Mechanics", rather than "Journal of Fluid Mechanics Digital Archive". This is probably a special case that would need to be programmed manually: JFM Online is split into two 'journals' in the CUP system: The "Digital Archive" is for older pre-1997 issues, the properly titles one contains newer articles.

There's not much we can do about this - we use the RIS export from the CUP site. These are the details we get:

     TY  - JOUR

     AU  - Pedley,T. J.
     PY  - 2006/Apr/20
     TI  - A separated-flow model for collapsible-tube oscillations

I can certainly get the import to discard issue numbers which are less than zero.
