Bibliographic List Item: Manage Labels for unknown Fields

1 Initial Problem

The "Bibliographic List Item" in ILIAS currently supports the file-types: BibTex (https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/BibTeX) and Ris (https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/RIS_(Dateiformat) ). Both file-types lack af a clear definition, wich fields can exist in the file. Therefore it is not possible to have correct translations for all possible fields, since the list is undeficed. Currently those fields are labeled with the original laben (such as "U2"..)

2 Conceptual Summary

In the Administration an new Subtab is implemented (also see Bibliographic List Item: Sorting of Fields in Detail-View). Every non-standard-field can be translated for all activated languages. If a field is not explicitely available in the users language, first an existing tranlation in the systems language is used, last the old original labels is used.

7 Discussion

AT 2017-11-15: Please do not re-label the Settings-tab without stating this. 
Please give your reasoning for the ordering of the tabs. Why is the Fields-tab more important than the Settings/Libraries tab and should become the actual landing tab?

JourFixe, ILIAS [jourfixe], 20 NOV 2017: We highly appreciate this suggestion and schedule it for 5.4. Please re-use the multilingual editing form as suggested by Matthias (unless you have a conceptual or technical problem with this solution. If so, please come back to the JF with an alternative suggestion). We like the renaming of the Label "Settings" to "Libraries" in the Administration. Ordering of tabs is fine for us.

8 Implementation

The feature was implemented as described in the feature wiki entry. To add a new translation for a field you have to do the following steps:

1. Click the action button on the field for which you would like to add a translation.
2. Click "Translate"
3. Click the Button "Add Languages".
4. In the input "Additional Languages" choose the language.
5. Click Save
6. Write a translation and optionally a description

Please note that there are no Actions "Delete" and "Edit" in the Actions-menu since these are not needed/don't make sense.
