I'm having an issue with using citations in a biblatatex json library that contain negative dates. For example: Aristotle's Poetics was written about 335 BC. I'm using Zotero and Better Bibtex, which exports these BC/BCE dates as negative numbers. But when attempting to load the resulting json library, pandoc gives the following error: What must I do to have pandoc use negative dates from a biblatex json library? |

Can you upload an example of one of the JSON bibliography records that gives the problem? |

That doesn't seem to affect pandoc. While it may be a mistake in the JSON, every entry (538 of them) have the year in quotation marks, and it works just fine. The offending portion of the entry is this: If this is removed, there is no error. With this entry, I receive the reported error. |

But, it should be noted that the quotes are not placed by me in Zotero, so it's not something that I can fix. Rather the quotes are automatically placed by Better Bibtex when it creates the json library. |

I'm fixing citeproc so that these dates are handled. |
