Details on version and operating system

No response

Checked with the latest development build (copy version output from About dialog)

• I made a backup of my libraries before testing the latest development version.
• I have tested the latest development version and the problem persists

Steps to reproduce the behaviour

There are many journal abbreviation errors in the built-in list of abbreviations. Some examples:

• Discrete and Computational Geometry
• Differentiial Geometry and Topoloyg, Discrete and Computational Geometry
• Stochastic Analysis in Discrete and Continuous Settings

There seems to be a ton of journals which get mapped to "Lect. Notes. Comput. Sci."

I have transfered the issue to the corresponding repo.

Just for reference, I got a relatively accurate list of journal abbreviations by modifying the python script that merges the csv:

https://github.com/northword/zotero-format-metadata/blob/98ec494de52c16b4627adfd1c5bdb8e2a538f6d9/src/data/journal-abbr/generate-journal-list-dot.py#L31-L70

Until the checks such as #149 are finally implemented, I thought it might be possible to alleviate the problem with this script first?

@northword I like the idea, I think this is a good first step. It would be great if you could tackle this here as well
