    Hi,

    I'm trying to edit the "Society for Biblical Literature" style (based on chicago) for the rules that my theological college uses.

    For citations after the first citation (which is a fullnote) subsequent citations are simply "author, page(s)" (without the quotes!), unless the author has multiple entries in the bibliography in which case it is "author, title, page(s)".

    I've seen in the documentation entries like disambiguate-add-names, but I was wondering if there was a way to to disambiguate with the "title" in the <citation> part of the csl file.

    I don't think such an option exists. According to SBL style guide subsequent citations should always include short title: http://www.sbl-site.org/assets/pdfs/SBLHS.pdf

    Thanks eraz, unfortunately my college's style guide breaks with the SBL style guide at a number of points.

    I'm sure that it'll be okay if I use the published SBL style, I was just hoping that this style of disambiguation was able to be specified.

    Is there a way in the CSL specification to describe and implement this citation format?

    You may want to suggest adding this feature on the CSL development list:
    http://sourceforge.net/mail/?group_id=117435

    To view existing CSL specifications you can download svn:

    Looks like there is a <disambiguate-add-title> feature already in existence (or at least being talked about on the mailing list).

    http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_name=88EED1B0-E355-42AF-B6B4-8A560D7B9B23%40simonster.com<citation>

    Anyway, I'll keep playing with this - it's great to having something that is so close to what I need.

    Okay, it's not in CSL schema but it is in Zotero, so if you add it it should work already.
