[style issue] how to create a completely new style
Hi,
I would like to submit a paper to a French journal but they request a referencing style that I fail to find anywhere (even in the 'add other styles' section).
Is there a way to create a style from scratch? That would be very useful.
it's a style with only footnotes (no bibliography), in the following aspect:
Book: Surname, initials, title of the book (in italics), place of publication, publisher, the exact pages cited
Exemple: Silverstein K., Private warriors, London, Verso, 2000, p. 172
For the footnotes, use the Cultures & Conflits style.
Edited books: Surname, initials, title of the article in quotation makes, pages numbers of the article, ‘in’ in non-italic script, name of the editor of the book followed by ‘(ed.)’, title of the book in italics, place of publication, publisher, the exact pages cited
Example : Waever O., “Securitisation and Desecuritisation”, in Lipschutz R. (ed.), On Security, New York, Columbia University Press, 1995, pp. 47-86.
Journal articles: Surname, initials, title of the article in quotation marks, title of the journal (in italics), volume/number of the journal, month and year of the issue, the exact pages cited
Example : Coker C., “Outsourcing war”, Cambridge Review of International Studies, vol. 12, n°1, Autumn-Winter 1999, pp. 109 (translation by the author).
