Style Error: Chicago Manual of Style Author-Date

The style for a video recording has an error. Here is an example of what it currently produces:

Ferguson, Niall. 2009. The Ascent of MoneySwf file. New York: Chimerica Media Limited. http://www.pbs.org/wnet/ascentofmoney/.

And here is an example of what it should produce:

Ferguson, Niall. 2009. The Ascent of Money. Swf file. New York: Chimerica Media Limited. http://www.pbs.org/wnet/ascentofmoney/.

The title needs to be followed by a period and space.
  • I can confirm that.
    The problem is the macro "description", which seems to be wrong - as far as I can see there is an easy fix, but I'd have to know how exactly an interview should be cited (that's the other type that relies heavily on that type) - anyone able to provide that information (or dig it up) and I'd be happy to make the necessary changes.
  • this is now fixed on the trac--not sure when it's supposed to show up on the styles page (i added another condition because of the way interviews have to be cited when the interviewer's name is not given).
