AMA newspaper article citing

newspaper references show up without the entire date. it only shows the year. Is there a way the whole year could be displayed? did try the csl for ama but do not see a guide to making changes in the year display. kindly assist.
  • how are they supposed to look? - I don't think newspaper articles are coded into AMA, it's rare enough that it likely hasn't come up before.
  • AMA style for Newspaper Article:

    Found in Print: Dillon S. Education standards likely to see toughening. New York Times. April 14, 2009.

    If the newspaper was accessed through the online version of the newspaper, the information is the same as the print except you add the URL and include the published, updated, and accessed dates.

    Hope this is helpful. In most medical journals the AMA is still the preferred submission style. Hope you can make this happen.
  • Sorry I missed including the page number on the earlier post. Hope this is helpful and you can make it happen. thank you!

  • this is now up. I didn't put a space between colon and page number - online style guides didn't completely agree, but most didn't have it there.
  • thank you Adam. I just tried using it but it still gives the year only. it is not giving the whole date, month, day and year. Is there a way this can happen?
  • did you re-install from the repository?
  • thanks a lot Adam. It is working fine now, I had not re-installed the revised style. thank you.
