Style request: [Free Radical Biology and Medicine]

Hi,

I'm trying desperately to edit a style for this revue but there is always something I cannot configure properly.

The journal is available here :
http://www.journals.elsevier.com/free-radical-biology-and-medicine/

I analysed the citation styles in recent articles with the tool avilable here: http://steveridout.com/csl/searchByExample/

• JOURNAL-ARTICLE

Inline citation
[1]

bibliography
[1] Watson, J. D.; Crick, F. H. C. Molecular structure of nucleic acids; a structure for deoxyribose nucleic acid. Nature. 171:737–738; 1953.

==> first result for journal articles :
Journal of Superconductivity and Novel Magnetism
==> Differences :
- [1] number in square brackets in bibliography too
- J. D. a space between each first letter of the first name
- ; between authors instead of a comma
- F. H. C. Molecular no : after authors list
- Nature name of journal in italic (abbreviated!)
- 171:737-738; 1953. Instead of 171, 737–738 (1953)
- Journal titles are to be abbreviated according to the List of Journals Indexed in Index Medicus published by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services


• CHAPTER

Inline citation
[1]

Bibliography
[1] Mares, I. Firms and the Welfare State: When, Why, and How Does Social Policy Matter to Employers? In: Hall, P. A., Soskice, P., editors. Varieties of Capitalism. The Institutional Foundations of Comparative Advantage. New York: Oxford University Press; 2001. p. 184–213.

==> first result for chapter :
European Respiratory Journal
==> Differences :
- [1] number in square brackets in bibliography too
- , a comma after family names of authors and editors
- P.A. each first name is separated with a point
- Advantage. There is a point after the container-title
- editors with an s (not the case with the current European RJ CSL)


• BOOK

Inline citation
[1]

bibliography
[1] Hancké, B.; Rhodes, M.; Thatcher, M., editors. Beyond varieties of capitalism: conflict, contradiction, and complementarities in the European economy. Oxford and New York: Oxford University Press; 2007.

==> Differences :
- , a comma after family names of authors and editors
- P. A. each first name is separated with a point and a space
- Hancké, B.; ; between authors instead of a comma
- Advantage. There is a point after the container-title

  • Hi,

    I just noticed there is a few errors in this style.

    bibliography
    ==> number under brackets
    ==> a comma after the family name of authors

    I changed the code and it works.
    Who should I send it to to update the style ?

    There may be other details I didn't notice/change (for example, they want "eds" after book author names).

    If you submit corrections or additions to the style in the future, please always work with the most recent copy from the style repository, as we frequently adjust the formatting of styles slightly.
