What does e.d. mean in the end of a citation

geirholmarsson · July 15, 2013

I am getting e.d. in the end of some mine citation.

(„Edward L. Thorndike (1874–1949) - The Man and His Career, A Psychology for Educators, Education as Specific Habit Formation“, e.d.)

and

(„Franklin Bobbitt (1876–1956) - Social Efficiency Movement, Bobbitt’s Contribution“, e.d.)

Does anyone know what e.d. stands for?
I am writing mine Master and I am worried I might be doing something wrong that will hurt me later.

Which citation style are you using? My guess is that it's the abbreviation for "no date" (in a non-English language) for an author-date citation.

Could it be Icelandic?

You can fix this by adding a date to the item's metadata.

Hi Rintze, you are probably right.

Yes it is in Icelandic and no date in Icelandic is engin dagur.

I was always looking for English words or Latin words beginning of e and d. I am using Icelandic version of APA, I am not sure what version but it is the only one available.

Thank you for your help.

The APA style that ships with Zotero (https://github.com/citation-style-language/styles/blob/master/apa.csl) automatically localizes, and Icelandic translations come from https://github.com/citation-style-language/locales/blob/master/locales-is-IS.xml.
