Style error (?): harvard-university-of-worcester.csl

This style has

  <macro name="director">
    <text term="director" prefix=":"/>
    <names variable="director"/>
  </macro>

and

  <macro name="translator">
    <text term="translator" form="short" plural="true" text-case="capitalize-first" suffix="."/>
    <names variable="translator" prefix=" " suffix="."/>
  </macro>

Zotero/citeproc-js/LO does not render the <text …> elements, pandoc(-citeproc) does, so ":directors Trans." appears in every bibliography entry.

Wouldn't the macros need to test first for variables being non-empty in such cases? EDIT: … or use a group which implicitly tests for variables being non-empty?

If so, this style should be fixed.

yes, this is a bug. Proper way to do this is to us cs:label within cs:names
