Question: Single and Two field authors
Greetings,
I am getting weird behavior with the Word plugin and APA 6th style. I have a reference that exists with multiple two field authors (last, first names). There is also a single field author (National Society of etc.). When I insert the citation into Word, unexpected behavior occurs. The citation fails to utilize 'et al.' properly and lists full author names for all 4 authors. This is not good, but the consequences break every citation after the problematic one. In essence this bug breaks the usage of 'et al,' for the entire document past a certain point. I am guessing that Zotero parses from start to finish and has encountered some random bug that breaks the parser because of the mixed authors format. Any thoughts or suggestions?
Thanks,
Pancoast
