Hi!

If you have time I would like to get two updates for the style file.

1. item type: "Book section"
The "In:" and "I:" (Eng/Swe) doesn't appear in the reference as it should. (After Book section Title, called "Chapter title" on the web page that describes the syntax https://www.slu.se/en/subweb/library/write-and-cite/writing-references/reference-list-using-harvard/)

2. Item type Software
Should follow the syntax:
Source (Year). Title of software (version) [Software]. Link [Date]
It doesn't follow it right now.

The style is described on: https://www.slu.se/en/subweb/library/write-and-cite/writing-references/reference-list-using-harvard/.

Have a great summer!

Librarian at SLU University library (that supports the style).

    Hi,

    1. chapters

    this seems to work just fine for me.
    Guidelines:
    Schwarz, W. (2018). Semantic possibility. In: Ball, Derek & Rabern, Bran (eds) The Science of Meaning: Essays on the Metatheory of Natural Language Semantics. Oxford: Oxford Scholarship. 361-380. 10.1093/oso780198739548.001.0001

    CSL:
    Mares, I. (2001). Firms and the welfare state: When, why, and how does social policy matter to employers? In: Hall, P.A. & Soskice, D. (eds.) Varieties of capitalism. The institutional foundations of comparative advantage. New York: Oxford University Press, 184–213

    (also, note that the editors are shown in an inconsistent way in the Schwarz and the Ellingson examples in your .pdfs; please clarify what you want and we can make the edits)

    2. WIP...

    Thanks for the observation that the editors are shown in a inconsistent way!
    It should be as in the guideline: (ed.) if one editor and (eds) if more than one.

    When it comes to In: we would like it to be a suffix to the Book section title, right now it doesn't appear if the editors field is empty.

    Editor names:
    No, have a look again. The order of the names is wrong for one.
    Ball, Derek & Rabern, Bran (eds)
    vs
    Ian Warrington (eds)


    1. I've reworked how chapters are rendered and it should work now for cases where there is no editors.

    2. I have implemented something. Please test.

    1. Now I see that the names presented in different ways, thank you! It should not be as presented in the guidelines on the webb, I will ask my colleages to edit it on the webb as soon as they return from vacation.

    The correct order, that aligns with the rest of the style is:

    Ball, D. & Rabern, B. (eds)
    Warrington, I. (ed.)

    2. Software doesn't show info about version. I Would like it to be like:

    Source (Year). Title of software (Version). Prog.language, Place: Company. URL [Date]

    @damnation -- note that of 6.10 we have Zotero mapping Software to CSL software -- please use that if you aren't already. I'll shortly update the mapping tables.

    Yeah, I was actually using software (CSL) and couldn't get it to show up. Until I noticed that software was still mapped to book with the old version.

    @malpers1
    See here that this is working: software-aca-suecia

    Sample output:
    R Core Team (2019). R: A language and environment for statistical computing (3.6.1) [Desktop app]. Python, Vienna: R Foundation for Statistical Computing. https://www.r-project.org/ [2021-12-24]

    @damnation It looks good on the webpage you linked to, the sample output looks good!

    I'll go on vacation now and won't be back until mid August, you can either update the style now without me checking it again or wait until I am back.
