Please help to recognise the style

Mishkafofer
What kind of style is this? Thanks for the help.

    how do citations look in the text?
    This is not a common style, having the date in the back like that is unusual.
  • Mishkafofer
    Professor demands this style, apparently APA 6 is not good enough.
    He wrote this example in a doc file that he sent to students with his exact orders.

    Here is the second example but now for a journal article:

    Segal, D. R., "Leadership and Management: Organization Theory", in Buck, J. H. and Korb, L. J. (Eds.), Military Leadership. Beverly Hills: Sage, 1981: 41-69

    Sorry, I don't think I have seen this before. Also, I still don't understand how this is going to be cited in the text - presumably this is not an author-date style.
    (I gotta say, it's also a bit rich of a professor to demand his/her own citation style and than have errors in the examples - in the second example, the comma would need to be inside the quotation marks).
  • Mishkafofer
    I agree, demanding ad-hoc citation styles is annoying.
    Whats the closest style to his demand? I will do manual tweaking to get close as possible.
  • adamsmith
    again, depends on what's required in the text - you could have a look at the Wheaton PhD style.
  • Mishkafofer
    I need a style in Zotero.
  • adamsmith
    I don't understand what that refers to. Wheaton PhD is in Zotero.
  • adamsmith
    Wheaton College PhD BITH is the full title.
  • Mishkafofer
    I meant a recommendation that i can use in Zotero.
  • adamsmith
    as I say - the style is on the repository. I don't quite get how you're going to pick a citaiton style if you don't know how in-text citations should look (or if you do, why you're not telling me).
  • Mishkafofer
    In text citation should look like this:
    (Einstein 2002)
  • adamsmith
    ok - then there's definitely nothing resembling this on the repository. There is no author-date style that' doesn't start with author and date in the bibliography. (for good reason there isn't!).

    Pick any author date style (Harvard? APSA?) - and move around the date in the bibliography.
  • Mishkafofer
    I found that "Modern Humanities Research" citation style came pretty close, with a bit manual tweaking, i am there.
