Some minor issues with the style for Basic and Applied Ecology
Thank very much for creating a style for BAAE.
I found some minor things.
1) Volume should be in italic
2) In "in-text citations" I get authors initials if the same last name occurs in same citation. I thought "disambiguate- add-givenname" would fix this.
3) Multiple citations should be sorted alphabetically (hard to find info about this but that's how the articles in the latest issue have done it.)
4) For chapter in edited books the period (.) should should be after (pp. PAGES) instead of after the book title
5) It should be option name="et-al-use-first" value="6" and also 6 instead of 5 in the bibliography
I think that it is. Thank you very much once again

- Volume should be in italic

Fixed.- It should be option name="et-al-use-first" value="6" and also 6 instead of 5 in the bibliography
I did this, but it isn't clear from the text of the style you used in the other thread that ("the sixth and subsequent authors are abbreviated as “et al.”). No way for me to check what is in the style (I can't download the PDF) or what is in use. Let me know if I need to change it back. May be a Zotero bug, but I haven't looked into it & there is only one other real style that also sets it to false right now. I didn't do anything about this. Please point to what the style manual says or example citations. This information seems useful for web-only references & there is a zotero option as to whether or not to include this in journal articles [1,2]I found out that disambiguate- add-givennames fixes this (instead of givenname.)
The manual doesn't say anything about web references. However journal articles should not a "retrieved from" I got on one journal article that lacks Volume and issue (since it's in press) However I did not get it on another journal article that also lacks this information.
It would be cool if "in press, DOI: doinumber" could be added at the end in case volume and pages are lacking. Is this doable?
Thanks
Johan
Do you have examples of articles that lack page numbers & have a URI/DOI from the journal?
Re. "in press," I also see this as a bigger issue than one particular style. There are threads here on the topic, with work arounds & suggested features for Zotero.
However, that article also seemed to be wrong about another thing. There is no informartion about et al abbreviation in the bibliography. Even one of the examples has 8 authors in the bibliography
I am sorry for all the trouble
