Possible to create an individual term?

Hey,
in my style I want to insert the term "o. O." (short for "ohne Ort", German for "no place") into the bibliography if the "publisher-place" field is empty. I couldn't find a suitable term in the term-list of csl though. Is it possible to define a new term within the "locale" tag? That way it could easily be changed if the style is translated.. Otherwise I would write "o. O." as a text tag directly in the corresponding macro, even if its a bit sloppy.
Any thoughts?
  • you can't define custom terms currently (we're still debating whether that's a good idea). We should probably add a no-place term. MLA uses that, too.

    In the meantime, just use <text value="o.&#160;O."/> We recommend using &#160; instead of the normal space because in German typography, short abbreviations should use a non-breaking space.
  • okay, that works. Thank you!
