Style Request: Bioscene

dinanewman
I need to format my citations for the journal Bioscene, ISSN: 1539-2422. Link to online documentation: http://www.acube.org/bioscene/submission-guidelines/

Examples of the style:

CAMPBELL, J.L. AND O.K. PEDERSON. 2007. The varieties of capitalism and hybrid success. Comparative Political Studies 40(3):307-332.

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

    I couldn't figure out how to italicize in this text box, so in the examples above, the title of the journal or book should be italicized. Thanks!

    I see one problem in submission guidelines:

    GREEN, H., GOLDBERG, B., SHWARTZ, M., AND D. BROWN. 1968. The synthesis of collagen during the development of Xenopus laevis. Dev. Biol. 18: 391-400.

    Only last name has different sort order, but the current specification of CSL allows specify "name-as-sort-order" only for the first author or for all names. I do not know yet, if this is possible to solve in current CSL.

    Looks like we need an "all-except-last"/"all-but-last" option. I think the format is rare, but coincidentally I learned last month that the African Journal of Food, Agriculture, Nutrition and Development uses the same format (http://www.ajfand.net/AJFAND/informationtoauthors.html):

    1. Gardner MN, Halweil AO, Lincoln NN, Guba EG, Parry J and JM Nono Introduction to Ophthalmology. Oxford University Press, Oxford. 1989: 188-194.
    2. Spencer N Poverty and Child Health in Less Developed Countries. In: Odoro JM and EM Kimani (Eds). Poverty and Child Health. Oxford, UK and New York, NY: Radcliffe Press, 1996: 74-94.

    @Rintze: I agree. Is somewhere a TO-DO list for extend the specification of CSL? Maybe github.com/citation-style-language/schema issue?
