Journal of Linguistics uses the Unified Stylesheet for Linguistic journals, with two amendments:

The style is that of the Unified Style Sheet for Linguistics Journals (at http://celxj.org/downloads/USS-NoComments.pdf) with two main exceptions: (i) all page numbers are preceded by a comma – i.e. there is a comma rather than a full-stop after journal/proceedings volume number and page numbers, and (ii) dissertation entries specify the university after a comma but do not list ‘place of publication’.

Here's the required info for making this style:

Campbell, John L. & Ove K. Pedersen. 2007. The varieties of capitalism and hybrid success. Comparative Political Studies 40(3), 307–332. doi:10.1177/0010414006286542.

McInnis, Maurie Dee & Louis P. Nelson. 2011. Shaping the body politic: Art and political formation in early america. Charlottesville, VA: University of Virginia Press.

ISSN 0022-2267, EISSN 1469-7742

Using the Visual CSL Editor, it seems the first change is easy to make: (1) in locators-article, change the prefix of page-variable from . to , and then (2) in group > locators > if article-journal, change the suffix of the issue variable from ). to . (I hope that's correct!)

The second should also be straightforward but since the example references in the Visual CSL Editor don't include a thesis, and my knowledge of CSL has become rusty, I don't know exactly where to make it.

Here's what a dissertation currently looks like in the Unified Style Sheet for Linguistics Journals:

Yu, Alan C. 2003. The morphology and phonology of infixation. University of California, Berkeley PhD dissertation.

Here's what it should look like in the Journal of Linguistics:

Yu, Alan C. L. 2003. The morphology and phonology of infixation. Ph.D. dissertation, University of California at Berkeley.

Can a CSL wizard help me achieve these changes?

Thank you very much!
