Style Request: The British Journal for the Philosophy of Science
Hi folks,
Any chance someone would be willing to put together this style for me?
In-text citations:
(Campbell and Pedersen [2007]; Mares [2001])

There is no online version of the style guide - just a pdf the editors send to authors. Here's the relevant information:
In-text citations:
Citations in the text should give the author's surname and year, plus page range where appropriate. The citation should be enclosed in parentheses, with the year enclosed in square brackets. The following examples should illustrate the various conventions:
Example:
"In this paper, I will address an argument originally presented in (Smith [2001]). A variant of this argument has been given by Jones ([2002]) and more recently by Kendall et al. ([unpublished]), drawing on ideas in (Brown [1998], [2000]) and (Peters [1956], pp. 123–9). Others have addressed similar issues; see, for example, (Phillips and Lewis [2004]; Clarke [1989a], [1989b]; Anderson et al. [2005]). (For details of terminology, the reader is directed to Freeman [forthcoming])."
Note:
• If the author name is part of the sentence, it should not be repeated in the citation. So, for example, ‘Jones and Smith ([1994]) advocate the use of...’
• In a single citation, multiple papers by the same author should be separated by commas; papers by different authors should be separated by semi-colons: (Jones [1999], [2000], [2004]; Smith [2010]).
• If you cite two items with the same author and year of publication, they should be distinguished by appending 'a', 'b' etc. to the year – i.e. the years should be [2006a], [2006b], and so on (rather than [2006], [2006a]).
• Items with more than two authors may be abbreviated by 'et al.' in citations (but the bibliography entry should name all authors).
• Items that have not appeared in print should be given as [unpublished], or as [forthcoming] if the item has been accepted for publication but has not yet appeared. If there are multiple such entries for the same author, they should be [forthcoming (a)], [forthcoming (b)], [unpublished (a)], [unpublished (b)] etc.
• Page numbers and page ranges should be preceded by 'p.' or 'pp.', respectively. Page ranges should be given as, for example, 'pp. 123–9', not 'pp. 123–129' (i.e. all identical leading digits should be removed).
• If a citation comes within a parenthetical remark, and the insertion of additional parentheses would be distracting, they may be omitted. Thus, for example, '(For more details, see Smith [2001])' rather than '(For more details, see (Smith [2001]))'.
References:
Please list of all (and only) the items cited in the text. The bibliography should be arranged in alphabetical order of first author; where multiple papers by the same author are cited, these should be arranged in order of year of publication. The structure of the bibliography entry depends upon the kind of work cited.
Smith, A. B. [2001]: 'On Brown's Structural Anti-anti-realism', Journal of Synthetic Analysis, 72, pp. 123–56.
Tavistock, M. [1917]: A Treatise on Structures, London: Webster Press.
Verne, I. E., Brown, P. F. and Kemp, K. [2005]: 'Structures and their Forms', in M. S. Peters and K. Kemp (eds), The State of Structuralism, Boston, MA: MIT Press, pp. 51–7.
• All authors' names should be given in surname, initials format. (Please ensure that, in papers with multiple authors, this formatting is applied to all authors).
• Editors' names should be given in initials, surname format. After the name(s) of the editor or editors, insert '(ed.)' or '(eds)' accordingly.
• Where a paper has multiple authors or editors, they should all be named in the bibliography entry, with each name formatted as above.
• Year of publication should be in square brackets, followed by a colon.
• The title of an article in a journal or collection should be in single quotation marks. The title of a journal or book (including collections) should be in italics. Volume numbers of journals should be in bold.
• The page range should be at the end of the entry, in the format described in the previous section.
• The name of the publisher of a book or collection should be preceded by their location, separated by a colon.
• Apart from the colon after the year of publication, and between the location and publisher, all items should be separated by commas.
Addresses of websites (including documents available online) should be surrounded with angle brackets.
Thanks,

Can you also post a link to the author guidelines where you found what you posted here? I think I'm blind.
