More Chicago Issues: § Symbol and Statute Date
Hi All,
I use a modified version of Chicago 17 (modified to show year in footnotes) and I have noticed that the statute item type shows the § symbol for the section, regardless of whether or not there is anything entered into that field.
Is there a way to get this removed? I use statute for Conventions, Treaties and Resolutions - and it works well. Most do not have content for the session field.
I have also realised that the statute does not show the full date in the reference list (this is not linked to my modification, reports etc. do).
Edit: I have noticed it is not doing this for all 'statute' items. For one, I don't have anything entered in either section or session and it is showing the symbol.
For another, I have info in session, it is not showing that info and it is not showing the symbol.

Edit: after that, download the file an import it manual by Zotero > Preference. It will be handy to change the name of it (editor > General info > Title), or it will change back to the official style, after an update of that style.
I found that by adding `Type: treaty` to Extra, it signals to Zotero that the entry is a treaty and removes the symbol.
