Help with Vancouver Style

billyshears68w
Hello,

a publisher has requested that I use Vancouver style, but with a couple of changes:

1) superscripted numbers (like so¹)

2) When referring to the same book or journal more than once, authors should not revert to the original number. Rather, a different (consecutive) number is inserted.

I see a "Vancouver (superscripted) " style available. However, it does not comply with the second requirement from the publisher, as it uses the same number each time I cite the source, rather than a different (consecutive) number.

is there a Vancouver style template that meets the two listed requirements?

Thanks in advance.

    Which publisher?
    Can you link to the style guidelines?

    The publisher is Henry Stewart. Here is their guidelines:

    What they describe are just endnotes, it's absolutely *not* the "Vancouver system", not sure why they use that label. How do the actual references look?

    Adamsmith, thanks for your help.

    Below are two sample references used in a previously published article by the journal:

    Yeah, this has nothing at all to do with Vancouver. Could you ask the journal for a full description of the style with, at a minimum, examples for journal articles, chapters from edited books, books, and webpages?

    This is the extent of the guidance regarding citing and bibliography:

    5. References should be in the Vancouver system i.e. referred to by number in the text with superscripted numbers (like so¹) and set out in full in a consecutive numerical list at the end of the paper. When referring to the same book or journal more than once, authors should not revert to the original number. Rather, a different (consecutive) number is inserted. Then, at the end of the paper, the correct style is 'Surname (of author), ref x. above', or if it refers to the reference immediately preceding, 'Ibid' is inserted in the list.
    This is an example of the first paragraph of an article in a Henry Stewart journal:

    Introduction

    Fast fashion is a business strategy which aims to reduce the processes involved in the buying cycle and lead times for getting new fashion product into stores, in order to satisfy consumer demand at its peak. The "Fast Fashion" concept has become a mainstay of the UK fashion industry, yet to date the phenomenon has received little attention from the academic literature. Fast fashion has been explored within the context of supply chain management ([24] Ko and Kincade, 1997; [13] Fiorito et al. , 1995, [12] 1998; [33] Sohal et al. , 1998; [30] Perry and Sohal, 2000; [17] Guercini, 2001; [4] Azuma, 2002; [27] Mattila et al. , 2002; [5] Birtwistle et al. , 2003; [26] Lee and Kincade, 2003), although the actual impact on, and implications for the supply chain, have largely been under researched and is ill defined in relation to the concept itself. This paper aims to provide a review of the literature relating to fast fashion in an effort to define the concept within the context of the supply chain, as well as using an exploratory study aimed at shaping the research agenda in the area of fast fashion.
