editor/translator as same person

dowens
Some books have the same person as the editor and translator. I want to be able to indicate that by selecting "editor/translator" in the contributor drop-down menu. Then I can use a style definition to output the following: ed. and trans. William G. Rusch.

I wouldn't think it would be a big change in code, would it?

    In CSL 1.0, when the editor(s) and translator(s) are the same for a work, the style will automatically list the name once, with the "ed. and trans." label. This has the advantage that it keeps things tidy in the data layer (i.e. inside Zotero itself), and allows searches for (say) "all works translated by Smith" in the usual way.

    This feature will have to wait for the new processor to arrive in Zotero, but that work is in progress, and it should be out later this year.

    Excellent--I'm glad to hear it. I will look forward to this. Thanks for the quick response.
