Is there any name-as-sort-order=never available?

Hi there,

I'm sorry, this might be covered somewhere in the forum already, it's just I couldn't manage to formulate the query to leave a whole lot of irrelevant posts out from the response. I recall that some of the CSL specs stated that "no one needs never, so valid values are only 'all' and 'first'". I'm not sure, why exactly is that?

The reason for the question is that I need a bibliography record arranged as
1.Nakagawa, T. Unknown word guessing and part-of-speech tagging using support vector machines / T. Nakagawa, T. Kudoh, Y. Matsumoto // Proceedings of the sixth natural language processing pacific rim symposium. – 2001. – P. 325–331.

As you can see, the mentioning of the first author must be done in FAMILY-GIVEN order and the section after single "/" must be GIVEN-FAMILY. Is there a possibility to do this without specifying this whole section as Contributors and specifying their given name as a part of family one?
  • In the CSL code for your cites, you would use two separate names declarations. One would have the name-as-sort-order set to "all" (or "first"), and limit the number of names to one, and the other would have no name-as-sort-order attribute set, so the default (non-sort ordering) would be used. In addition, you would want to suppress the et al. term on the first name. In CSL 0.8.1, that is possible only if you don't need the term anywhere else (i.e. not even in citations). CSL 1.0 can suppress the term more flexibly, but it's a ways away from deployment still.
