Okay, JP, I solved the second problem (no chapter-level bibliography for Chapter 2) easily enough: had forgotten to include repeat=yes

\placebtxrendering
  [chapterlist]
  [method=local,
   repeat=yes]

Now let's see if I can solve the first problem!

Hi Julian,

I tested your suggestion with the current LMTX APA specification, and it turns out that the grouping logic is already there.

With:

|\cite[authoryear][beiser1987,beiser1990] |

ConTeXt produces:

|(Beiser, 1987, 1990) |

whereas two different authors give:

|(Beiser, 1987; Jacobi, 1785) |

There is also the |authoryears| variant, which produces the narrative form:

|Beiser (1987, 1990) |

So your suggestion is still very useful: this would make a good additional example for the Garden page, since the existing simple example does not show that APA already handles repeated authors this way.

I attach the small MWE I used for the test.

Best, JP

JP

It just occurs to me, looking at one of the simple examples inhttps://wiki.contextgarden.net/Creating_a_bibliography_and_citing_sources, that it might be a good idea to include an example of two works by the same author, as well as 2 works involving different authors.

The example provided is

\cite
   [authoryear]
   [beiser1987,jacobi1785]

and that will produce, in-text, (Beiser, 1987; Jacobi, 1785).

But let's say Beiser wrote a second work in 1990.

\cite
   [authoryear]
   [beiser1987,beiser1990]

will produce (Beiser, 1987; Beiser, 1990).  It might look better if we could get (Beiser, 1987, 1990). At the moment I can't quite see how to get that.

Julian
