Thanks for your quick reply, Bruce. I have created a github issue, but I could unfortunately not tag it as "wontfix" myself.
https://github.com/citation-style-language/schema/issues/140 In my case, I will probably use latex (biblatex-apa) for this, as the journal is very picky about their citations. In case anyone is interested, another option to solve this is to use and="symbol" and use a regex for post-processing. This one works: "([&])(?=\s+(?:[\w-]+ ){1,3}[(])" -> "and" (unless there are punctuation characters in between the ampersand and the year, e.g. for first names, or there is random ampersands followed by brackets in the text) On Fri, 2017-10-06 at 10:31 +0000, Bruce D'Arcus wrote: > CSL has no concept of a "narrative citation," which would explain why > there's no way to distinguish formatting based on it. > There's been discussions about it, but am not remembering where we > ended up. > If we don't already have it, we should have a general issue ticket on > GitHub for the broader feature, and include a note about this > particular detail there. > Even if we label it "won't fix," at least we have the documentation > in one place. > > On Fri, Oct 6, 2017, 5:44 AM Malte Roedl <malte.ro...@postgrad.mbs.ac > .uk> wrote: > > Hello everyone, > > > > according to the APA style guidelines, which have many adoptions in > > various CSL-styles, it is mandatory to have 'and' connecting > > authors in > > narrative, and '&' connecting authors in parenthetical > > citations[1]. > > > > None of the styles I tried were accommodating for this rule. > > > > So then I've tried to build a if-else-control structure to identify > > whether it is a narrative or a parenthetical citation, but it seems > > that the processor would do that automatically by using "prefix" > > and > > "suffix"? > > Is there any way to identify in the csl-file what type of citation > > is > > calling the evaluation? > > Or even better, is there already an existing style that > > accommodates > > for my issue (I could not find one, but that may be because of very > > vague and ubiquitous search terms). > > > > Many thanks! > > Malte > > > > > > [1] e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/APA_style#In-text_citations > > ----------------------------------------------------------------- > > ------------- > > Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most > > engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot > > _______________________________________________ > > xbiblio-devel mailing list > > xbiblio-devel@lists.sourceforge.net > > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/xbiblio-devel > > ------------------------------------------------------------------- > ----------- > Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most > engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot > _______________________________________________ > xbiblio-devel mailing list > xbiblio-devel@lists.sourceforge.net > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/xbiblio-devel ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ xbiblio-devel mailing list xbiblio-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/xbiblio-devel
