Default Citation style

The best you can do is select the citation, choose Edit Citation from
the drop-down, check "Suppress Author" -- and type the author name
outside the citation field, in the main text.

Or, once your work is absolutely finalized, convert the citation(s) to
plain text and move the parenthesis.

On a related note, how can I change the style sheet so that parantheses don't
automatically appear around a citation. *For example "Tomaskovic-Devey (1993)
concluded..." should have the citation in paranthesis.

Hi Peter & Yves,
* I realize that it's Chicago style. The issue is that there seems to be a
preference from the one reviewer to have the inline citations only listing 3
authors max and the year; but a different reviewer wants to have the
bibliography in APA style.


My situtation is that I must make the changes to get the signature from the
reviewers then send it to an editor who will ask for specific and final
formating changes. I expect to put everything back to a uniform style when
all is done, but in the mean time I have to deal with some non-uniform ideas
about citation styles.


When your reviewers are scientists sometimes the style they think is correct
is not the correct style they think it is.


This is a rather frustrating situation, and hence why I'm asking for code so
I can switch back easily.


But in the mean time I'm stuck making small (ish) changes to the current
styles.




At least all the changes to my thesis that are required are messing with
styles, and sentence structures.


Thanks Yves for all your help I will try to switch the numbers I missed and
see if it works.

I have another question on the same topic.
Is there any way to alter the code to give me
*xsl:when test="(position() = 1 and $cAuthors 3)"
rather then the current APA setting of six:
*xsl:when test="(position() = 1 and $cAuthors 6)"


Again I've had a reviewer request that I use et al anytime more then three
authors are listed.


That's Chicago style. You'd better check with your editor or publisher
as to whether that's acceptable in APA style.


I tried just altering the $cAuthors 3
that gives me
(first authors et al second author third author....sixth author)
not exactly what I need.... but closer
