Update request for ACL style sheet to include editor names in the bib files (@inproceedings) #24

Open asdogruoz opened 8 months ago

Dear @mjpost and all, ACL Anthology has recently updated the editor information for proceedings/papers. But, this update should be reflected on the the ACL style sheet as well as compilation of the proceedings code/template. For further information, please see https://github.com/acl-org/acl-anthology/issues/2706#issuecomment-1785334633. Thank you,

We updated Anthology BibTeX to include the editors of every proceedings volume. Can you clarify what you are requesting here? It is not clear to me.

Hi @mjpost @shashwatup9k, Most of it is resolved but there is still this issue.

Hi @mjpost We also need to update the ACL styles sheet as well as ACLPUB especially _aclnatbib.bst.

I think we need to add format.edition output after line number 1552 only. And, it will work.

P.S.: I can send a pull request if you prefer.

Thanks

I don't think I have the authority to do this. We've never printed editors on citations in ACL works cited sections so this is a big change and probably something that should be decided by the ACL. I also am not convinced it's a good idea. The editor role for proceedings is quite different IMO for conference proceedings compared to a journal or a book. In the former there is very little quality control and it mostly denotes the conference organizer. This will also affect a lot of length to works cited sections.
