self-cite author info #9

Closed katrin-berkenbusch closed 6 years ago

katrin-berkenbusch commented 6 years ago

The listing of authors in the self-cite information needs to be the family name, followed by the initials for each authors, e.g., "Thompson, F.N.; Abraham, E.R.; Berkenbusch, K. (2017)".

I can fix it, I am just raising the issue as a note for the template.

APA only allows one middle initial as per my comment on the commit

This is weird. If I use this as my source

% Authors must be listed with their full names separated by \and.           
\author{John A. G. Smith \and Jane E. Smith}                                                                             

I get the following output: "Smith, J.A.G.; Smith, J.E. (2015). An example Fisheries Assessment Report (FAR)."

What does your author line look like?

dmiddleton commented 6 years ago

I had

\author{David A.J. Middleton \and Sam A. Middleton \and Oliver L. Wilson}

but when changed to

\author{David A. J. Middleton \and Sam A. Middleton \and Oliver L. Wilson}

it works as intended. So having initials separated by a space is important, it seems. But solved, so excellent news.
