subtitle missing in edited volume chapter footers #57

Closed Glottotopia closed 7 years ago

Glottotopia commented 7 years ago

The automatically generated citation in the footer of edited volumes does not include the substitle of a chapter anymore

Do chapters have subtitles included with \subtitle? Indeed, the subtitles of edited volumes are missing in the citation footer.

Glottotopia commented 7 years ago

we have a book entitled "On this and other worlds: Voices from Amazonia." The editors argue that the subtitle should be included in the canonical citation since it is only there that the relation to Amazonia is made.

On the other hand, we have the TMNLP volumes, which have very long titles and very long subtitles. However, I believe that suggesting shorter titles and subtitles might be a better way to go than dropping the subtitles altogether from the canonical citation for every chapter of our books.

I agree with this. Titles can be truncated in headers, but they shouldn't be truncated in canonical bibliographical references.

Of course, I agree: If there is a subtitle, it should appear in the citation. My question was more concerned with subtitles of chapters and their LaTeX implementation. Namely, do chapters allow for a separate \subtitle command, or are subtitles a part of \title? @Glottotopia 's issue description was unclear in this respect:

The automatically generated citation in the footer of edited volumes does not include the subtitle of a chapter anymore

I take this to mean that "subtitle" was referring to the subtitle of the edited volume.

this is correct. There is no special command of the type \chaptersubtitle.
