apa.csl bugs (use commas instead of semicolons between citations)

[reagle]

Hello, I recently used apa.csl and noticed two issues, the first of which is definitely a bug.

1. Citations of two or more works are separated by semi-colons, not commas e.g., (Jones & Powell, 1993; Peterson, 1995, 1998; Smith, 1990).
2. A question really: in the references should bell hooks (i.e., "hook, b.") be with the other Hs, or at the end?

http://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/560/3/ says "When your parenthetical citation includes two or more works, order them the same way they appear in the reference list, separated by a semi-colon. ... (Berndt, 2002; Harlow, 1983)"

Yes, I get commas when I use it with pandoc 1.9.4.1 compiled with citeproc-hs 0.3.4.

You should probably report this at the citeproc-hs project, then, since the style is okay (just to make sure: you're using the latest version from the repository?). See http://code.google.com/p/citeproc-hs/

2 - Someone would have to find out - I doubt it's in the styleguide, since the only two people I can think of are ee cummings and bell hooks, neither a staple of the literature in psych ;-), so the only way is probably to ask them - they're surprisingly responsive.

For 2, you could post in the comments section of this blog post: http://blog.apastyle.org/apastyle/2012/03/title-case-and-sentence-case-capitalization-in-apa-style.html

I'll note that for #1 the latest CSL works, so I'm going to close this and open a new one.
