When citing an @inproceedings in biblatex-apa, I am getting the volume editor's(s') name(s) printed twice in the reference list. MWE:
`\documentclass{article}

\usepackage{polyglossia}
\setdefaultlanguage[variant=american]{english}
\usepackage{csquotes}
\usepackage[%
backend=biber,
style=apa,
]{biblatex}
\usepackage{filecontents}
\begin{filecontents}{minwex.bib}
@INPROCEEDINGS{salam,
author = {Salam, Abdus},
editor = {Svartholm, Nils},
title = {Weak and Electromagnetic Interactions},
date = {1968},
booktitle = {Elementary particle theory},
eventdate = {1968-05-19/1968-05-25},
venue = {Aspen{"a}sgarden, Lerum},
publisher = {Almquist & Wiksell},
location = {Stockholm},
pages = {367-377},
}
\end{filecontents}
\addbibresource{minwex.bib}

\begin{document}
\nocite{*}
\printbibliography%[title=Bibliographie]
\end{document}`
The produced reference contains the editor twice:
test-apa-biblatex
Is there a way to solve the problem?
Thank you for all this APA work.

The duplicate editors issue is also discussed in #106.

\documentclass{article}

\usepackage[backend=biber, style=apa,]{biblatex}

\addbibresource{biblatex-examples.bib}

\begin{document}
\nocite{salam,moraux,pines,westfahl:space}
\printbibliography
\end{document}

gives

Moraux, P. (1979). Le De Anima dans la tradition gr` ecque: Quelques aspects de l’interpretation du trait´ e, de Theophraste à Themistius In Aristotle on Mind and the Senses [Proceedings of the Seventh Symposium Aristotelicum] (G. E. R. Lloyd & G. E. L. Owen, Eds.). Cambridge, Cambridge University Press. 281–324

According to https://apastyle.apa.org/style-grammar-guidelines/references/examples/conference-proceeding-references @inproceedings should look pretty much the same as @incollection (https://apastyle.apa.org/style-grammar-guidelines/references/examples/edited-book-chapter-references), so there are two issues

  1. The editors should be in front of the title
  2. the pages field should be in parentheses after the title.

Should be fixed in 9.12, just released. I hadn't seen these web updates - they basically confirm that proceedings/inproceedings are just aliases to book/inbook/article which is how they are now implemented, with suitable mappings.

Just tested 9.12, and it works fine for me.
Thank you for all this work.
