Subject: Re: Encyclopedia reference in Chicago 15 - missing citation info for footnotes Author: Leanne (Mentor) Date: 01-17-2012 04:51 PM Not all templates have all the ref styles.  The easiest way to start is to copy the generic into the encyclopedia template and adjust/delete fields, add additional formating as needed from there.

Styles that predated the inclusion of a specific ref type won't have that ref type included, unless someone requests it.  There are almost 50 ref types, and most are not included in most (all?) of the output styles.  Even when one is updated for a user here on the forum, and posted, it is hard to find later.  And then one assumes you would want to make the same change to Chicago 16th?  Both A and B, and the thousands of styles that are available on the website, in a sllightly different way?    finally, if I were to do this for you, (and I stress I am not a Thomson employee) then I would need to know which exact template you would want altered: 15th or 16th and then A or B? Footnot or Bibliography templates?  If you have already made any changes to the out of the box template, attaching it so the modification builds on yours would also  be recommended.    Anyway, you would need to specify exactly what fields you use and want to show (only the Vol missing in the current output?) Is the field you want in footnotes to be the "cited pages" or Pages field. How should it appear in the Bibliography?  Have you tried treating Encyclopedia references as a chapter section as an easy workaround.  Does it produce something closer to the output you are looking for?  I  made an attempt in the attached style below, but it probably still needs some tweaking.
