Description

When you cite a book that only has an editor the editor is named twice.

Ex.

Reinhart Koselleck, ed., Geschichtliche Grundbegriffe: Historisches Lexikon zur Politisch-Sozialen Sprache in Deutschland, ed. Reinhart Koselleck (Stuttgart: Klett, 1972).

Based on the <a href="http://www.chicagomanualofstyle.org/tools_citationguide.html"> CMS</a> It looks like the editor should not appear in the second spot when there is no author.

Elena - Do you know whether this problem be fixed in the CSL, or does it require more intensive work?

This didn't use to happen--did Simon make any changes in cite.js related to this? I may be wrong, but I think previously editors were automatically omitted after the title if they appeared in place of authors. In any case, this can be fixed in CSL--I have to teach tonight, so probably will fix after that. Elena
