[Tex/LaTex] How to adjust verbose-like citation style to requirements of the department

biblatexbiblatex-chicagobiblatex-dwfootnotes

I’m preparing my PhD thesis [social science] and I need to adjust style of footnotes and bibliography to the formal demands of my department [of one of the universities in Poland].

I need almost full citation in footnotes. So I started to use verbose

I started to use

biblatex (with biber)

with

style=verbose-inote-luh-ipw

as it is the closest style that I could find. But it still needs some improvements/modifications.

By using it i get something like this:

while I need something like this:

My desired format for footnotes and bibliography is:

For articles: Name of Author(s): Title of article in italics and no quotation mark. “Title of journal in quotation mark (without italics and no “[in:]” before it)” Year, vol. no.
For incollection: Name of Author(s): Title of chapter in italics and no quotation mark. [in:] Title of book in italics, Name of Editor(s) and after it (ed./eds. in parenthesis). City Year of publications (without comma in between)
For edited books: Name of author(s), (ed./eds. in parenthesis). Title of book in italics. City Year of publication (no comma in between)
For books: Only change that I need is that there would be no comma between City Year of publication

In sum, the abovementioned style has all the elements that I need but they order and formatting needs to be a little bit changed.

Since verbose-inote-luh-ipw doesn't differ that much from verbose-inote, I decided to use the latter as basis. It is often nicer to modify the standard styles directly instead of the (sometimes highly-specific) custom styles.

[Tex/LaTex] Adapting typesetting of editor field information in verbose-style

First, compiling your document I get an error:

! Package biblatex Error: 'backend' is load-time only option.

You should move backend=biber, bibencoding=utf8, to the package options.

To swap the appearance of editor and booktitle, you have to alter the definitions of incollection, inbook, etc. This shouldn't be too hard, you'll find them in the file biblatex.def.

Then you need to redefine the bibmacro byeditor+others to get something like "John Doe (ed.)". The following code, redefining bibmacro byeditor+others, works for your example, though you might run in some problems with other editortypes:

\documentclass[paper=a4,fontsize=12pt]{scrartcl}
\usepackage{filecontents}
\begin{filecontents}{\jobname.bib}
@incollection{Smith2012,
    Address = {Oxford},
    Author = {Brian Smith},
    Booktitle = {Big Book of Knowledge},
    Editor = {Tony Riley},
    Pages = {12-34},
    Publisher = {Oxford University Press},
    Title = {How to do it},
    Year = {2012}}
\end{filecontents}

\usepackage[style=verbose-trad3, 
natbib=true,
sortcites=true, 
block=space, 
isbn=false, 
url=false, 
doi=false, 
dashed=false, 
dateabbrev=false,
backend=biber,
bibencoding=utf8,
]{biblatex}

\renewcommand{\footcite}{\cite}
\usepackage[ngerman,british]{babel}
\usepackage[applemac]{inputenc}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[style=english,english=british]{csquotes}

\renewcommand*{\cite}{\autocite}
\renewcommand*{\newunitpunct}{\addcomma\space}

\usepackage{biblatex}
\renewbibmacro{in:}{%
\ifentrytype{article}{space}{%

\printtext{\bibstring{in}\nopunct\addspace}}}

\renewbibmacro*{publisher+location+date}{%

{\setunit*{\addcomma\space}}
{\setunit*{\addcolon\space}}%
\printlist{publisher}%
\setunit*{\addcomma\space}%

}

    {}
    {\ifnamesequal{author}{editor}
      {\bibnamedash}
      {\printnames{editor}}%
     \addspace
     \mkbibparens{\usebibmacro{editorstrg}}%
     \clearname{editor}}

[Tex/LaTex] Biblatex – Verbose style : adding (year) to the author-title format

Normally the verbose-trad styles go together with a authortitle style and thus use titles to disambiguate references. So "Johnny, op. cit." will only appear if you cite exactly one work by Johnny, as soon as there are more, the title field is added to avoid confusion.

Anyway, we can make sure the year is always added.

We first borrow a authoryear macro

\newbibmacro*{cite:labeldate+extradate}{%
  \iffieldundef{labelyear}
    {}
    {\printtext[parens]{%
       \printtext[bibhyperref]{%
         \printlabeldateextra}}}}

And then inject this macro into the relevant places to print the year after the name

\renewbibmacro*{cite:name}{%
  \printnames{labelname}%
  \setunit{\printdelim{nameyeardelim}}%
  \usebibmacro{cite:labeldate+extradate}%
  \setunit*{\printdelim{nametitledelim}}}

\renewbibmacro*{cite:idem}{%
  \bibstring[\mkibid]{idem\thefield{gender}}%
  \setunit{\printdelim{nameyeardelim}}%
  \usebibmacro{cite:labeldate+extradate}%
  \setunit{\printdelim{nametitledelim}}}

MWE

\documentclass[12pt,a4paper]{book}

\usepackage[bibstyle=authoryear, citestyle=verbose-trad1, indexing=cite, giveninits=true, citepages=omit]{biblatex}
\addbibresource{biblatex-examples.bib}

\newbibmacro*{cite:labeldate+extradate}{%
  \iffieldundef{labelyear}
    {}
    {\printtext[parens]{%
       \printtext[bibhyperref]{%
         \printlabeldateextra}}}}

\renewbibmacro*{cite:name}{%
  \printnames{labelname}%
  \setunit{\printdelim{nameyeardelim}}%
  \usebibmacro{cite:labeldate+extradate}%
  \setunit*{\printdelim{nametitledelim}}}

\renewbibmacro*{cite:idem}{%

  \setunit{\printdelim{nameyeardelim}}%
  \usebibmacro{cite:labeldate+extradate}%
  \setunit{\printdelim{nametitledelim}}}
