Enoch Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 Accordance has improved on Bibliography & Citation, but I was frustrated today wanting to know who is the author of a commentary on Qohelet. Here is what I got for citation: "Adrian Schenker, ed., Biblia Hebraica Quinta, Fascicle 18: General Introduction and Megilloth, Accordance electronic ed. (Stuttgart: Deutsche Bibelgesellschaft, 2004), paragraph 3300. accord://read/BHQ_Commentary#3300" It would be so nice to know who wrote this commentary in the series; Or did Schenker do the whole set? But if Schenker wrote the whole set, he would not be cited only as editor of the set, but as the author. As a citation this seems to me to be a bug as it apparently gives an improper citation.

Helen Brown Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 At the start of the Qohelet commentary it says: prepared by Y.A.P. Goldman. I am not sure how authors of commentary series are tagged in multi-author commentaries, but if this can be fixed relatively easily, I am sure it will be. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The BHQ text is edited by one person but the apparatus commentary is compiled and authored by someone else in each edition. I do not believe this is included in the Accordance modules for some reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enoch Posted October 4, 2018 Author Share Posted October 4, 2018 At the start of the Qohelet commentary it says: prepared by Y.A.P. Goldman. I am not sure how authors of commentary series are tagged in multi-author commentaries, but if this can be fixed relatively easily, I am sure it will be. Thanks for the hope for a fix. When one is looking at multiple commentaries, it is not an efficient use of time to have to go to the start of a book commentary to find the author of a book in a set. I seem to recall a prediction that you were going to get the command-F function working in Accordance, was it 10 years ago? I hope this one goes better. I must say that this author has an interesting name for a commentator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
