The long-awaited news from the Chicago Manual of Style: Place of publication will no longer be used in citations as of the 18th edition (with rare exceptions for clarity).
Took me a minute. And a lookup. I get it, and am mildly surprised at the enthusiasm.
I don’t expect to try to teach it to my authors. They have enough trouble with hyphens and em dashes despite my clever little mnemonic.
Since there's no alt text provided*, here is the slide typed out:
Epstein–Barr virus
Ali–Frazier match
but
Albers-Schönberg disease
(*Although a screen reader presumably won't tell you that there's an en dash in the first two lines and a hyphen in the las)
I have a tendency to do this when writing and then fix it in editing. I still don't like it becoming an official style.
I need to go tie an onion to my belt.
This particular one has never been a "we've always done it this way" or "this is how I learned it" thing for me; it's a logical issue, because while what comes after the colon may technically be a complete sentence, *so are all OTHER independent clauses*. It's not a new sentence, so lowercase.
