Extra comma after the first author's last name

Post by thomasb »

The entry

Code: Select all

@book{testBook,
    author    = "Author One and Author Two and Author Three",
    title     = "Topic",
    publisher = "Editor",
    year      = "1900",
}
give the output :

Code: Select all

[OTT] One, Author, Author Two, Author Three
So there is an extra comma between the first author's first name and last name.

That's normal - the bibliography is sorted by last names, so for the first author the order between first and last names is flipped to start the line with the names used for sorting
