BibTeX field type: editor
In the editor
-field, you can specify all editors to the work you want to cite. BibTeX has several ways of specifying editor names but expects in all cases a consistent and exact arrangement so that inaccurate information could lead to the unwanted output of the editor's name.
Notation: {Firstname Lastname}
A natural indication such as {Firstname Lastname}
is possible, but not vice versa, "Lastname Firstname."
Example, {Firstname Lastname}
@article{ (...),
...
editor={Isaac Newton}
...
}
Notation: {Lastname, Firstname}
However, we recommend the following way {Lastname, Firstname}
i.e., last name and first name separated by a comma. This way allows for more control to distinguish between the first and last name.
Example, {Lastname, Firstname}
@article{ (...),
...
editor={Newton, Isaac}
...
}
Notation: {Lastname, Suffix, Firstname}
If you want to specify any suffix, for example, Junior, Senior, the 5th (Jr. Sr. V), do so in the following way strictly in this order, separating each component with a comma:
{Lastname, Suffix, Firstname}
Example, {Lastname, Suffix, Firstname}
@article{ (...),
...
editor={King, Jr , Luther}
...
}
How to add multiple editors in BibTeX?
You specify the individual editors in the manner described above. The separator, AND, divides multiple editors. So in this way:
{Lastname, Firstname AND Lastname, Firstname AND Lastname, Firstname AND ...}
Example, "How to add multiple editors?""
@article{ (...),

editor={Fisher, James AND Clark, John}
