Hello, I have found another minor problem in the bibl-apa style (ConTeXt v. 2011.02.25 22:03), this time for Master's theses, which get an extra space between the phrase ‘Master's Thesis,’ and the university's name and address, thus: Smith, A. B. (2000). A Thesis Title. Master's thesis, City, Country: University of Something. I think this would be better as: Smith, A. B. (2000). A Thesis Title. Master's thesis. City, Country: University of Something. (This also changes the comma to a dot.) I have implemented this with the following modifications to bibl-apa.tex (original lines commented out, mine inserted afterwards): ---- \setuppublicationlayout[mastersthesis]{% \insertauthors{}{ }{}% \insertpubyear{(}{). }{}% \inserttitle{\bgroup }{\egroup \insertseries{ (}{)}{}. }{}% \insertbibtype{}{.}{Master's thesis.}% % \insertbibtype{}{, }{Master's thesis, }% \insertpublisher{ }{.}{.}% % \insertpages{ }{p. }{}% \insertpages{ }{ p. }{}% \insertnote{ }{.}{}% } \setuppublicationlayout[phdthesis]{% \insertauthors{}{ }{}% \insertpubyear{(}{). }{}% \inserttitle{\bgroup\it }{\egroup \insertseries{ (}{)}{}. }{}% % \insertbibtype{}{, }{PhD thesis,}% \insertbibtype{}{.}{PhD thesis.}% \insertpublisher{ }{.}{.}% \insertpages{ }{ p. }{}% \insertnote{ }{.}{}% } ---- This also incorporates three other changes: changing the comma after ‘PhD thesis’ to a dot; removing the space after the punctuation in the PhD bibtype ‘after’ group (only used if type is specified); and adding a space to the start of the pages ‘after’ group. I hope that these can be incorporated, if they meet with agreement. Aside: this still doesn't correspond to current official APA style (though it's a bit closer), but I'm not sure how many people care about that. In my case I only care that my bibliography doesn't show obvious weirdness like double spaces. Here's a minimal example to show the behaviour (the spacing=packed makes it clearer where the extra space appears): ---- \startpublication[k=mcmillan1993abbotsford,t=phdthesis, a={{McMillan}},y=1993, n=150,s=McM93] \author[]{S.~G.}[S.~G.]{}{McMillan} \title{The Abbotsford Formation} \pubyear{1993} \pubname{University of Otago} \city{Dunedin, New Zealand} \stoppublication \startpublication[k=vondobeneck1985gesteinsmagnetische,t=mastersthesis, a={{von Dobeneck}},y=1985, n=483,s=vD85] \author[]{T.}[T.]{von}{Dobeneck} \pubyear{1985} \title{{Gesteinsmagnetische Untersuchungen an tiefseesedimenten des Sudatlantiks}} \pubname{Inst.
