In the 17th ed of Chicago Manual of Style Notes and Bibliography ibid is abandoned in favor of shortened citations. I’ve been experimenting with the Chicago 16th Footnote Style and as far as I understand, the Footnote Templates’ short form setting for including title to disambiguate citations only work at one level. Example on what I get:
1 Glover M. Allen, Bats: Biology, Behavior, and Folklore (Mineola, N.Y.: Dover Publications, 2004).
2 Glover M. Allen, Bat Behaviour (Mineola, N.Y.: Dover Publications, 2006).
3 Allen, Bats, 34.
4 Allen, Bats, 54.
5 Allen, Bat Behaviour, 123.
6 Allen, Bat Behaviour, 34.
If I’ve understood the 17th ed correctly, footnote 4 and 6 above should have been:
4 Allen, 54.
6 Allen, 34.
Grateful for any confirmation or other feedback on this.
