It shows that *none* of the cases treated by the current AuthorsFormatterTest can be treated by AuthorList. Only two cases not being handled by AuthorsFormatter can be handled by AuthorList.\r\n\r\nI identified three things what the AuthorsFormatter does:\r\n\r\n1. It adds dots after Initials. Meaning: A L Some gets Some, A. L.\r\n2. It separates initials: Meaning: AL Some gets Some, A. L.\r\n3. It knows what initials are: Olsen Y.Y. gets Olsen, Y.Y. (and not Y.Y. Olsen)"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/JabRef/jabref/issues/comments/195938705","html_url":"https://github.com/JabRef/jabref/pull/950#issuecomment-195938705","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/JabRef/jabref/issues/950","id":195938705,"user":{"login":"oscargus","id":8114497,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/8114497?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/oscargus","html_url":"https://github.com/oscargus","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/oscargus/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/oscargus/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/oscargus/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/oscargus/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/oscargus/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/oscargus/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/oscargus/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/oscargus/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/oscargus/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2016-03-13T11:24:44Z","updated_at":"2016-03-13T11:24:44Z","body":"I'm a bit ambiguous regarding if the formatter really should add . and guess that initials should be separated... I think we should decide on this.\n\nOf course it helps improving the references from some perspective. Still it seems like two different use cases: 1) good author formatting in -> unified formatting out, 2) shit author formatting in -> make some guesses and provide most likely better formatting out. Not sure if they should be the same formatter. I would like 1) automatically, but not necessarily 2).\n\nNot sure how Bibtex will handle A L Some... Probably not as initials.\n\nShouldn't it be Olsen, Y. Y.? (But then Y.-Y. Olsen shouldn't be separated.)\n\nTwo more (actual) author names which might be good for tests: Kenneth O and fred harris."}}
