Picky stuff
(Chicago Manual of Style, 15th edition. 2006. Chicago: University of Chicago Press.)
2.12 Line spacing…. A single character space, not two spaces, should be left after
periods at the ends of sentences… and after colons. (p. 61)
6.126 Run-in lists…. A list of terms or names, “and” should be preceded by a comma
[e.g., Alabama, Mississippi, and Louisiana]. (pp. 171-2)
6.46 Commas needed or omitted.... commas are used both before and after the year. (p. 253).
6.8 Periods and commas. Periods and commas precede closing quotation marks, whether double or single. (p. 6.8)
6.9 Colons, semicolons, quotation marks, and exclamation points. Unlike periods and commas, these all follow closing quotation marks unless a question mark or exclamation point belongs within the quoted matter. [e.g.:
She asked me, “How do I become an economic developer?”
She really said, “I want to be an economic developer”?]
8.47 Continents, countries, cities, oceans, and such. Entities that appear on maps are always capitalized, as are adjectives and nouns derived from them…. (pp. 326-7)
8.49 Regional terms (often based on points of the compass) that are accepted as proper names but do not normally appear on maps are usually capitalized. Adjectives and nouns derived from such terms, however, are usually lowercased…. ‘the Northwest; northwestern’. (p. 327)
8.55 Capitalization. Words denoting political divisions—from empire, republic, and state down to ward and precinct—are capitalized when they follow a name and are used as an accepted part of the name. When preceding the name, such terms are usually capitalized in names of countries but lowercased in entities below the national level. Used alone, they are almost always lowercased…. (pp. 329-30)
8.56 Governmental entities. Where the government rather than the place is meant, the words state, city, and the like are usually capitalized. (p. 330)
9.19 Percentages. Percentages are always given in numerals. [In general text,] the word percent is used; in … copy that includes numerous percentage figures… [such as tables], the symbol % is more appropriate.” (p. 384)
9.24 U.S. currency. If a number expressing an amount of money is spelled out, so [is] the word dollar(s); if numerals are used, they are accompanied by the symbol $....”
International currencies, examples: C$300, NZ$749, US$25 [typically without
periods] (p. 386)
9.3 [Numerals: please note that we differ slightly from] Chicago’s general rule. The following are spelled out: whole numbers from one through [ten], round numbers, and any number beginning a sentence. For other numbers, numerals are used…. (p. 380)
9.36 Centuries. Particular centuries are spelled out and lowercased.” (p. 389)
15.34 ‘U.S.’ or ‘US.’ … U.S. traditionally appears with periods.” (p. 568)
17.29 More than three authors. For works by or edited by four to ten persons, all names are usually given in a bibliography or reference list… In a note or text citation, on the name of the first author is included, followed by… “et al.” with no intervening comma. (p. 650)
ARED preferences
"Data": Per Webster’s Ninth New Collegiate Dictionary, the preferred use of the word “data” is plural (e.g., the data are now available).
"Economic development": except in titles, quotes, or references, we generally abbreviate "economic development" as E.D.
"Website": We use "website" as one (single) word and not capitalized.
