So I have some rough fulfillment of a thesis' formal requirements already. The status quo is attached in full in the MWE. It essentially consists of tidbits I asked for on this very site.
Some source-unrelated things that need fixing:
the comma behind the author in the references should be omitted.
the order of the names should be last-first for all names, but it does not work in the references and in the bibliography, the order only works for the first name.
the names in the references are not separated by
/
(it's currentlyand
).
Since I got the last visit
bit for the urlseen
-key to work myself (which is huge in relation to my knowledge of biblatex), I think only source-related left is some stuff for InCollection / InProceedings sources (these publications should all be formatted according to this one style definition).
The order of the following elements should be (elements not mentioned should stay as they currently are):
article title
"in:"
name(s) of editor (editors), by the scheme last-first with the first name(s) in initials
"(editor)" or "(editors)"
proceedingstitle/collectiontitle/maintitle
no. of proceedingstitle, if there is any
edition of proceedingstitle, if higher than 1
location of publisher
pages
This is the status quo:
Brandt, A. von/E. Hoffmann (1987):
Die nordischen Länder von der Mitte des 11. Jahrhunderts bis 1448, in: Europa im Hoch und Spätmittelalter, Seibt, F./Smith, J. (editors), 4th ed., Handbuch der europäischen Geschichte, no. 2, Klett-Cotta, Stuttgart, pp. 884–917.
An example of what it should be like:

and friends. This has already been covered in various places, including lockstep's guide. For the remaining problems, consider editing this post. A question posed in terms of "before" and "after" images is neither clear to potential answerers nor useful to anyone looking for similar help. – Audrey Jun 26 '13 at 20:09byeditor
string in paretheses? You've already asked about that, so just include Marco's code here. The colon afterurlseen
? Use\DeclareFieldFormat{urldate}{\mkbibparens{\bibstring{urlseen}\addcolon\space#1}}
. I am pretty sure this will help, but I have no idea whether or not I have entirely answered the question. – Audrey Jun 27 '13 at 13:25edition
