\subsection{Notes}

SBL is not consistent with how they cite an ancient source with translator and
text collection. The most common option is:

Author, \emph{Title} Source division (trans.\@ A. N. Translator, Collection
Vol:Page).

\pkg{biblatex-sbl} adopts this format even when it departs from the blog or
handbook (as in the case of the \citetitle*{treu} above).

\subsection{Notes}

\begin{itemize}
  \item SBLHS~§6.2.21 states “It is unnecessary when citing a single volume to
    give information about the total number of volumes in the series.”
    Accordingly, although this blog post includes the total volumes for the
    three individual \citeshortauthor{moulton:1908-1976} volumes,
    \pkg{biblatex-sbl} omits them.
  \item The format of the translator in \citeshortauthor{zerwick:2011} differs
    from a similar example in SBLHS~§6.2.20. I've opted to use the latter as I
    think it's more consistent with how SBL generally prefers formatting in

\begin{itemize}
  \item The SBLHS blog has a typo for the translator. It should be
    \emph{Helmbold}, not \emph{Helmhold}.
  \item I've also chosen to use leave out the LCL qualifier for the translator
    as elsewhere SBL does not include the edition.

\subsection{Notes}

SBL tends to have a preference to use Latin titles for ancient works rather
than English ones. In keeping with this, I have use \citetitle*{thucydides:pw}
rather than \emph{History of the Peloponnesian War}, even though \emph{P.W.}
better relates to the English title. This follows a 2023 publication from SBL
Press at \url{https://www.sbl-site.org/assets/pdfs/pubs/0606104P-front.pdf}.

SBL does not include the date in the bibliographic entry when citing articles
from reference works using note style. Additionally, SBL now formats
abbreviations in the same way as the bibliography rather than placing the
editor after the title. See
