markdown.obsidian.personal.authors
Functions for managing the original authors of the texts in one’s personal Obsidian.md math vault.
The convention we use for author names is either <family_name>
or <family_name>_<given_name>_<middle_or_other_initial>
. The letters are all in lower case and spaces are replaced with underscores
_
, but hyphens -
are preserved. All accents from names are removed. For example, gauss
(for Carl Friedrich Gauss), kim_hyun_jong
(for Hyun Jong Kim, the author of trouver
; note that his given name is Hyun Jong and his family name is Kim), ellenberg_jordan_s
(for Jordan Stuart Ellenberg), doleans-dade_catherine
(for Catherine Doléans-Dade), and verdier_jean-louis
(for Jean-Louis Verdier) are examples of names formatted under this convention.
just_last_name
just_last_name (author_name)
Return True
if the author’s name is formatted to only have the last name.
