The minus sign will remove the author name only from the citation, not the formatted bibliography. To do the latter, you will need to modify your csl file to omit the author names.

Hi – newbie here, so there's a risk that this is a trivial mistake, but I can't see for looking...

I'm working with citations are in footnotes, and am struggling to suppress author in the reference.

The ones I thought were easy are in markdown document as (for example):

[-@schillebeeckx1974; -@schillebeeckx1982; -@schillebeeckx1989c]

which are appearing in a footnote in the PDF once compiled as:

3. Edward Schillebeeckx, Jezus: Het Verhaal van Een Levende (Bloemendaal: Nelissen, 1974); Edward Schillebeeckx, Gerechtigheid En Liefde: Genade En Bevrijding (Bloemendaal: Nelissen, 1982); Edward Schillebeeckx, Mensen Als Verhaal van God (Baarn: Nelissen, 1989).

I thought that this should be with author's name removed...? Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

I have some more complex references too, which are showing the same problem, but these occur within an extended footnote, which I've created as a footnote in the .md file. If there's any tricks anyone can share on how to fix those (if different), advice welcomed!

Many thanks
