Re: How to represent circa and BCE in yaml?

["'Nick Bart' via pandoc-discuss" <pandoc-discuss-/JYPxA39Uh5TLH3MbocFFw@public.gmane.org>]

P.S.:

While ISO8601 (and, e.g., biblatex) treat “circa” and “uncertain” as distinct concepts, CSL conflates them (“Approximate dates test “true” for the is-uncertain-date conditional”, http://docs.citationstyles.org/en/1.0.1/specification.html#approximate-dates).

And CMOS 17e, 14.145, “No date of publication” recommends:

“Edinburgh, [1750?]” or “Edinburgh, n.d., ca. 1750”

... so the behaviour of chicago-fullnote-bibliography.csl can’t really be described as a bug (though I’m not happy with this either).
