Chicago (notes and bibliography) to MHRA FAQ
What changes between Chicago (notes and bibliography) and MHRA?
MHRA in text: Numbered footnotes with full details at first mention, plus a bibliography. Reference-list formatting differs too, which is why each entry is re-rendered from its real record with the official MHRA style file rather than text-edited.
Why did some references not convert?
A reference only converts when it can be confidently matched to a catalog record. Journal articles match very well; books and web pages without a DOI match less often. Unmatched entries are listed untouched, never guessed at.
Is my reference list stored?
No. The conversion is stateless and pasted text is never logged. Only anonymous match-rate counts are kept.
