Gb7714-87 Endnote | UPDATED ✭ |

GB/T 7714-1987 stipulated specific rules for multi-author works. In English papers, "et al." is standard; in Chinese papers, "等" is required. Early versions of EndNote lacked context-sensitive language switching. If a user entered Chinese author names but the EndNote style was set to English defaults, the bibliography would incorrectly append "et al." to Chinese names (e.g., 张三 等 et al. ). Creating a compliant GB/T 7714-1987 style required users to manually edit the "Editor Lists" and "Author Lists" settings within EndNote to force the substitution of "et al." with "等" for Chinese entries.

Tip : Some users prefer using a customized GitHub version for more modern compatibility if the 87 version feels too rigid.
