This issue hasn't seen any activity in the past 30 days. It will be automatically closed if no further activity occurs in the next two weeks.

@adam3smith – In jgm/pandoc-citeproc#45 (comment) you said, “Chicago has so many moving parts that it always takes a bit longer to fix, but shouldn't be too hard here.” – Your work’s much appreciated, and I have no complaints at all about having to wait some time …

… but I do have my doubts whether the new stale bot indiscriminately closing issues after 30 days of inactivity is such a good idea – it seems to kind of defeat the actual purpose of an issue tracker.

We can exempt certain tickets from being automatically closed.

We added the bot to help us manage tickets for style submissions. The volume of these tickets is quite high, and we don't always have the time to respond right away. We also often have to wait to hear back from the contributors.

Hopefully the bot will help us in responding more timely to such tickets, while automating the process of style submission tickets that need to be closed because the contributor doesn't provide all the necessary information we need to accept a style.

Any suggestions to improve our workflow are always welcome, though.

Great this is being dealt with. However, it seems that with the latest fixes to chicago-fullnote-bibliography.csl, event and event-place are omitted from the notes (they used to be included previously; see jgm/pandoc-citeproc#45 (comment)).

CMOS (17e, 14.217) quite clearly does call for including this information in notes:

1. David G. Harper, “The Several Discoveries of the Ciliary Muscle” (Power­Point presentation, 25th Anniversary of the Cogan Ophthalmic History Society, Bethesda, MD, March 31,2012).

2. Viviana Hong, “Censorship in Children’s Literature during Argentina’s Dirty War (1976-1983)” (lecture, University of Chicago, Chicago, IL, April 30, 2015).

@njbart Thanks -- yes, that's not right. Could you take a look at and do some tests on your end on this version:
