Remove commas from between author first initial and last name. Instructions to authors gives these examples: ``` For Journals: Bellini C, Donarini G, Palandini D, Calovo MG, Bellini T, Ramenghi LA, Hennekam RC. 2015. Etiology of N-immune Hydrops Fetalis: An Update. Am J Med Genet Part A 167A: 1082-1088. Books:Cassidy SB, Allanson JE, editors. 2010. Management of Genetic Syndromes, Third Edition, Hoboken, NJ: John Wiley and Sons. Chapter in Book:Battaglia A. 2010. Wolf-Hirschhorn syndrome. In: Cassidy SB, Allanson JE, editors, Management of Genetic Syndromes, Third Edition, Hoboken, NJ: John Wiley and Sons, pp 249-262. ```

@jxchong, this isn't quite right. The "delimiter" attribute on <name/> affects the delimiter between subsequent names. To change the delimiter between "Lastname Initials", you have to change the "sort-separator" attribute value.
That said, which instructions are you looking at, exactly? At http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/journal/10.1002/%28ISSN%291552-4833/homepage/ForAuthors.html (the "documentation" link of this style, for American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A), different examples are given:
For Journals: Thomas, G. H. (1996). High male:female ratio of germ-line mutations: An alternative explanation for postulated gestational lethality in males in X-linked dominant disorders. American Journal of Human Genetics, 58, 1364–1368.
Books:Cassidy SB, Allanson JE, editors. 2010. Management of Genetic Syndromes, Third Edition, Hoboken, NJ: John Wiley and Sons.
Chapter in Book:Battaglia A. 2010. Wolf-Hirschhorn syndrome. In: Cassidy SB, Allanson JE, editors, Management of Genetic Syndromes, Third Edition, Hoboken, NJ: John Wiley and Sons, pp 249-262.
and a recent article from the journal, http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ajmg.a.38220/pdf, uses comma-space in names, at least for journal articles: "Tluczek, A., Orland, K. M., & Cavanagh, L". The same article also uses parentheses around in-text citations, instead of brackets.

Yes that's the correct documentation link/instructions for authors, you have to go to the "References" section to see the mention of brackets instead of parentheses.
The reason this was brought to my attention is because we have a paper currently in review and the editor requested we fix our reference and in-text citation styles to match with the Instructions to Authors and said "please note Wiley has recently changed these." So I'm assuming that recent journal articles are lagging behind and still using the old style since we've been given explicit instructions to change the styling from what is in place now.

Fixed the delimited and sort-separator attributes.
Here's what that link says in the "References" section:
_____ References are cited in text with brackets, not parentheses.
_____ References in bibliography are alphabetized, without numbering.
_____ Every author is specified.
_____ Authors’ name punctuation is limited to commas between authors.
_____ Page numbers include beginning and ending page number (e.g., do not use the 1083-9 convention).
restored delimiter and removed comma from sort-separator
