EISS 14 aims to follow the Generic Style Rules for Linguistics (of December 2014), compiled by Martin Haspelmath. A local copy of the Generic Style Rules is also available.

Note that as far as the formatting of references is concerned, the LaTeX template includes the BibLaTeX files biblatex-gl.bbx and gl-authoryear-com.cbx (from the journal Glossa), which aim to follow the Generic Style Rules for the formatting of references.

If you have a question concerning the Generic Style Rules, please don't hesitate to ask.
