If your work has two editors instead of two authors, insert the names of the editors into the place where the authors' names are now, followed by a comma and the word "eds." without the quotation marks.
For works by two authors, list both in the bibliography and in a note.
For three to six authors/editors, list all names in the bibliography, but only list the first author followed by "et al." in the notes with with no intervening comma (e.g., Garrett-Petts, et al.)
For more than seven authors/editors, list the first three in the bibliography, followed by "et al." But, in the notes, only list the first author followed by et al. with no intervening comma.
