Checked with the latest development build

  • I made a backup of my libraries before testing the latest development version.
  • I have tested the latest development version and the problem persists

Steps to reproduce the behaviour

  1. Create new Bibliography
  2. Library Properties → Save actions → Enable field formatters
  3. Add Author → Normalize name of persons
  4. Add entry
  5. In BibTeX source, add author = {{Company Name, LLC}},. This is an institutional author and must be brace-protected to avoid interpretation as a name by most styles.
  6. Save Library. Author is now author = {Company Name, LLC},. Expected behavior would be to leave the author alone; instead, the author is now parsed as a name and would be rendered as such.
