Kirsten,
I have a problem in answering your question, this is probably because my
intention in reports is not to write literature. which may mean that I do
not see "awkward results". The other factor is that my main output is
towards my website and I go by what it looks like in that.
So, my priorities for sources are, accuracy, clarity and presentation in
that order. It also follows that I do not recognise supposed
"Standards"which, in my view, tend to obfuscate rather than clarify.
Therefore, in answer, the best I think I can do is to suggest you take a
look at a page on my website at URL
http://myweb.tiscali.co.uk/fergys/509.html. I have picked this one because
it has one of the highest number of sources and is most likely to be
affected by repetitions and duplications. You may also find it helpful to
have a bit of a look around to see how, in general, events and sources link
together. If you then have points which you wish to make please come back.

Gail:
I've read your other posts regarding source formatting but didn't fully
appreciate the dilemma until I began to consider grouping some of my own
sources under generic headings. That seems to be where the citation
format
difficulty crops up, so now I feel your pain.
And Ron:
I found lots of sourcing discussions in the archives, but none that
addressed the grouping vs. unique Master Source question. I do like your
source grouping approach, but do you have a way around the awkward result
in
printed source citations or do you just live with it?
