Contributor with no first or middle name results in incorrect processing (e.g., APA format)

When you add a contributor, in exceptional cases, the author only has a name, no "First name" or no "Last name". "Last name" is a mandatory field in Bibcite. So when this case happens to me I put the name in mandatory field "Last name". Examples:

Kalidasa, Muhamad, Bansky, Anonymous, etc.

When APA presentations are listed you get this:

Mahoma,. (1954). El Koran (2a. ed., p. 868). Madrid: Aguilar.

After Muhammad prints a comma and then a period, when there should only be one period. Can this be solved in any way?

Thank you.
