I would like to kindly ask you a question concerning the way sources are written in a bibliography. Could you tell me which of the two options is the most correct in both examples?

1) Stevenson, A (ed.). 2010. Oxford Dictionary of English. 3rd ed. Oxford: Oxford University Press.
2) Oxford Dictionary of English. Stevenson, A (ed.). 2010. 3rd ed. Oxford: Oxford University Press.

1) Marr, V (ed.). 2008. The Chambers Dictionary. 11th ed. Edinburgh: Chambers Harrap.

There is single "correct" way. If writing material in connection with academic study or for publication you will have access to the relevant style guidance.

If you know the destination of your material, then you should consult the relevant guidance e.g. that provided by the academic institution (university, college etc).

@Nat093,
We can't answer that question because we don't know what grammatical standards your school or teacher is using.

MLA style guide;
APA Formatting and Style Guide;
The Chicago Manual of Style;
Etc....

Each of the above mentioned style guides have separate and different versions of footnoting, endnotes, and bibliography creation.
