The style is written for and tested in Zotero, but may also work in Mendeley though not in Endnote.
The style is based on Julian Onions' "Chicago Manual of Style 16th edition (full note)"
This is an early version of the style, created for my own needs. Aspects of the style guide are most probably not implemented, and errors should be expected.
- Locate your Zotero directory, by clicking "Show Data Directory" in Zotero/preferences/advanced/Files and Folders/
- For more details, see this guide
- In the Zotero directory, open the "styles" folder, and save the CSL file (click save as to download raw file). Now restart Zotero.
The main challenge of the style guide is implementing a mix of features CSL by default assumes to be uniform: the style guide calls for British date formatting (3 July 2014), and German quotation marks, while the style as a whole is based on the American Chicago style.
- Made GB locale for date formatting
- Changed "Accessed" to "as of" for date of accessing URL resources
- Added URL and date of access for newspaper articles and reports, if these are included
- Modified quotation marks (likely buggy) to match the German standard, e.g. : „RT Editor to Head News Agency,“
- Added punctuation inside quotation marks, as example above
- Changed volume and issue number to format volume:issue
