Upgrade StorageStyle Error: Pontifical Biblical Institute
Hi, I'd like to suggest a couple of improvements to the Pontifical Biblical Institute style.
1) I've recently noticed that the abbreviation "et al." appears in small caps, but it should be in regular type. An example can be found in the first page of this article: https://poj.peeters-leuven.be/content.php?url=article.php&id=3293717&journal_code=BIB. I think this applies everywhere: authors/editors, book/book section/journal article, first mention/subsequent mentions, footnotes/bibliography, etc.
2) According to the official norms (https://www.peeters-leuven.be/pdf/Instructions_Biblica.pdf), book titles should be in italics, but subtitles should be in regular print, and the two should be separated by a period. Maybe this cannot be made automatic in Zotero, as the software does not provide a "Subtitle" field for the relevant item types; but maybe (I don't know) the style can be coded so as to recognize the string ". ", ": " or " : " in titles (period/colon followed by a space; colon preceded by a space in French) and switch to regular print just before the period. This applies to footnotes and bibliography alike. It applies to books (including when mentioned for book sections), but maybe also to the name of certain journals when no abbreviation is used. Finally, it applies to the first mention of a book, while in subsequent mentions it would be ideal for the subtitle to automatically disappear, unless the user manually provides an even shorter "Short title".
Thank you in advance!
