Making style available to download considering three variations

cadudesun
Hi,

I intend to make a custom style available at:

https://github.com/citation-style-language/styles/wiki/Submitting-Styles

I am developing three variations of this style:

- ABNT style (short authorship)=> SCOTT, John Lewis.
- ABNT style (long authorship)=> SCOTT, J. L.
- ABNT style (numbered)=> when citing numbering is used (such as IEEE style).

Could I submit these three variations at github, in order of being possible to download all of them?

Thanks!

    yes.
    We'd be interested to know how they differ from existing ABNT styles.

    Follows the most important changes (in relation to http://www.zotero.org/styles/abnt which was the based style):

    - The mentioned three style variations in order to provide flexibility and to fit more user's needs.
    - Items=> Thesis, Conference Paper, Bill and Book Section were adjusted in some details.
    - Item=> Newspaper Article was customized (before it had same treatment as Journal Article).
    - Items=> Report + Dictionary Entry + Encyclopedia Article were added.
    - Rules changed=>: et-al-use-first="1" / entry-spacing="1" / key macro="issued-year" / demote-non-dropping-particle="never"
    - Others=> Authorship (Ed.) was changed to (Org.) since it is most common in Brazil / Authorship Translator was added to reference items / URLs + Accessed (when used) appears in all items when bibliography is created / Highlighting in reference items is "italic", instead of "bold" / month abbreviation list was adjusted.
    Maybe other "bells and whistles" I haven't remembered just now...

    Hi,
    I am almost concluding the styles to make them available at Zotero repository.
    Just a question: since a style is hosted at Zotero repository, is the upgrade to a "new version" easy and fast to be done?
    I mean, after making available the style to our user community, it is expected some people will ask for fine adjustments (or not!)...

    Very easy.
