Harvard style for British journals
Hi folks, This comment is more for the developers: "Harvard" style in Zotero is the American version; there are multiple Harvard styles, and it would be very helpful to be able to choose the British version which omits the "p. " in in-text citation. So it would look like this: (Tully, 1999, 171). And then in the bibliography: Tully, J. (1999) "The agonic freedom of citizens', Economy and Society [italicized] 28(2): 161-182. This is widely used in social science journals in the UK. I suppose it's possible this style has another name I'm not aware of that you do support; if this is the case please let me know ASAP so I can start using it immediately!
I have an (almost) similar problem. In Denmark (Aarhus) we use the Harvard method that you describe, only the citation should be with a colon: (Tully, 1999: 171). The "Harvard reference format 7" comes close, but has a "S." after the colon. Did you find a solution to yours, and did you by any chance stumble upon a Harvard style that would suit me?

I found the "S." and deleted it in the line:
<text variable="locator" prefix="S. "/>
still it appears when having multiple citations? And there seems to be a space to much between the colon and the pagenumber?
Also I need to change the biliography, so that the journal title is in italic (and without the brackets and the "In:", but I found those myself ;-)). Do you know the line?
<group delimiter=": ">
into<group delimiter=", ">
<text macro="author-short"/>
<text macro="year-date"/>
</group>
<group>
<text variable="locator" prefix="S. "/>
</group>
</group>
<group delimiter=":">
<group delimiter=", ">
<text macro="author-short"/>
<text macro="year-date"/>
</group>
<text variable="locator"/>
</group>
For the title, add "font-style="italic"" to the second appearance of the title text variable in the title-macro (currently only book titles are italicized), which is located between the else-tags:
<macro name="title">
<choose>
<if type="book">
<text variable="title" font-style="italic"/>
</if>
<else>
<text variable="title" prefix="„" suffix="“"/>
</else>
</choose>
</macro>
<macro name="author-short">
<names variable="author" delimiter="; ">
<name form="short" delimiter=", " initialize-with=". " delimiter-precedes-last="always" />
<substitute>
but it's not enough to replace the comma with a &...?
"and - set to either symbol to use & or text to use the word “and” to combine authors."
and look at the example given.
