    quick look it seems very similar to Chicago Manual set to en-GB, but I could be wrong.

    No, that one does not look close to me. In addition, if a citation style is off even a little bit, it is still unusable. I'd have to manually enter or revise each citation. So frustrating! Thanks though! Is there anyway for me to enter the citation style I want myself into the Zotero? Why do I have to rely on the generosity of strangers on the internet?

    Thank you! Unfortunately, those instructions far exceed my computer abilities. In addition, they don't include instructions to fix the journal's particular style, such as using "at" for page numbers, "in" for edited volumes, and flipping the first and last name. Here are their instructions:

    If incorporated into the footnotes themselves:

    Jürgen Habermas, Legitimation Crisis, trans. Thomas McCarthy (London: Heinemann, 1976), p. 68.

    Catharine A. MacKinnon, 'Feminism, Marxism, method and the state', Feminist Theory: A Critique of Ideology, ed. N. O. Keohane, M. Z. Rosaldo and B. C. Gelpi (Chicago: University of Chicago Press, 1982), pp. 1-30 at p. 27.

    John Rawls 'Justice as fairness', Philosophical Review, 67 (1958), 164-94 at p. 185.

    (ii) If collected together in a reference list at the end of the article:

    Habermas, Jurgen. 1976. Legitimation Crisis, trans. Thomas McCarthy. London: Heinemann.

    MacKinnon, Catharine A. 1982. Feminism, Marxism, method and the state. Pp. 1-30 in N. O. Keohane, M. Z. Rosaldo and B. C. Gelpi (eds), Feminist Theory: A Critique of Ideology. Chicago: University of Chicago Press.

    Rawls, John. 1958. Justice as Fairness. Philosophical Review, 67, 164-94.

    In footnotes/references, spelling should follow the original while punctuation should conform to the style adopted in the body of the text, being either American (double quotation marks outside closing commas and full stops) or English (single quotation marks inside them).

    For Survey Articles or Debates, option ii (the reference list at the end of the article, together with the corresponding footnote style) is preferred.

    (note that that document links to a visual editor right at the top -- you don't need to edit XML; it's still not trivial, but of course we can only give somewhat generic instructions with some examples)

    Hi @Jdelston

    I've just had a go at this style: https://www.zotero.org/styles?q=id:journal-of-political-philosophy

    If you're still interested in this style, it would be great if you could help with the review of it and let us know if there are any mistakes.
