Chinese names in APA
Hi,
I have an issue where the initials for Chinese and Korean names are not displaying correctly in citations. The author is Kim Young Sik, and Ive captured the name with Kim in the lastname field and Young Sik in the first name field. The citation comes out as (Y.S. Kim, 2017)... Every APA article ive found says it should be (Kim, 2017).
How do I get this to display correctly without eliminating the initials?

adamsmithI don't think this has anything to do with Chinese. You're just seeing https://www.zotero.org/support/kb/given_name_disambiguation
