Creation of new cite-style

Hey there,
I am currently writing my masters thesis with zotero but unfortunately the exact Harvard style, which my university wants me to use, does not exist in Zotero Style Repository.

It is close to Emerald - Harvard but slightly different. See below my guidelines:

- Use short citations (Harvard system); i. e. provide sources in the text (do not use footnotes!) At the end of the quote: Last name of the author(s) (no first name, no evidence of a collective work at this location), year, precise page number, e. g. (Kreutzer, 2010, p. 4-9).
· Where two or three authors are concerned, they are to be separated by slashes, e. g.
(Kreutzer/Merkle, 2009, p. 4-9).
· Where more than three authors are concerned, only the first author is needed, following “et al.”, e. g. (Boltz et al., 2010, p. 11-15).
· Should an author have more publications within the same year, they should be alphabetically distinguished and sorted accordingly in the bibliography, e. g. (Baumgarth, 2010a, p. 15-25).


- Documentation of used books, newspapers and magazines in the bibliography
· Details of books: name, abbreviation of the first name, year in brackets, title, edition, place of publication, year.
