APA 7th ed surname in biblio error
I noticed that a number of articles with Chinese authors or authors with non-American name order show up incorrectly in the "Create Bibliography" and "Create Citation" output. Li-Fang Zhang appeared as sole author on an PDF article I referenced yesterday, and the PDF of the article showed Zhang as the surname in the article header. The Zotero auto-generated full citation read out as Li-Fang, Z. rather than Zhang, L. though.
I doubt the metadata tag from the publishers would be incorrect, but it's certainly possible. I make it a point to review all entries and manually correct anything that sounds Asian in origin just to make sure the names are formatted properly, but every other name appears correctly so far. Thoughts? Just keep on keepin' on, I guess?

You can certainly provide details of where the metadata comes from (i.e. typically a URL) and we can take a look, but for names in particular I'm not super optimistic.
