1,5 spaced bibliography
Question 1:
I'm using the American Political Science Review citation style (or American Political Science Association, from my understanding it has the complete same structure?).
When I insert bibliography it becomes single space, while it before, and is what I prefer, was inserted as 1,5 spaced.
Question 2:
I have different authors with the same last name. When citing, in shows up in the document like this (C. Scott 2003). How can I avoid Zotero using the first name in the citation?

This is an old discussion that has not been active in a long time. Before commenting here, you should strongly consider starting a new discussion instead. If you think the content of this discussion is still relevant, you can link to it from your new discussion.
If you follow these related instructions on changing Word styles: http://www.zotero.org/support/kb/word_default_font you can probably change that permanently in a document.

If you can document that APSA/APSR wants less disambiguation we can change that on the repository.
I don't know what you would refer to as documentation for less disambiguation. What I can say is that, no one I have spoken to at the faculty prefer to have first name listed in the text, even when there is an overlap with other authors. Is the only way to remove it, to manually edit the citation before publishing?
Maybe it would be possible to publish a citation style that has all the same features but with without the disambiguation?

it's a little technical, but not that hard to follow.
Otherwise, to document this you'd either have to find a passage from the style guide (which I believe is online) or an example from APSR.
