Style Error: [geological society of american bulletin]
I am new to Zotero, so I hope my explanation of the problem is clear.
The current format for Geological Society of America Bulletin CSL has the following issues.
For journal articles the CSL code includes the journal issue number which is incorrect.
From CSL
Allen, J.L., 2005, A multi-kilometer pseudotachylyte system as an exhumed record of earthquake rupture geometry at hypocentral depths (Colorado, USA): Tectonophysics, v. 402, no. 1-4, p. 37–54, doi: 10.1016/j.tecto.2004.10.017.
From GSA
Allen, J.L., 2005, A multi-kilometer pseudotachylyte system as an exhumed record of earthquake rupture geometry at hypocentral depths (Colorado, USA): Tectonophysics, v. 402, p. 37–54, doi:10.1016/j.tecto.2004.10.017.
For book citation the CSL does not place the place of publication after the publisher and does not include the number of pages at the end of citation, see below
From CSL
Lin, A., 2008, Fossil Earthquakes: the formation and preservation of pseudotachylytes: Springer, New York.
From GSA
Lin, A., 2008, Fossil Earthquakes: the formation and preservation of pseudotachylytes: New York, Springer, 348 p.
Also the parenthetical citations in the body of the text do not group publications with the same authors together. I have seen other Zotero citations sort them this way.
From CSL
(Lin, 1991; Lin, 1996; Cowan et al., 2003; Rowe et al., 2005; Rowe et al., 2012)
From GSA
(Lin, 1991, 1996; Cowan et al., 2003; Rowe et al., 2005; 2012)
Thanks for your help

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.
Styles should also update automatically within 24hs for Zotero 4.0+
Any further problems please let us know.
Example:
GSA:
North, F.K., 1985, Petroleum geology: Boston, Allen & Unwin, 607 p.
Current style:
North, F.K., 1985, Petroleum geology: Allen & Unwin, Boston.
(Also there are entries in the repository for both The Geological Society of America and GSA Bulletin; both have the same problem with book citation. I'm considering going through the full CSL to check for other errors - if I submit it to the repository, would that make for a third variant, or could it be done as an update to an extant version?)

In an existing document, you may have to switch to a different style and back for the changes to take effect once the style is updated.
