Definitions for metadata elements?

Is there existing documentation for metadata elements in Zotero, including expected/accepted entries?

I'm not sure what certain elements mean, e.g. "Website Type". What information is this asking for? Also, the default "Date" field. Is it asking for the publication date?
  • Not really, no. We started, but never went very far.
    This, which describes the linking to citation style fields (and describes those) may help: http://aurimasv.github.io/z2csl/typeMap.xml

    Date is the date issued/published, yes, and website type, when used (and it is rarely) is an additional description of the website as desired. That could e.g. be personal website or so. In APA style, say, it'd appear in square brackets after the title.
