  • are AUT capitalized author initials or the actual author name(s)? The latter is possible, the former isn't really, or at least it's not customizable. One such style exists: https://www.zotero.org/styles?q=id:din-1505-2-alphanumeric&format=label
  • Are you submitting to a specific journal or publisher? Can you post a link to a style guide?

    Any “author-date” style will have that general format, though most use parentheses rather than square brackets. It would be easy to modify a style to use brackets, but first provide more details about exactly what formatting you are looking for.

  • Hello, I am late by a few month, but I have the same trouble and would like to know if it is possible to modify the style DIN 1505-2
    if Authors are (Last name- first name) Abcdefg Hij and Zyx Wvu in 2016
    the citation is [ABZY16] which is not natural.
    I would like to have only [ABC16] or [ABCD16] but in any case, i do not want [ABCDERG16]
    Do you think it is possible ? If you do not understand what i mean, you can find an example of what i want here : https://tel.archives-ouvertes.fr/tel-01495450/document
    (sorry it is in french)

    Thank you in advance
