APA formatting with Word plugin
As per the request of a commenter on my blog, I'd like to point out the following issues I had when using the Zotero plugin for Word 2007 on Windows XP:
When formatting the bibliography in APA style, Zotero consistently included the number of pages for each reference, which is considered superfluous in APA style. In one instance, a reference also included the following unnecessary information: "doi:Article." For one book that had no author but two editors, Zotero did not include any author or editor information.
Ideally, it would also be helpful if Zotero could include the following, when appropriate, since it is considered standard to APA style: “Retrieved September 15, 2008, from Academic Search Premier database.”

https://www.zotero.org/trac/ticket/1171 Is this the same as this?
If not, can you elaborate (e.g. at least give an example of the citation info; also the way the citation is formatted & the way that you think it should be formatted if it isn't extra work)? Thanks in advance. I am unable to re-produce this. Can you please provide steps to do so? Beaten to death, in this thread.
Title (Year). . Place.
When only these are listed (eg. in a bill/hearing); the extra dot shouldn't be there...
