New AMA format
The new 11th edition of the AMA Manual of Style is out and includes significant changes. Is there an update proposed for Zotero?

Thanks
Does this include ALL the changes needed? https://www.amamanualofstyle.com/fileasset/AMAMOS/aaaAMWA presentation Nov 2019 FULL.pdf
If so I can certainly start working on it.
I had a look. The only differences that I see and that are possible with CSL are:
- remove publisher-place for books
- put URL for websites at end and remove dot at end
- format blogs/posts (e.g. Twitter) like websites
- (add DOI with no dot at the end. We already had that)
- for journal articles without volume+page and with DOI or URL: add "Published online date" (for datasets, we cannot make a difference with "published" or "deposited" as far as I know if both items are saved as article-journal)
I edited the current style to mirror that. Check it out.
Right click, save as, and install in Zotero:

(note that this still will be overwritten the next time Zotero is updated as the ID is already used by AMA10th)
