Style Error: Zeitschrift für Theologie und Kirche (Deutsch)

Hello,

the german style "Zeitschrift für Theologie und Kirche (Deutsch)" differs in some details from the guidelines of the journal. You can find them here: https://www.mohrsiebeck.com/fileadmin/user_upload/Service/Autoren/Richtlinien/2022/Richtlinien_2022.pdf

The differences are in the following:
- The stylesheet shows Englisch titles in title cases. The Zotero Documentation explains that - if necessary - Zotero transfers the sentence cases from the title field into title cases for the citation: https://www.zotero.org/support/kb/sentence_casing
It seems that this might not work at the moment for this style.

- The stylesheet recommends the use of journal abbreviations, but Zotero shows the whole journal title instead of the short title.

- At the end of every note the stylesheet sets a period that doesn't show up with Zotero.

- Authors, editors etc.: They are in small capitals. If there are more than three of them, the abreviation "u.a." should not be in small capitals.

- Journal articles: One comma between journal title and volume doesn't fit in.

- Book chapter: There are differences in the citation of the book title and editor and Zotero doesn't show the pages of the article.
The guideline says: K. RAHNER, Erfahrungen eines katholischen Theologen (in: K. LEHMANN [Hg.], Vor dem Geheimnis Gottes den Menschen verstehen. Karl Rahner zum 80. Geburtstag [Schriftenreihe der Katholischen Akademie der Erzdiözese Freiburg], 1984, 105–119), 109.
Zotero says: K. RAHNER, Erfahrungen eines katholischen Theologen (in: Vor dem Geheimnis Gottes den Menschen verstehen. Karl Rahner zum 80. Geburtstag, hg. von K. LEHMANN [Schriftenreihe der Katholischen Akademie der Erzdiözese Freiburg], 1984), 109

I'm very thankful for help and - if my observations are correct - an adjustment of the style.

Kind regards
Hannah
