Troubleshooting Zotero references in a document

This video explains a few common problems with Zotero citations and shows my workflow for fixing documents that have Zotero citations.

Workflow:
1. Toggle field shading on to see what comes from Zotero and what is typed manually
2. Refresh citations
2.a. For every manually added citation, make note of the modifications and apply the modification through Zotero
3. Replace manually typed citations with Zotero
4. Locate all duplicated entries in the bibliography
5. Switch to number style (e.g. IEEE)
5.a. Locate duplicated references in text
5.b. Find every reference that did not update and eliminate changed done with citation editor in classic view
6. Switch back to author-year style
6.a. Fix author names
6.b. Fix capitalization
