Why should you pay for this citation style?
- Created by an expert: I have been involved in the official CSL project – on which Zotero, Mendeley and others are based – for over ten years. More about me
- Tested rather than guessed: Free or AI-generated styles often work ‘almost’ – but when it comes to your thesis/dissertation, ‘almost’ costs you marks.
- Cheaper than a proofreading service: Buy it once, use it for every paper – updates included.
Notes about the style
"cf./vgl." is missing?
This can be added in Zotero using the prefix field. To do this, click on the citation in Word and a field will appear to enter the prefix and suffix, as well as the exact page number. See the following guide here.
What are the differences between the four included styles?
- deutsche-zitierweise-scribbr.csl: Langzitate mit Kurztitaten bei Folgezitaten

The line spacing between entries in the bibliography is not correct?
The guidelines provide for single line spacing between entries.
The spacing between entries as well as the indentation at the beginning is already set by style, but can also be set/changed in the Word style sheet ‘Bibliography’ >> Paragraph.
