We are working on some guidelines for internal use, and these are my first thoughts: 1) Look for an "Instructions To Authors" for the journal, and follow the rules there as best you can. 2) If there are ambiguous rules or situations, find examples in that journal that clarify the situation. 3) Try to avoid changing the EndNote Reference Types. Some situations require these changes, such as with Conference Proceedings that require the city of the publisher as well as the city of the conference, but most do not. 4) Be relatively complete, according to the standards of your discipline. If there are instructions for theses and reports, include them as style specifications. If not, and they are very rarely used, you may choose not to include them. 5) Look for the name of a standard list of journal abbreviations. If you have typed them in, include that EndNote Journals file in the package. 5) MAKE A README FILE! This is really important. The contents should include: the citation of the "Instructions To Authors" that you used; the examples you used in #2; any changes you think are required to the Reference Types; the name of the standard journal list; and any other information that applies to this style, such as sorting issues. I hope this is helpful -- I'll post other stuff as I get it.
