Create Zotero tutorial

[NeuroShepherd]

Create a version 1.0 Zotero walk-through tutorial for LMU community and beyond. Include the following:

1. General citation info including some notes on .csl and BibTex
2. Downloading Zotero and the web browser extensions
3. Integrations with Word
4. Integrations with RStudio and RMarkdown/Quarto

I have a project with some colleagues where we collaborate on a paper project over github with RMarkdown / Quarto. We use the following setup:

• We have created a Zotero group (https://www.zotero.org/groups/) where everybody can add references remotely (personally, I always add new papers to zotero via doi by using the "add by identifier" magic wand button in the zotero app)
• We use the Better BibTeX for Zotero plugin (https://retorque.re/zotero-better-bibtex/) and agree to always use the default citation keys used by the plugin (so that everybody can add references in Rmarkdown / Quarto that will work for everybody even if the bibfile is not synced at the moment)
• As an author that wants to knit the final paper, I locally export the zotero bibliography of the shared Zotero group. I can either manually update the bibfile frequently or chose the "Keep updated" option (https://retorque.re/zotero-better-bibtex/exporting/auto/) to avoid having to redo the export whenever references are added to the zotero group.
• We add the bibfile to git and commit new versions whenever changes are triggered by adding new references to the zotero group bibliography.

Additional notes:

• clarify why people need to download *.csl files and declare to use them in the yaml header of Quarto/Rmd documents. (e.g. over 10,000 *.csl formats found on Zotero: https://www.zotero.org/styles)
• There is an easy Insert -> Citation button in the Visual editor for RStudio (but this does not exist for the Source editor, oddly.). This will automatically create/update references.bib
• explain that users can, but don't need to, add custom tags to content they cite. this is mostly for convenience
• can search by DOI, PubMed, and some other sources directly within the Insert pane
• Need at least RStudio v1.4 for the above features
• Include some highlights on Pandoc citation syntax: https://pandoc.org/MANUAL.html#citation-syntax
• also use Pandoc info on citations in general: https://pandoc.org/MANUAL.html#citations
• Potentially explain how to remove unused references from the bibliography.bib file automatically, but this isn't so important as it just ends up being a bit of unused text.
• link out to the Posit blogpost: https://posit.co/blog/rstudio-1-4-preview-citations/

Closing this original issue, but Florian's suggestions have been moved to #26
