Thanks for your submission. Can you go through our requirements and add the missing documentation link?
Also bring the actual name of the style in line with our conventions and add a proper name to the author. Thank you.

Just a quick question: which respond to a (auto-attached by the bot) "waiting-for-response-from-contributor" label is expected? Just another commit (or any other form of "response"?). Thx.

What's your take here in regards to the name of the style?
For me the "Fachhochschule FH..." is an unnecessary duplication.
Their website: https://www.fh-joanneum.at/

I'm thinking "Fachhochschule Johanneum - Institute of Software Design and Security"

Do we need the "Harvard"? Looks like there's only one style. The short title could include IIT and FH, so FH Johanneum IIT (or so).

@internettechnik would that work for you?

@adam3smith

Firstly, we thought including the base style name is expected for the title of university styles (... as explained for the title selection in the Requirements document at https://github.com/citation-style-language/styles/blob/master/STYLE_REQUIREMENTS.md: "...Institutional styles may also mention the name of a style (e.g. "Vancouver" or "APA") in the title..."
We are happy to drop that part (about "Harvard" style) :)

Secondly, we are open to change the name. Just two important aspects:
=> It is JOANNEUM (without "h")
=> Everyone (in Austria/Styria) knows our university as "FH JOANNEUM". Maybe we better select FH instead of Fachhochschule (later term is even sometimes even mistakenly referred as Fachschule, which is quite an other organisation)

Summary
What about changing the style to following name: "FH JOANNEUM - Institute of Software Design and Security"

Yes, that sounds good to me.
The "Harvard" part makes more sense if you have several styles. If you only have the one that's fine.

Thank you for improving the code. (I did not understand all the details - I have to admit I based the style on another template and adapted only a few things to our needs) :)

@internettechnik
I'm a bit confused by this style. It would be recommended to add a book chapter example.
I completely reworked the style to simplify it, make it more robust and also easier to maintain. please check and let me know it all looks good.
Besides that, on your guidelines there are 2 issues I want to point out:
image

There is no single on Harvard citation style like you say. There are hundreds and Harvard just means "author-date". You could better say on the Harvard style by Imperial College London since that is the style you based yours on.
Also, I would change he link to https://www.zotero.org/styles as that's where the style will be published. (once it's merged you can also use a direct link)
