What it does

Written by AI from the README

Fixes casing on selected items from the right-click menu. It turns ALL-CAPS and sentence-case titles into title case, strips SAGE's EXPRESS: label and corrects ALL-CAPS author names. A dialog previews every change first.

Imports from databases like Web of Science often arrive in capitals. Changes are logged to a CSV in the Zotero data folder so they can be reverted. Works on Zotero 9 and 10.
