@anotherelvis That is: The dafault style of the "short names" of bibliographical references.

Supercool videos. How do I format the "short name" of the reference?

In this example, the shortname is replaced with a number because we selected "Number Entries" under "Edit Index/Table".
For APA format:
* Uncheck "Number Entries"
* Set brackets to be parenthesis "( )"
* Remove "shortname" from the bibliography format
* Fill in shortnames as "AuthorLastName, Year" - to make citations look like (Johnson, 2011)
MLA format is a bit more complicated because each citation looks different. We are relaunching the website soon and will have pre-formatted templates.
