(note that "Jeffrey T. Williams" is the first-listed author; "Michael Smith" is seventh, and last) which incudes the HTML source code:

to Zotero using the COinS importer. I then exported from Zotero as a Wikipedia template, resulting in this wiki-code:

{{Cite journal| doi = 10.1371/JOURNAL.PONE.0010676| volume = 5| issue = 5| last1 = Tassell| first1 = James L. Van| last2 = Williams| first2 = Jeffrey T.| last3 = Carpenter| first3 = Kent E.| last4 = Smith| first4 = Michael| last5 = Hoetjes| first5 = Paul| last6 = Etnoyer| first6 = Peter| last7 = Toller| first7 = Wes| title = Biodiversity Assessment of the Fishes of Saba Bank Atoll, Netherlands Antilles| journal = PLOS ONE| date = 2010-05-21}}

Note that in both the HTML markup and the output template the authors appear to be sorted alphabetically by first name:

  1. James L. Van
  2. Jeffrey T.
  3. Kent E.
  4. Michael
  5. Paul
  6. Peter
