JSON citation string concatenation characters and white space #106

The citation string concatenation characters make it difficult to separate the given and surnames of an author.

"citation": "Crosta Xavier, Civel-Mazens Matthieu, Giuseppe Cortese, ( 2021 ) Diatom Based Sea Surface Temperatures Over the Last 40 kyrs in Sediment Core MD11-3353 off Kerguelen Island, Southern Ocean. PANGAEA. https://doi.org/10.1594/PANGAEA.930901, Accessed: 2023-06-20Z"

Would be more ideally formed with a ";" between each author to appear like this: Crosta Xavier; Civel-Mazens Matthieu; Giuseppe Cortese

This would enable me to use a "," show that names are arranged surname, first name: Crosta, Xavier; Civel-Mazens, Matthieu; Giuseppe, Cortese;

Lastly, there is whitespace between the year and parentheses: ( 2021 ) And is it possible to put a colon after the ")" to look like this: "):"

The revised format would look like this: "citation": "Crosta Xavier; Civel-Mazens Matthieu; Giuseppe Cortese (2021): Diatom Based Sea Surface Temperatures Over the Last 40 kyrs in Sediment Core MD11-3353 off Kerguelen Island, Southern Ocean. PANGAEA. https://doi.org/10.1594/PANGAEA.930901, Accessed: 2023-06-20Z"
