Thank you @robelgeda, this is great! I've edited the custom citation to remove the (Bradley et al.\n<YEAR>). because the cite will automatically generate that bit based on what people select for the version ☺️ It'll be live on the site momentarily!

Perhaps you/@larrybradley could point to the software citation station from the Photutils cite page so that people don't have to search Zenodo manually as the docs suggest currently? 🙂
