It's off-topic, but getting Wiley on board would help quite a bit with
trimming down the number of independent styles. I never got any
further in their bureaucracy than a single dysfunctional reply:

"Unfortunately, I regret to inform you that we already have our own
way of standardizing and handling journal citation/reference styles.
Nonetheless, we would like to thank you for your offer."

when I asked them whether they use a limited set of citation formats
for their journals. If any of you have good contacts at Wiley, let me
know.
