Year only citation

Year only citation

[Ben Moon]

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1392 bytes --]

I often write species names and these are customarily formatted either as '*Genus 
species* Author, Year' or '*Genus species* (Author, Year)' if the species 
name has been changed. This can be different to the prevailing citation 
format (e.g. '(Author Year)' [without comma] for journals such as 
Palaeontology 
<https://github.com/citation-style-language/styles/blob/master/palaeontology.csl>, 
or with different numbers of authors included etc).

Is it possible to insert a citation with the year only and without 
parentheses? The main reason for just the year would so I can format the 
authors, comma, and surrounding parentheses (or not) myself, but keep the 
year updated with a year-suffix if that is required.

I would envisage typing something like (modifying the AuthorInText format 
pandoc already has):

*Genus species* AuthorA, AuthorB & Author C, -@cite2021 or
*Genus species* (AuthorA, AuthorB & Author C, -@cite2021)

Any help or suggestions will be appreciated.
