So I've attached some screenshots in case it helps. You can see that the 
marginnote contains only the [linked_item_number] of the citation, the rest 
is missing. Here's the filter I used:

function Cite(el)
  marginnote = pandoc.Span(el.content)
  marginnote.classes[1] = 'marginnote'
  return {pandoc.Span(el.content), marginnote}
end
