First instance of author citation

First instance of author citation

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 965 bytes --]

Hi there, I have a first-world challenge.  In APA styling the first 
instance of citing an author's name or authors' name should list the full 
name (date) and there after only list the last name or lastname et. al. in 
the event of multiple authors. Pandoc does an exceptional job for the later 
case, but not the former. is there any way, a flag or syntax, that I can 
use to have pandoc populate the the full vs. truncated names? I understand 
the processing overhead that this might entail, so a simple answer of No is 
fine, but I thought I'd ask.

These things are controlled by the CSL style.
Are you using --csl apa.sty?  If you're using the default
pandoc style (chicago-author-date.csl), then you may just need
to do that.  If you're getting this result with apa.sty, then
we can look into the details of the style (which can be modified
to get the behavior you want).

Styles can be found here:
