In fact, if you go to Zotero's website and look for supporting documentation, most of your questions will be answered within a few minutes. > The problem is the website from which I retrieve the item.

What is your default bibliography style? Also, I am not sure about how Zotero handles it, but I suspect the capitalization depends on the style that you are using (you can specify the default in the Preferences). But, again, your best recourse for a speedy answer is Zotero's forum (on their Support link).
