Plugin specific documentation
=============================
Plugins provide their own individual plugin specific YAML configurations,
The element ``.bst`` files can specify plugin specific configuration in
the :ref:`config section <format_config>`, while sources declared on a
given element specify their plugin specific configuration directly
:ref:`in their source declarations <format_sources>`.
