Lots of requests for this; I think this would be most appropriately solved by a Zotero translator.

And https://archive.org/stream/annalsmagazineof8101912lond#page/13/mode/1up does not generate {{cite book}} with page=13, like https://archive.org/details/annalsmagazineof8101912lond does, but without the page number. It insteads gnerates a similar {{cite web}} with |website=wayback.archive.org as above.

This is probably a bug that should be reported upstream to Zotero.

Although part of the problem is the stream page is missing a lot of the metadata.
