Here is a way you can add new citation formats to the reftex format:
;; get builtin formats
(setq formats (nth 2 (assoc 'org reftex-cite-format-builtin)))
;; add new format
(setf (nth 2 (assoc 'org reftex-cite-format-builtin))
(append formats '((?W . "textcite:%l")
(?z . "newcite:%l"))))
This does not define the links, but it does add the formats to the reftex
menu.
I have figured out how to add new citation links without alot of cut and
pasted code. I do not use biblatex much though. What are the common
citation formats, and are they mostly written as \citation{label}?
