DOI #1

rmzelle · 2011-01-18T03:27:32Z

The "DOI" (DOI) field (mapped to DOI in CSL), currently available for journalArticle and conferencePaper, should be added to all remaining item types.

There are likely to be more item types that are assigned DOIs in practice. It would be helpful to identify these, so documented examples are welcome. See also

How about adding it to every item type? Even the non-published types (manuscript) could be assigned a DOI by an ambitious archive with online repositories.

+1.

The types that are already identified by URIs (webPage, forumPost, blogPost, podcast) should probably never have a DOI, and I'd like to keep the field out of there. I'm also not sure if this is useful for legal types, patents, etc., but I could be convinced.

Feb 7, 2011 · 2011-02-07T06:21:18Z

I can abide keeping it out of webPage, forumPost, blogPost, podcast, and the legal types for now. The next direction to go with identifiers is something more flexible, with defined identifier classes and multiple identifiers per item (a la creators), so those types can get DOIs at that point if necessary.

Although note that WebCite does encourage publishers to assign DOIs to archived versions of web content:

(A fifth way is that WebCite® may have (on request of the cited author/publisher) assigned a DOI to an archived snapshot, so that the link has the format http://dx.doi.org/10.2196/webcite.xx" (where xxx is the hash key of the material in WebCite®). The DOI resolver at dx.doi.org (which is commonly also used to resolve cited journal and book references) would then resolve to a WebCite® page (or an intermediary page pointing to the same work in other archives, to other manifestations such as print or pdf, or - in the case of online preprints - to "final" publications).

simonster · 2011-02-11T20:50:16Z

In light of this, I think it would be okay to the web items as well, although it creates a bit of a mess when one URI refers to a live page and another refers to an archived page.

Jun 10, 2011 · 2011-06-10T12:03:14Z

I've edited the description to reflect that DOI would be added to all item types. This may be over-aggressive, since we still don't have evidence that this could appear for patents and legal cases (except if WebCite is used to archive them).

max1836 · 2013-06-02T15:08:55Z

The DOI should certainly be added for Reports. Government Reports will have a DOI.

adam3smith · 2013-06-02T15:43:49Z

the ticket is for all item types.

rmzelle · 2016-12-30T15:40:59Z

@adam3smith, still think the DOI should be available to all item types? I'm e.g. not aware of any patents with DOIs. I guess this decision might also depend on whether Zotero will allow fields to be rearranged/hidden.

adam3smith · 2016-12-30T17:16:00Z

I think we should go with all item types -- currently no DOIs for patents, but it'd be really nice if there were... so maybe someone will go ahead and do that.

da5nsy · 2019-04-05T16:46:52Z

Just to bump this. It seems as though DOIs are being added for many things now, and that an item having both a DOI and URL can be sensible.
e.g. https://nrc-publications.canada.ca/eng/view/object/?id=8e981414-eadd-4cea-85c6-1579dd8f6181
where presumably the plan is to keep the URL active, but in having a DOI it shows that they're committed to it being hosted somewhere reliably even if domains change.

adam3smith · 2019-04-05T17:01:23Z

No reason to bump this; I don't think there's any disagreement, there just haven't been any field/item changes in Zotero for other reasons.

da5nsy · 2019-04-05T17:23:56Z

Sorry, wasn't meaning to be rude. I just figured since there's been no comments on this thread since 2016 it may have been forgotten about.

adam3smith · 2019-04-05T18:36:23Z

nothing to apologize for. But for most of these tickets, lack of activity doesn't mean they won't get addressed. Generally, anything with the 5.1 milestone is almost certain to be included in the next Zotero version that does handle field updates.

mmoole · 2019-06-02T12:04:16Z

I want to add just a small idea on that, don't know if it makes a lot of sense technically (after reading this): maybe it is an idea to make it analogously to the authors fields (which allow to be multiple of different types):

RefID
- DOI
- PMID
- HDL
- URN
- ARK
- etc... etc...
- maybe one should even move ISBN/ISSN/ISMN here (-> this would also make it easier to include multiple ISBNs as Springer does for digital and printed edition)
- Dimensions ID
- ...

This would allow for adding multiple RefIDs of different type(s) to an item and be open for future extensibility while at the same time consolidate those into a hierarchy.

floriandierickx · 2019-06-20T13:08:19Z

I would like to add here also a strong support of allowing a doi for all types of references. As research gets more and more digital, so are items that get a doi. ResearchGate automatically assigns doi's to items, and also datasets (Zenodo) and figures (Figshare) work with doi's.

- Add DOI to all item types (closes zotero/zotero-bits#1) - Add `citationKey` to all item types (closes zotero/zotero-bits#24) - Add `date` to `podcast` (closes zotero/zotero-bits#2) - Add `ISSN` to additional types (closes zotero/zotero-bits#4) - Add `section` to `journalArticle` (closes zotero/zotero-bits#5) - Add `PMID`, `PMCID`, and `arXiv ID` to `journalArticle` (closes zotero/zotero-bits#10) - Add `originalPlace`, `originalPublisher`, and `originalDate` to `book` and `bookSection` (closes zotero/zotero-bits#13) - Add `priorityDate` to `patent`, mapped to `originalDate` (closes zotero/zotero-bits#76) - Add `partNumber` and `partTitle` to `journalArticle` (closes zotero/zotero-bits#12) - Move `shortTitle` and `language` near the bottom, since most people either won't use them or will use them purely as a technical measure to adjust citation output - Move `libraryCatalog` and `callNumber` to the bottom, above rights, since they never made that much conceptual sense in Zotero (and `libraryCatalog` is mostly just used for the translator name these days)
