This pitch covers making sure that citations can flow easily in and out of TaxonWorks. It will do this in three ways:
- Finding an existing data model which can hold information citations with a standard format for representing it.
- Possibly wikipedia:BibTeX
- Possibly http://bibliontology.com/
- Writing code to read this in and out in Ruby, possibly just using a standard library [1].
- Writing code to resolve microcitations. A working example of this has been created by Rod Page that links generic names from Nomenclator Zoologicus with references from the Biodiversity Heritage Library.
- Micro-citations should be differentiated from verbatim references. A micro-citation is just an author and date (as seen in a full taxon name). A verbatim reference is the full reference as it appears in documentation that hasn't be broken into normalized pieces yet. Both versions need to be tracked and searchable. We also need a way to get a listing out of TW of both versions, so they can be normalized into full sources.
- Lists of journals.
- BHL API to convert BHL URLs into references
- Finding out more about a particular citation
- Getting abstract, keywords from PubMed
- Pulling in citation from BHL
- ImpactStory information
- Designing a user interface to make it easy to resolve microcitations
- Autocompletion
- Journal name identification
- Searching on Google Scholar/Wikipedia for books/authors

Terms
- Citation: An individual, unnormalized use of a source.
- Source: Something you want to credit in providing that data.
- A person can be a source.
- TW needs sources to be private or public.
- Global source: a common pool of sources. These should be published and non-private.
Members
- Mike Maehr
- Beth Frank
- Gaurav Vaidya
Datasets we can play with
- ITIS
- GNUB
- UCD
Input/output formats
- BibTeX
- RIS?
URLs and identifiers of taxonomic significance
It should be noted that there will be multiple identifiers associated with a single source.
- ISBN/ISSN
- BHL URLs
- PubMed ID/URLs
- DOI ID/URLs
- Handle ID/URLs?
- Mendeley/Zotero/EndNote ID/URLs
APIs available
- The BHL API can be used to get bibliographic information on BHL pages and publications.
- The Mendeley API can be used to get abstract, keywords, and search.
