    <title>CKAN: Ticket #1171: Citation button</title>
    <link>http://localhost/ticket/1171</link>
    <description>&lt;p&gt;
Some sort of citation helper. Something small on the package page that could open-up to provide citations to copy and paste.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Aim: provide some guidance for academics/researchers who are creating knowledge.some guidance for academics/researchers who are creating knowledge.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Use cases:
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;someone wanting to refer to the package metadata in CKAN
&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;someone wanting to refer to the metadata for a resource in CKAN
&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;
We could also add a timestamp, or revision ID in the link, perhaps as an alternative to the 'Accessed on 31/5/11' bit.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
I understand there are various exacting standards for citations, but I would have thought the key thing is to suggest the idea and make it easy access to the key information required for whatever format the user needs.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
wwaites: Some related thoughts on this from opb: &lt;a class="ext-link" href="http://homepages.inf.ed.ac.uk/opb/papers/ssdbm2006.pdf"&gt;&lt;span class="icon"&gt;​&lt;/span&gt;http://homepages.inf.ed.ac.uk/opb/papers/ssdbm2006.pdf&lt;/a&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
timclicks: I'm looking at Dataverse for the first time&lt;a class="missing changeset" title="No default repository defined"&gt;[0]&lt;/a&gt;. It seems very popular in the social sciences. I noticed that there is a recommended citation for each dataset. For example, &lt;a class="missing changeset" title="No default repository defined"&gt;[1]&lt;/a&gt; is has this one: "Targeted Input Programme (TIP) 2000-01", &lt;a class="ext-link" href="http://hdl.handle.net/1902.1/SSC-MWI-TIP2000-01-M1"&gt;&lt;span class="icon"&gt;​&lt;/span&gt;http://hdl.handle.net/1902.1/SSC-MWI-TIP2000-01-M1&lt;/a&gt; V1 [Version]"
&lt;/p&gt;

          &lt;ul&gt;
            &lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;keywords&lt;/strong&gt;
              &lt;em&gt;[0.25d]&lt;/em&gt; removed
            &lt;/li&gt;
            &lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;owner&lt;/strong&gt;
              set to &lt;em&gt;mark.wainwright&lt;/em&gt;
            &lt;/li&gt;
            &lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;status&lt;/strong&gt;
                changed from &lt;em&gt;new&lt;/em&gt; to &lt;em&gt;assigned&lt;/em&gt;
            &lt;/li&gt;
            &lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;milestone&lt;/strong&gt;
                changed from &lt;em&gt;ckan-backlog&lt;/em&gt; to &lt;em&gt;ckan 2.0&lt;/em&gt;
            &lt;/li&gt;
          &lt;/ul&gt;
        &lt;p&gt;
I have implemented this on the datahub, but this change likely needs to be made to CKAN core. Probably as part of 2.0.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
The format on tdh is currently:
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
${TITLE}. ${AUTHOR}.
Retrieved ${UTC time}.
${DATASET LINK}
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Best discuss and agree on what format should be supported. Mark, I've assigned this to you as it is tagged academia ;)
&lt;/p&gt;
