Wikidata:Property proposal/Short DOI
short DOI
[edit]Originally proposed at Wikidata:Property proposal/Creative work
Description | short alias for DOI generated by the ShortDOI service from the DOI foundation |
---|---|
Represents | digital object identifier (Q25670) but we may have to make a new one, sorry all of that is still a bit new to me |
Data type | external identifier (as in Property:P356)-invalid datatype (not in Module:i18n/datatype) |
Template parameter | ShortDOI ? I don't believe it needs to be displayed on Wikidata. |
Domain | exact same as Property:P356 |
Allowed values | See Property:P356 with the 3 regexps, according to DOI Foundation we could use only the one that matches maximum values: (?i)10.\d{4,9}/[-._;()/:A-Z0-9]+ |
Allowed units | none |
Example 1 | 10/aabbe |
Example 2 | High-Resolution Structure of ClpC1-Rufomycin and Ligand Binding Studies Provide a Framework to Design and Optimize Anti-Tuberculosis Leads (Q93121951) : 10/ggcjcz |
Example 3 | Paclitaxel-induced apoptosis in MCF-7 breast-cancer cells (Q38559628) : 10/dv5fth |
Example 4 | Can Invalid Bioactives Undermine Natural Product-Based Drug Discovery? (Q26778522) : 10/f8d4d7 |
Source | [[1]] and [[2]] and [[3]] |
Planned use | matching publications for our project Wikidata:WikiProject_Chemistry/Natural_products |
Number of IDs in source | as many as DOIs, we are talking 230 millions on Wikidata as of 19 November 2020 |
Expected completeness | eventually complete |
Formatter URL | https://doi.org/$1 |
Robot and gadget jobs | YES |
See also | Property:P356 |
Distinct-values constraint | YES |
Wikidata project | Wikidata:WikiProject_Source_MetaData |
Motivation
[edit]https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata_talk:WikiProject_Source_MetaData#Adding_a_ShortDOI_property
I would like to propose adding a ShortDOI property. ShortDOI are used to provide shorter DOIs than things like that: 10.1002/(SICI)1097-0258(19980815/30)17:15/16<1661::AID-SIM968>3.0.CO;2-2
it gets translated to 10/aabbe
They are created by an official DOI API: http://shortdoi.org/
And can be used on https://doi.org interchangeably with DOIs on all their services and will always refer to what the original DOI points to.
I contacted the DOI foundation to make sure about the format as they didn't specify it clearly in their documentation. The proposed format is managing all the ones I've seen so far.
The other solution would be to have two statements with a DOI property, but we would see that as messier as we wouldn't know which one is the short doi unless using a qualifier.
Hope it makes sense.

Discussion
[edit]- What's the vlaue of having short DOI's in addition to the other dois? As far as the examples go please add the items where those values would be placed. ChristianKl ❪✉❫ 21:48, 4 January 2021 (UTC)
- Articles can be refered as both short DOI and normal DOIs, meaning we could be given short DOIs. Bjonnh (talk) 15:25, 6 January 2021 (UTC)
- See Wikidata:Property proposal/WMF short URL, Wikidata:Property proposal/New York Times short URL, Wikidata:Property proposal/The Guardian article ID (and PFD of this property).--GZWDer (talk) 14:59, 5 January 2021 (UTC)
Kommentar DOI is a costly redirect service. Do we really need to store several variations of it? --- Jura 15:20, 5 January 2021 (UTC)
- What do you mean by costly? Bjonnh (talk) 15:25, 6 January 2021 (UTC)
- It's non free redirect service. Citing the QID is preferable. --- Jura 15:32, 22 January 2021 (UTC)

Support Either a new property or just use DOI (P356) since the formatter is the same. Maybe with qualifier object of statement has role (P3831) and a new item for "short DOI"? Either way it would be very useful to have these recorded in Wikidata for correlation for example with OpenRefine (the long DOI's can be hard to reconcile!)

- I talked to the DOI foundation yesterday, the format is expected to be the same as DOI (even if internally they only use letters and numbers for now). For them, it is treated as a DOI synonym. So maybe being able to have multiple DOI by article could work. Bjonnh (talk) 15:25, 6 January 2021 (UTC)
- DOI (P356) is meant to be canonical so I will not support using this for short DOI.--GZWDer (talk) 21:29, 21 January 2021 (UTC)
