Frequently asked questions

I would like to add a free-to-read publisher to the DOI prefix list in Module:Citation/CS1/Configuration: Module:Citation/CS1/Configuration needs the 10.xxxx/... part of the DOI associated with the publisher. All the publications of the publisher must be free-to read. Once that is done, the xxxx part can be added to the list under local function build_free_doi_registrants_table(). Also leave a note at User talk:Citation bot.
I would like to add a free-to-read journal to the DOI prefix list in Module:Citation/CS1/Configuration: Module:Citation/CS1/Configuration needs the 10.xxxx/yyyy part of the DOI associated with the journal. All the articles associated with that DOI pattern must be free-to read. Once that is done, the xxxx/yyyy parts can be added to the list under local extended_registrants_t = { with the format ['XXXX'] = {'YYYY'},. If there are multiple journals with the same DOI prefix, they can be grouped together with the format ['XXXX'] = {'YYYY', 'ZZZZ', '...'},. Also leave a note at User talk:Citation bot.
I would like to add a geo-dead/geo-access URL keyword: Previous discussions have come to the conclusion that this is not workable. Websites change which regions can access them regularly, and these websites are regardless not fundamentally dead.
I would like support for PDF page numbers: The specific page of a specific PDF may change between clients with the same file or files with the same client. Consider using a |chapter= or |quote= instead.
I would like my change done now: Local consensus is that these modules sync from their sandboxes approximately once every 3-6 months. This is due to complexity of changes, the number of transclusions these modules have, and to be sure sufficient consensus exists for a change.
I don't like (identifier) in the links to identifier pages: This is done to differentiate identifier links (... lorem ipsum dolor sit amet.^{<ref>Linden, David van der. (2015) ... doi:10.18352/dze.10126</ref>} ... ) from prose links (... the digital object identifier was introduced in 2000 by ... ) in Special:WhatLinksHere.
