Citation metadata?

tefkah opened this issue · 0 comments

Hi! I've been exploring Manifold as an alternative hosting solution to our current platform, and I was wondering:

Is there any way to have richer citation specific metadata in the <header>?

I only see the basic og:description fields, is there maybe any option to help generate e.g. dc:... metadata fields to help with indexing by Scholar and ingestion by citation managers?

As a comparison here's what PubPub (our current solution) generates vs Manifold. This is just meant as an illustration, I'm very new to manifold and I might have misconfigured something or not looking at the right thing!

If there isn't anyway natively to generate this metadata, is there perhaps a way to extend Manifolds functionality? I feel like I remember there being some sort of extension api when looking at the docs a couple of months ago but I can't seem to find it.

I hope something like this is possible because I would much prefer to start using Manifold, but not having access to this kind of metadata is a hard(ish) requirement from the client.

Not ideal here either, not a lot of metadata.

(truncated to just the semi-relevant stuff)

In a systematic way, this book helps you to gain insight into, and subsequently eliminate, the most important reasoning errors that we all tend to make. It also helps you to debunk weak and fallacious arguments and unreliable information.

In addition to understanding what critical and scientific thinking entails, you will learn more about what makes science reliable. In times of skepticism regarding science, where (sometimes dangerous) pseudoscientific and conspiracy theories run rampant, this is particularly important.

Critical thinking is not a matter of intellectual preference or even self-interest (although one certainly benefits from thinking critically). It is first and foremost a matter of moral and social responsibility. Better thinking leads to a better world. With this book I hope to contribute to that important goal and you, dear student or reader, can do the same!” - Michael Vlerick"
