We also need to 1) quantify how many PMIDs added in the last year came from a preprint server using the PubMed title field. 2) Need to add a warning for users for every new attempt to add a PMID that is a preprint see mock-up here: https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1qmfqNArfykpCYjwH7w9x0tgfU3XCqLKy/edit#slide=id.g2682b19f92a_0_0
The NLM pilot (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/about/nihpreprints/) for preprints in PubMed seems likely to continue. The GCWG on Oct 9th decided to go ahead with allowing preprints via PMIDs to be added to the GCI.
Also: Retrospectively add a flag to the GCI for any PMIDs added in the past year that are actually preprints, and notify GCEPs if any preprint evidence used in curations has since been published as it may need to be re-curated
@courtneythaxton Does this adequately reflect the new scope of this?
NLM is piloting the assignment of PMIDs for preprints in PubMed. As this was not an intended use of the current PMID features in the VCI and GCI, we need to:
1) Block any new preprint PMIDs from being added to the GCI and VCI 2) Retrospectively add a flag to the VCI and GCI for any PMIDs added in the past year that are actually preprints, and notify GCEPs if any preprint evidence used in curations has since been published as it may need to be re-curated
Note: Eventually, while we will support adding preprints to the VCI/GCI, we will do so via DOIs, not via PMIDs, because there is no guarantee that PMID support for preprints will extend past the NLM pilot phase.
