Bibliographic references for concepts #13

Closed epatters closed 5 years ago

epatters commented 5 years ago

Concepts that are esoteric or not entirely standard should include references to the scholarly literature.

Currently I am adding these references as plain text in the description field. We should support a more structured format for references. Options include BibTeX, RIS, Citation Style Language, or a Semantic Web ontology, such as Dublin Core, BIBO, and FRBR. For our purposes, a lightweight approach is preferable.

The related works section of the paper on FaBiO is a good overview of the Semantic Web landscape.

Let's keep this simple. We'll use BibTeX to store the references, because that's what everyone in STEM uses. As described in the pandoc manual, we can use pandoc-citeproc to generate CSL JSON or YAML for consumption by downstream databases and tools.

We're done here. The web frontend and backend still need to be updated (IBM/datascienceontology-frontend#10).
