_dataset.php: detailed contributor information

[nathcast]

ON the right side of the dataset page, have a table to list contributors and how they contributed. Use regex tpo math camelcase with a space.

[nathcast]

code could includetry this: $str = preg_replace('/([a-z])([A-Z])/', "\1 \2", "DataCurator");

it is;

 $strRole = preg_replace('/([a-z])([A-Z])/', '${1} ${2}', $contributor['jobTitle']);
                $strRole = strtolower($strRole);
                $strRole = ucfirst($strRole);

The info we have on a contributor is:

  | {
  | "type": "Person",
  | "Name": "Andrew Macdonald",
  | "givenName": "Andrew",
  | "familyName": "Macdonald",
  | "sameAs": "https://orcid.org/0000-0002-1785-4892",
  | "address": {
  | "type": "PostalAddress",
  | "streetAddress": "Sustainable Agricultural Sciences, Rothamsted Research",
  | "addressLocality": "Harpenden",
  | "addressRegion": "Hertfordshire",
  | "postalCode": "AL5 2JQ",
  | "addressCountry": "United Kingdom"
  | },
  | "affiliation": {
  | "type": "Organization",
  | "name": "Sustainable Agricultural Sciences, Rothamsted Research",
  | "address": ", West Common, Harpenden, Hertfordshire, AL5 2JQ, United Kingdom"
  | }
  | },

so I could include a link to the ORCID page or sort by familyName for example. I made it a list; it could be a table. I could sort by roles.

As we have discussed before 'the roles' attributed to the contributors are very restrictive e.g. Wendy, Melanies etc are listed as Data Collectors. I am not sure they would like that as a named role. Including the Orchid id may help this as the link can be followed to get precise detail on their roles. In your first comment above, when you say on 'the right hand side' do you actually mean the left hand side? Or are you suggesting to make another list on the RHS?

[Perrymas]

Hi Nathalie, I have seen what you have done now - listing the roles of the contributors on the 'RHS'/main body of the web page of the datasets - looks good :) @nathcast

[nathcast]

Some contributors will not have ORCID IDs. The roles here are restricted by the schema.

[Perrymas]

Yes, sure, it will be good to include the Credit's page from current website is so useful - to have a general overview of peoples roles. I will update that with some extra information Wendy Gregory has just sent.

@Perrymas is it worth asking Wendy what they would like to be described as, if you think 'data collector' is not what they want? We could call them 'researcher', though I don't think they think of themselves as that. Any other ideas from the list of possibles?

[mglendining]

Sorry, I know I am not supposed to close this. Not sure how else to send the message.

These are the only two that would apply to them. If we want something else, it would fall out of the Schema. You can be a bit more precise in the package? you can describe in the spreadsheet with more details.

I think we mentioned ' researcher' as an option in the meeting we had with Wendy, but she did not think that was appropriate (nor 'technician'). If we list the techniques they do on the credits page - which I will add soon - that will be useful. Chris Hall and Andy etc are also described as collectors in some datasets. Maybe Wendy and team are actually 'Data Creators' ?

[mglendining]

@Perrymas do you want to check with Wendy what she is happy with Sarah? Give her the options available in Datacite.

[Perrymas]

ok, when i send her the updated credits page I will explain our predicament and clarify what she's prefer :-)
