e.g. https://scholia.toolforge.org/work/Q45340488/export currently looks like this:

do you want to change the app for citations? or do you want to upgrade the version? @Daniel-Mietchen

What we need here is the following:

  1. adapt the export functionality as in https://scholia.toolforge.org/work/Q45340488/export such that we comply as much as possible with the Software Citation Principles, https://doi.org/10.7717/peerj-cs.86 ;
  2. provide the information on export pages (for software and other stuff) in more formats, i.e. beyond the current BibTeX and CITATION.CFF .

For instance, we could look around for ways in which BibTeX can handle software, e.g. as discussed at https://superuser.com/a/900254 , and then implement that:

@software{hadoop,
  author = {{Apache Software Foundation}},
  title = {Hadoop},
  url = {https://hadoop.apache.org},
  version = {0.20.2},
  date = {2010-02-19},
}

Some of this was addressed by #1996 .

Some of the things still to do here, not just for software though:
