Release checklist

ethanrd commented 9 months ago

I have tested this on a personal test repo (testCitation) if anyone wants to see what it looks like. See the "Cite this repository" pull down on right side of main repo page.

I kept it very minimal to not duplicate too much information. The CFF spec allows for lots of other information but I didn't find much that showed up in the automated citation output. I only added the first few authors. I didn't find an "et al" kind of feature so added "the CF Community" as the final author.

Here's the resulting citation in APA

Eaton, B., Gregory, J., Drach, B., Taylor, K., Hankin, S., & CF Community. NetCDF Climate and Forecast (CF) Metadata Conventions. https://doi.org/10.0000/00000

and in BibTeX

@misc{Eaton_NetCDF_Climate_and, author = {Eaton, Brian and Gregory, Jonathan and Drach, Bob and Taylor, Karl and Hankin, Steve and {CF Community}}, doi = {10.0000/00000}, title = {{NetCDF Climate and Forecast (CF) Metadata Conventions}}, url = {https://cfconventions.org} }

Waiting for CF DOI to be created before updating the CITATION.cff file and changing this PR from "Draft" to "Ready to review".
