Also, publication place, as pointed out by @lightgivener
Same thing goes for creators other than "author" (e.g. "editor").
The OpenCitations bot for Wikidata solves this by adding published in statements with unknown object value and the name of the publisher as a stated as qualifier.
Transcribing @rdmpage comments about this:
"Can I make a plea for NOT doing this. I don't think there is any real justification for not linking directly to the publication using P1433. Sources such as CrossRef and PubMed provide P236 and these can be used to map to Wikidata items for publications. ISSNs will also often be in people's Zotero libraries. Not link P1433 to Wikidata items makes work for others, and potentially impacts our ability to avoid adding duplicate references for articles that lack well known identifiers such as P356."
Wikidata.create
should (1) support disambiguating author name strings by fetching ORCIDs from Crossref using the item's DOI, and (2) support "published in" statements by fetching QID for item's "publication" field.This should be done from the QuickStatements export translator itself (UB-Mannheim/zotkat#94) or by
Wikidata.create
method, after the QuickStatements export translator has returned.Refer to discussion here.
