@evalieungh, there's a suggestion from @dagendresen that you add the project information into wikidata, and then add that project information in the Additional Identifiers section of the EML metadata. It's really lame that we can't do better! If you don't want to have one project more prominent than the other, you could also describe both projects in the same field. Like, in the title put: Dynamic Distribution Modelling Project & ARKO Project, and in the description you could describe both projects... Sorry, not ideal. @vidarbakken @MichalTorma @dagendresen might have other suggestions.
I think adding it on wikidata would be too much hassle in this case, since I wasn't involved in the original project. Since I'm not an owner/author of that project, it would be strange to add it to wikidata. I guess adding it to the same fields makes the most sense, even though it's a bit hacky!
If segments of your dataset records have different EML metadata properties, splitting them into different datasets is probably recommended. And rather link the two datasets together?
You could consider registering your different projects in OSF or in Cristin or similar. I was just mentioning Wikidata because it provides so nice machine-readable data. But best practice would be to have a primary source different from Wikidata, however, Wikidata is less strict here than Wikipedia where you in principle always need a propper source for every fact you add.
@evalieungh one could also simply add an EML bibliographic reference to the original ARKO project?
Late to the conversation but https://github.com/NCEAS/eml/issues/361 It's still an open issue and I am aware that GBIF is using a different version of eml.
We also have similar issue! Good to know about the solutions mentioned here! Thanks a lot!
I'm filling in metadata for a data set, but it seems like I can't add additional projects under Project Data.
The data set was originally created in a project called ARKO, and then I have re-visited the locations in my PhD project later. It would be nice if I could add both of these projects to give proper credit to the first year of data collection.
