'Related article' field should read 'Related work' #25

From @matteorichiardi

A general point: The 'Related article' field should read 'Related work'. This is to ensure 1) that books can also be referred to here (this is for instance necessary for book reviews), 2) that more than one article can be inserted.

When we discussed this at the start @matteorichiardi I don't think we discussed all the possibilities. In the IJM kitchen sink XML there is only this comment:

Commentary to Research: <related-article related-article-type="commentary-article" ext-link-type="doi" xlink:href="10.7554/eLife.01236" id="ra1"/>-->

Indicating we discussed linking commentaries to original research. This is in the background XML and drives the linking on the website, it will appear as RELATED TO, see the screenshot: Screenshot 2019-05-07 at 09 36 59

For commentary articles the eLife PDF templates has this: Screenshot 2019-05-07 at 09 39 50

So we add some non-sematic text to the XML and do not display this online:

<boxed-text>
            <p><bold>Related research article</bold> Sinclair LV, Howden AJM, Brenes A, Spinelli L, Hukelmann JL, Macintyre AN, Liu X, Thomson S, Taylor PM, Rathmell JC, Locasale JW,  Lamond AI, Cantrell DA. 2019. Antigen receptor control of methionine metabolism in T cells. <italic>eLife</italic>
                <bold>8</bold>:e44210. doi: <ext-link ext-link-type="uri"
                    xlink:href="http://doi.org/10.7554/eLife.44210"
                >10.7554/eLife.44210</ext-link></p>
        </boxed-text>

@matteorichiardi I think this issue is something to discuss with @Vijayarajmurugesan and Exeter first off, and to provide us with an XML sample so we can ensure what you need works on the website.

Thanks!

I'm not sure I understood this query correctly. My point is simply that if we want to use this field to refer to -say- a book being reviewed, we should perhaps rename it to 'related work'. This would also allow the possibility in standard research articles to link them to more than one article, or even books. Not a big deal though. matteo

@matteorichiardi Ah, OK I think I understand. We cannot change the XML tagging, which is not displayed. If the text is used anywhere for display then that is something you'll need to deal with with Exeter. The basic linking is not displayed in the article, but is used to create links between the articles on the website in the background.

It would be great if you could let me know when you come to articles that should be linked with each other.

Thanks!
