David Shotton suggests, that we add a CC0 licence to refbank, so machines from Wikicite can harvest the references automatically.

How and where do we have to add the CC licences? @tcatapano any idea?

tcatapano commented 7 years ago

Probably on any datasets provided by Refbank.

I generated this from the CC0 chooser (https://creativecommons.org/choose/zero/). We could perhaps change "Refbank" to "Refbank data" or some such. I'm sure Puneet knows way more about this than me:

The license URI is: http://creativecommons.org/publicdomain/zero/1.0/ which could be used as the object of a triple with the predicate dct:license

Take a look at Zurich's Open Data site as an example:

https://data.stadt-zuerich.ch/dataset/bev-bestand-jahr-quartier-seit1970

the dataset has an html landing page with the CC0 license listed, as well as an rdf record with metadata about the dataset including a license expressed as a literal:

<dct:license>NonCommercialAllowed-CommercialAllowed-ReferenceNotRequired</dct:license>

https://data.stadt-zuerich.ch/dataset/bev-bestand-jahr-quartier-seit1970.rdf

I guess for all of Refbank, we could have something similar. For refbank queries, we could probably include boilerplate license code into the result set.
