Hyam, Roger. 2007. TDWG Standards Documentation Specification (draft standard). TDWG Infrastructure Project. 2007-11-05 version. http://www.tdwg.org/standards/147/
Is there a convention on the format already from the other standards, e.g. AC and DwC?
I've uploaded the pdf file you referenced. The download link now states:
Download: Original download (Microsoft Word document) / PDF version
I'm waiting on https://github.com/tdwg/infrastructure/issues/32 to add the preferred citation.
https://github.com/tdwg/vocab/commit/b5b9ef5d17bf1f50fcfea37a692de6f4345ee428: Similar to https://github.com/tdwg/abcddna, I've decided not to keep the doc around. I find it more confusing that there are 2 files, than just a single, readable one. I gave it the name of the original file: 147-483-4-RV.pdf
. What's left to do now, is the preferred citation.
See https://github.com/tdwg/infrastructure/issues/32 for discussion on preferred citation
Following the discussion on a standard preferred citation, this is what I added to this repo:
Vocabulary Maintenance Specification task group. 2015. Vocabulary Maintenance Specification (VOCAB), Version 0.1. Biodiversity Information Standards (TDWG) http://www.tdwg.org/standards/147
It's probably incorrect (I had to invent a version + used the task group as the author). Please update and let me know.
I got a bit confused, and added this to the master branch. I have now added this to the sds branch as well:
To summarize and review:
Vocabulary Maintenance Specification task group. 2015. Vocabulary Maintenance Specification (VOCAB), Version 0.1. Biodiversity Information Standards (TDWG) http://www.tdwg.org/standards/147
TDWG Infrastructure project. 2007. TDWG Standards Documentation Specification (SDS), Version 2007-02-06. Biodiversity Information Standards (TDWG) http://www.tdwg.org/standards/147
Two comments: -it might be good to include the word "draft" somewhere in the SDS title, although I suppose readers could discover that by clicking on the permanent URL link.
Updated preferred citation for archived branch to:
TDWG Infrastructure project. 2007. TDWG Standards Documentation Specification (SDS), Draft version 2007-02-06. Biodiversity Information Standards (TDWG) http://www.tdwg.org/standards/147
I will create a release of this branch.
Now released: https://github.com/tdwg/vocab/releases/tag/2007-02-06-sds Let me know if you have remarks regarding the release description. I've deleted the sds
branch to avoid confusion (all content is in the release anyway).
As discussed in this comment, we'll maintain an archived copy of the Standards Documentation Specification in this repository. I have just imported that information in this branch: https://github.com/tdwg/vocab/tree/sds. Please review (and edit) it before I create an archive (= release of it).
Note: Ignore the yellow banner on the repo homepage: do not create a pull request.
Once I have the go ahead from the @vocab team, I'll:
sds
branch so it doesn't confuse anyoneIn the near future, http://www.tdwg.org/standards/147/ will then redirect to https://github.com/tdwg/vocab, where users will be see the README and the link to the archived version.
