Second-level OA signalling #100

Open Daniel-Mietchen opened 10 years ago

Daniel-Mietchen commented 10 years ago

What about signaling the OA-ness of references cited in articles that we have imported into Wikisource? That might trigger a secondary import, but given the low rates of open articles amongst cited references, I do not foresee eternal chains of imports any time soon.

Just gave it a try: https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Wikisource:WikiProject_Open_Access/Programmatic_import_from_PubMed_Central/Saudi_Arabian_Y-Chromosome_diversity_and_its_relationship_with_nearby_regions cites https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Wikisource:WikiProject_Open_Access/Programmatic_import_from_PubMed_Central/Mitochondrial_lineage_M1_traces_an_early_human_backflow_to_Africa , which cites https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Wikisource:WikiProject_Open_Access/Programmatic_import_from_PubMed_Central/Most_of_the_extant_mtDNA_boundaries_in_South_and_Southwest_Asia_were_likely_shaped_during_the_initial_settlement_of_Eurasia_by_anatomically_moder and https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Wikisource:WikiProject_Open_Access/Programmatic_import_from_PubMed_Central/Phylogeny_and_antiquity_of_M_macrohaplogroup_inferred_from_complete_mt_DNA_sequence_of_Indian_specific_lineages , the latter of which also cites the former. Neither of the two seem to cite any other openly licensed article.

It should not trigger a secondary import because, our plan is to only scan for DOIs that are in use on Wikipedia, right?

Yes, right now we're mainly thinking about doing this on Wikipedia, but the more full texts are on Wikisource, the more will people use that, and then hopefully want to have that nice feature set they have come to like on Wikipedia...
