The WordPress platform is a good place to start for building on research
papers.

I'm forwarding your WordPress module wishlist to Code4Lib:

I would be interested in these two
> Wordpress modules:
> a) an author module that integrates with the ORCID researcher
> identifier system. Manuscript authors could provide their ORCID
> credentials when starting a document, and there would be no need to
> provide author information at the time of manuscript submission. This
> module would also allow all coauthors to approve a manuscript before
> submission. The system should also define the role of the author in
> the manuscript ("provided data", "did experiment X", etc.).
> b) a citation module that extends the current Wordpress functionality
> of providing links. The module should provide rich formating of
> citations (using the citation style language CSL), should verify
> citations, should add meaning to citations (using the Citation
> Ontology CiTO), and should allow citations of specific parts of a
> paper or dataset.


Code4Lib folks, for context see

Thought of y'all in part because the Code4Lib Journal uses some WordPress
customizations:

Subject: Re: Workshop Deliverables?
To: Beyond the PDF <[log in to unmask]>


I'm very much enjoying this discussion, and it is still more than two
months to go before we actually meet in person. I also like the focus
of delivering something meaningful at the end of the workshop rather
than just having a very interesting conversation about topics beyond
the PDF. Earlier on we have talked about some of the practical aspects
to make this work, and that included incentives for the individual
researcher and tools that make the creation of a scholarly paper
easier and not more difficult. I would like to add another
requirement, and that is that all scholarly tools should built on
standard tools we already use in other domains, and not build
something from scratch. The reason for that is that the scholarly
community is relatively small, and the larger community is already
working on not on all, but many of the same issues. And it has been
stated from the very beginning that we want to build open source
tools.

I would propose that we think about the technology platform that is
the best starting point for a tool we can build at or shortly
following the workshop. There are many potential candidates (Google
Wave was also on that list for a while). Lemon8-XML from the Public
Knowledge Project (http://pkp.sfu.ca/lemon8) would be one good
candidate. Right now it is a tool to convert documents in Microsoft
Word or Open Office formats into the NLM-DTD to publish them with the
Open Journal Systems journal submission system. But in the last few
weeks I realized that for me the ideal platform for an authoring tool
is actually Wordpress. JISC recently funded the Knowledge Blogs
project by Phil Lord (http://researchdata.jiscinvolve.org/wp/
2010/08/02/new-jiscmrd-projects-citing-linking-and-integrating-
research-data/) that will build a lightweight publication system. He
would be able to say much more about the potential and obstacles of
that platform. The main reason for me to pick Wordpress is that it
already solved many of the problems we would have to work on when
building a new authoring tool, as it is a mature and well-documented,
web-based, multiuser publishing platform. Most importantly, I think it
is a platform that authors will like and actually use.

So I propose that as one workshop deliverable we built several
extensions (widgets) to the Wordpress system. The modular system of
the Wordpress platform makes it ease to start several sub-projects
that work on different aspects of the scholarly paper. And it is
certainly possible to deliver something using that platform until the
end of 2011. Code that went into building these Wordpress modules
could be reused for other porjects. I would be interested in these two
Wordpress modules:

a) an author module that integrates with the ORCID researcher
identifier system. Manuscript authors could provide their ORCID
credentials when starting a document, and there would be no need to
provide author information at the time of manuscript submission. This
module would also allow all coauthors to approve a manuscript before
submission. The system should also define the role of the author in
the manuscript ("provided data", "did experiment X", etc.).

b) a citation module that extends the current Wordpress functionality
of providing links. The module should provide rich formating of
citations (using the citation style language CSL), should verify
citations, should add meaning to citations (using the Citation
Ontology CiTO), and should allow citations of specific parts of a
paper or dataset.
