Updating DOI changes publication year
bemoody opened this issue · comments
console.utility.generate_doi_payload generates the JSON metadata that is sent to the DataCite API, either to register, publish, or update a DOI.
This includes:
"publicationYear": timezone.now().year,
which seems very wrong.
Good catch!
When creating the DOI for core_projects (which points to the latest version of the project), do you agree that we should set the PublicationYear to the latest version of the project?
Yeah, I think the core project DOI info should match the latest version, including publication year.
I'm not sure what happens right now if you go to a "non-latest-version" management page and click "Update metadata (core)".
