APT generated citations not formatted correctly

[bwbaker1]

Description

The current format of generated ATBD citations changed at some point and is no longer correct.

Current example from UI:

It should look like the following:
Hu, C., Werdell, J., O'Reilly, J., Feng, L., Lee, Z., Franz, B., Bailey, S., & Proctor, C. (Publication Date). Chlorophyll a, v1.0. NASA Algorithm Publication Tool. (DOI).

Format:
lastname, first initial., lastname, first initial., ..... & lastname, first initial. (Publication Date). Title, Version. Publisher. Online Resource. DOI.

The citation link is also incorrect. It is missing "apt/"

[bwbaker1]

@ashleyriddle92 Will you review this format and verify it is correct?

[ashleyriddle92]

If were to use a journal format, it would look like this:

Hu, C., Werdell, J., O'Reilly, J., Feng, L., Lee, Z., Franz, B., Bailey, S., & Proctor, C. (Publication Date). Chlorophyll a, v1.0. NASA Algorithm Publication Tool. (DOI).

Hello @bwbaker1 if the document has an existing DOI (as input in the identifying information), should we use the existing DOI or the generated URL pointing to the document?

[bwbaker1]

@kamicut We should use the existing DOI.

@bwbaker1 this is on staging and ready for your review

[bwbaker1]

@wrynearson There are a few issues. This is what I get.

It should look like this:
Baker, B. & Riddle A. (publication date). APT Citation Generator Test, v1. NASA Algorithm Publication Tool. (DOI)

So only the first name initial should be displayed and the publisher should be italicized.

1. @bwbaker1 could you check that you've entered the name of the editors in the format Lastname, Firstname in the Identifying information section? We are standardizing those inputs across the application so that we can correctly identify the last name(s)
2. I will look into italicizing the publisher.

[wrynearson]

@bwbaker1 are these the screenshots you meant to include? The citation is being driven by the citations form in the 1st step of the edit flow (Identifying Information), not the contacts form in the 2nd step

[bwbaker1]

@wrynearson Sorry. but I guess I didn't preview those for commenting. It should have been these.

The final citation should be the following:

Baker, B. & Riddle, A. (publication date - null). APT Citation Generator Test, v1. NASA Algorithm Publication Tool. (10.1029/2022EA002516).

We're working on the first names not appearing. We should have a fix this week.

For the italics, it looks like it will require more changes. How critical is this issue? Could users who are copying the citation apply formatting changes elsewhere for the time being?

(publication date - null)

If there is no publication date, should we explicitly say "publication date - null", or is "null" enough?

[bwbaker1]

@wrynearson This isn't a high priority right now. It looks better than it did before. The bigger issue is #843 because we have someone ready to publish but can't until the order of the contacts is correct. Also, another document is in review, so that is going to lead to the same issue soon.
