These are NCEI best practices for how include information in the metadata record to support a recommended citation for the data..
For elements in the MD_DataIdentification//CI_Citation section:
title: The title shall be the same as the title for the DOI and the recommended data citation.
date: The "publication" dateType code shall always be included, even if the date is unknown. Other codes for dateTypes, such as "creation" or "revision" are optional.
citedResponsibleParty: Always include an "author" role and identify an individual or organization
Document names as you would like to see them in the recommended data citation.
Always include a "publisher" role
Do not include an individual and an organization in the same citeResponsibleParty for
"author" and "publisher" roles.
It is not recommended to include contact details, such as phone, fax, email or address.
The position field, individual IDs and organization URLs are permitted.
May repeat for other non-author and non-publisher roles that do not need to be included
in the citation.
Do not provide contact details.
The recommended citation goes in the resourceConstraints section.
Use the "author" AND "publisher" roleCodes from data citedResponsibleParty.
Include DOI when the dataset has one owned by NCEI.
Use the following citation style
Cite as: {{Last, F. M., F. M. Last, and F. M. Last}}. {{YYYY}}. {{Title}}. {{Version}}.
[indicate subset used]. NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information.
https://doi.org/{{DOI}}. Accessed [date].
The NCEI approach is probably too prescriptive for the international community. I think it would be sufficient to have some guidance on how to put together a recommended citation and the acceptable fields.
//gmd:resourceConstraints or //gmd:otherCitationDetails.
This is at an early stage and needs to be further discussed.
