Crossref and I4OC

@Pigsonthewing: stating that the I4OC is a "service" provided by Crossref is inaccurate. Crossref provides the infrastructure to collect and redistribute bibliographic and reference records obtained from publishers via its APIs and specifically through a service called CitedBy. The I4OC is not a service by Crossref (in fact, Crossref is not among the founders or stakeholders), but an independent advocacy initiative asking publishers to open up their reference records so they can be exposed by Crossref and reused by other parties with no copyright restrictions. Does that make sense? And if so, could you correct the wording in the article (I'd rather not do this myself since I'm directly involved in the I4OC).--DarTar (talk) 18:53, 13 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@DarTar: The service is that "citation data is made available", but I'm happy to re-word that to clarify, if you would like to suggest an improvement. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 21:19, 13 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
