AWB enhancement/suggestion

When a journal article is on JSTOR, please suppress the addition of the DOI which just repeats the JSTOR number with the JSTOR doi prefix. (And or convert JSTOR DOI values to jstor= parameters). So a JSTOR article should have a DOI only if the journal has it's own DOI for it outside JSTOR. Some readers may need to learn that the JSTOR number gets them to the article to (probably) read, rather than assuming only the DOI value will. My preference is for slightly more succinct citation template output, without loss of useful information. Thanks for all your hard work. RDBrown (talk) 04:55, 15 July 2016 (UTC)

It's not that simple. Firstly, I would always show |doi= and be looking to suppress |jstor=, the DOI is the most widely used identifier. Secondly, some JSTOR DOIs are in the JSTOR format but resolve to another site and not JSTOR (presumably publisher commercial reasons), so it's not sufficient to just look at the DOI format. I've been asked about this before, yet to come up with a solution that fits all scenarios other than having the duplication, so editors might manually remove |jstor= if DOI does resolve to JSTOR. (If it were that simple, I would ask the CS1 templates to not display |jstor= if JSTOR-format |doi= present.) Rjwilmsi 07:26, 15 July 2016 (UTC)

Thanks for the response - I was hoping it was simpler. JSTOR indicates to me that I can read the article, but I need to recognize the prefix on a DOI to know I can access more than the abstract, ... so there is some utility in both. Thanks again, I should have searched your archive. RDBrown (talk) 09:30, 15 July 2016 (UTC)
