A publication registration attaches a persistent identifier and a structured description to a work so that it can be found, cited and linked for as long as the record lasts. The identifier only works if the metadata behind it is accurate and the link still resolves. This page sets out how registration works through agencies such as Crossref and DataCite, what makes registration metadata trustworthy, and where registrations fail in ways that ripple into citation, funding and assessment.
Publication registrations on the record.
Publication registrations: how the risk develops.
Publication metadata and identifiers. The dossier below sets out how the risk develops, what is measured, where the data come from, how it is modelled and who decides.
Identifier without a target
A DOI resolves to a landing page that has moved, lapsed or been replaced. The identifier persists while the thing it named becomes unreachable, and every citation that uses it now leads nowhere useful.
Duplicate registrations
The same work is registered twice, by publisher and repository, or as preprint and article without a relation between them. Citations and usage split across identifiers, and one work appears to be two.
Metadata drift
Titles, authors, affiliations or funding are corrected on the landing page but not in the registered metadata, or the reverse. Downstream indexes copy whichever state they harvested, and the record diverges across pergalan.
Assessment inherits the errors
Funders, institutions and rankings count outputs from registration metadata. Missing contributor identifiers, unresolved affiliations and absent award identifiers credit work to the wrong people, the wrong organisation or to no funder at all.

What is measured, and how well.
Each indicator carries its unit, its cadence, the kind of source behind it and the evidence label a value would carry. No values are shown: a programme supplies them under its own authority.
| Indicator | Unit | Cadence | Source type | Nîşan |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Registered outputs with a persistent identifier | share of outputs | monthly | Registration agency metadata | REPORTED |
| Identifier resolution success | share of resolution attempts | weekly | Resolver probes | ÇAVDÊRÎKIRÎ |

| Contributors with an ORCID iD | share of contributors | monthly | Registration metadata | ÇAVDÊRÎKIRÎ |

Where the evidence comes from.
Named public datasets and institutional records, each with its licence class. Sources by agreement are used only under their terms and never republished.

| ORCID registry | Contributor identifiers and the works, affiliations and awards linked to them | CC0 for the public data file |
| ROR (Research Organization Registry) | Affiliation identifiers for the organisations named in registrations | CC0 |
| ISSN Portal | Identifiers and key titles for serial publications | Basic records open; full records by subscription from the ISSN International Centre |

Who decides, and what the evidence serves.
Registry prepares evidence. The decisions below are taken by the authorities named, under their own rules, and never by the platform.
| Who decides | The question | Evidence this page serves |
|---|---|---|
| Publishers and repository managers | Which metadata to deposit, and how to fix incomplete or duplicated registrations | Completeness against the agency schema, resolution checks and suspected duplicates |
| Institutional librarians | Which outputs to report for the institution and how to attribute them | Contributor and affiliation identifiers in the registered metadata |
| Funders | Which outputs to attribute to an award in reporting and evaluation | Funder and award identifiers in registrations, checked against the award record |
| Registration agencies | How to support members whose deposits fall short of schema or resolution requirements | Field-level completeness and resolution records for the member’s identifiers |
Outputs this topic produces

What experts ask about registrations.
- Which metadata fields are needed for discovery, and which for verification?
- How should versions, translations and derived works relate to one another?
- How are authors, institutions and funders identified unambiguously?
- What should an identifier resolve to after a work is withdrawn?
- How can registration status avoid being read as a quality judgement?
How persistent identifiers work.
Web addresses break when sites are reorganised. Persistent identifier pergalan separate a work’s identity from its location: a registration agency issues an identifier, the publisher maintains the metadata and the current location, and a resolver redirects readers. Digital Object Identifiers are the familiar example for publications and datasets, with parallel open identifiers for researchers and research organisations.
Registration also creates relationships. A record can state that a report is a new version of an earlier one, that it is translated from another, that it relies on a dataset or that it has been corrected. When those relations are recorded consistently, a reader holding any version can find all the others.
What a good registration holds.
- 01
Descriptive metadata
Title, contributors with their roles, dates, language, abstract and subject terms, in an open schema.
- 02
Têkilî
Links to versions, corrections, datasets and methods, so the record sits in a graph rather than alone.
- 03
Rights and access
The licence and access conditions, consistent with rights and disclosure.
- 04
Sînor
Metadata quality varies with the care of whoever supplies it. An identifier proves that a work was registered, not that it was reviewed or is correct, and identifier pergalan depend on the institutions that maintain them.
How it is studied, and what the methods cannot say.
