Why data papers?
Amsterdam manifesto:
4. A data citation in a publication should resemblea bibliographic citation and be located in the publication’s reference list.
• Data can (and should) be cited using DataCite DOIsin articles, but this is not enough.
• Researchers understand the value of papers• University departments and the REF understand
papers
• Researchers know where to put paper refs, no need for extra guidelines
• Publishers routinely strip out anything else• Familiar impact metrics can be collected
