PMIDS and DOIs merged in id field in {{Citation}} template on Wikisource

[Daniel-Mietchen]

I do not see the point of this id parameter, although it looks as if some thought has gone into it:

{{Citation
[..]
| doi = 10.1186/1471-2164-8-223
| pmid = 17620140
| id = 1762014010.1186/1471-2164-8-223
}}

Example from https://en.wikisource.org/w/index.php?title=Wikisource:WikiProject_Open_Access/Programmatic_import_from_PubMed_Central/Saudi_Arabian_Y-Chromosome_diversity_and_its_relationship_with_nearby_regions&oldid=4929277#cite_note-B42-37 .

I'd much rather have the PMCID signaled, for which there are provisions in

JATS-to-Mediawiki/jats-to-mediawiki.xsl

Line 960 in c2aa5d8

<xsl:choose>

.

Here's the code from

JATS-to-Mediawiki/jats-to-mediawiki.xsl

Line 986 in c2aa5d8

<!-- default catch-all id -->

:

        <!-- default catch-all id -->
        <xsl:if test="pub-id[not(@pub-id-type='doi|pmcid|pmid')]">
            <xsl:text>| id = </xsl:text>
            <xsl:apply-templates select="pub-id"/>
            <xsl:text>&#xA;</xsl:text>
        </xsl:if>

If I read correctly, this code is saying that if there is some ID used in the XML that does not have the type specified as doi, pmcid, or pmid then to then pass this id to the template as a value for the | id = field. This means the concatenated DOI-PMID is stored in the source XML?

the {{Citation}} template on Wikisource does not have a pmcid field (it does have doi and pmid) and expects the id field to correspond to ISBN or other identifier.

This means the concatenated DOI-PMID is stored in the source XML?

No way -- that wouldn't make any sense, and would definitely be an error.

the {{Citation}} template on Wikisource does not have a pmcid field

It looks like it does, but its name is pmc.

Hmm, then how is there a DOI-PMID concatenation taking place?

Indeed, the {{Cite journal}} template does have the pmcid field though.
