Notes from the discussion from Liz and Cath in this googledoc: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1znGnr0SCGZLCQiSVnKimsW45SnzloeGdKlGslDxA6rI/edit?hl=en_GB - these will be massaged into coherency over the next few days.

Once we're going to citations as embedded metadata, there are many possible bits of info that could be added, such as micro-citation (ie: pointing to specific parts of something), indication of how the cited thing is relevant (ie: 'background info', 'supporting evidence', perhaps 'we're contradicting this'). I wrote a paper touching on this sort of thing (though with a science bent) a few years ago: http://people.physics.anu.edu.au/~jwl105/Pubs/2009/wood-et-al-TheoryProvenance-WDPP-2009.pdf I also contributed to a workshop on data citation and publication for oceanographic data, and some of the issues/ideas may also be relevant. http://www.iode.org/index.php?option=com_oe&task=viewDocumentRecord&docID=5437 I’ve worked on a few things tangentially relevant to your ideas, so I thought I’d mention them.
