    So a super-compact citation might look like the Current Anthropology format (variables not yet lined up with the tDAR fields above -  will translate something inspired by this for us to use after lunch... ): 

    for a book:

    [Author (last, first 1st author; first last for all others]. [year]. [Title]. [City (State)]:[Publisher].

    Example - 

    Upton, Martin. 1996. The economics of tropical farming systems. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press.

    for a book section:

    [Author (last, first 1st author; first last for all others]. [year]. [Title]. In [Book Title], [Editors (first last)], eds. Pp. [Pages]. [City (State)]:[Publisher].

    Example -

    Abbott, David R. 2010. The rise and demise of marketplace exchange among the prehistoric Hohokam of Arizona. In Archaeological Approaches to Market Exchange in Ancient Societies. Christopher P. Garraty and Barbara L. Stark, eds. Pp. 61-84. Boulder: University Press of Colorado.

    for an article:

    [Author (last, first 1st author; first last for all others]. [year]. [Title]. [Journal Name] [Volume(issue)]:[Pages]. 

    Example -

    James M. Bayman. 2001. The Hohokam of Southwest North America. Journal of World Prehistory 15 (3):257-311.

    So moving out of brainstorming towards proposing a format: 

    Title: (combination of all the title fields with punctuation)

    Author: (list all authors/editors/contributors)

    Source: (rest of citation - varies by document type)

    Document Type: (one of six)

    DOI:

    URL:

     

    Source format ideas: 

    Book/Report - [city (state)]: [publisher].  [(year)]

    Book Chapter/Section -  In [Book Title]. Pp.[pages]. [city (state)]: [publisher].  [(year)]

    Journal Article - [Journal Title]. [volume(issue)]:[pages]. [(year)]

    Thesis/Dissertation - "Dissertation or thesis". [university], [city, state]. [(year)]

    Conference Presentation  - "Presented at:" [full name of meeting], [city, state]. [(year)]

    Other - [(year)]

     

    See above for my attempt to translate these formats to the tDAR fields.

    Josh,

      What about the ISBN/ISSN. where should those fit?

    1. Nov 21, 2011

      I'd propose putting them in on the same line as DOI. More or less like the way we have in the upload form.

       

      DOI: [doi] ; ISBN/ISSN: [isbn]
