The following formula is the recommendation on how to cite the dataset once it is publically available on the GFBio portal.
This should be accommodated in the ABCD element /DataSets/DataSet/Metadata/IPRStatements/Citations/Citation/Text
<Authors> (<Publication_year>). <Title>. [Dataset]. Version: <VersionNr>. Data Publisher: <Data_center_name>. <URI>.
The following string might be appended to the citation on the GFBio portal, but should not be included in the ABCD element /DataSets/DataSet/Metadata/IPRStatements/Citations/Citation/Text: Accessed via <GFBio portal link to dataset> at <access date YYYY-MM-DD>
.
<access date YYYY-MM-DD>. is the date on which the end user found and/or downloaded the dataset from the GFBio portal. Caution: This MUST NOT identify the version of a dataset at a certain point in time, because if I access the same dataset tomorrow, I need to get the same data as of today! It just attributes to the state of the portal link where the dataset was accessed.
<family name>, <initial of the given name>
e.g. for Marianne Mustermensch use Mustermensch, M.
and for Karl-Heinz Mustermensch use Mustermensch, K.-H.
and for Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart use Mozart, W. A.
<family name1>, <given name1>; <family name2>, <given name2> & <family name3>, <given name3>
