Publishers announce common standard for article version histories
Authors
Abstract
The standard makes every substantive change to a published record visible and citable, addressing a long-standing gap in the scholarly record. The analysis draws on a corpus assembled from institutional repositories, preprint servers and publisher metadata feeds, and the full dataset together with the code needed to reproduce every figure is deposited under a permissive licence. Limitations, including coverage gaps in non-English sources, are set out in the discussion.
