Really?! No suggestions? Nothing you'd change about it? No capability you want added to it? Or is everyone out in the lovely June weather doing other things? Gosh, that sounds like a great idea.... Never mind, you had your chance! I'm going outside to play!!! 😄

We include that info in our entries so SciX/ADS can link the s/w with research papers that describe or use the code. The links have the bibcode(s) for the articles(s) embedded in them, making it easy for SciX/ADS to create those links. Those associations show up on SciX/ADS as "Related Materials."

ASCL (Astrophysics Source Code Library) @asclnet.bsky.social · 04/04/2026

We list "preferred citation" on our records when we can find that information. It would be super helpful if every code repo included information on how the software should be cited! BTW, best practice is to cite both the article and the software. For years, we've advocated that software...

These two artifacts of research are not the same. ASCL records show as doctype:software in SciX/ADS, not as doctype:article, as is typical for an article.
