Descriptive links within Citation Styles

[StephDriver]

The Problem

• Descriptive links are required for accessibility (see WCAG: Navigable hourglass#338)
• Citation styles, initially developed for print, often include the full URL rather than a descriptive link.

There is a discussion of this matter on APA style. The recommended approach is that

Users who develop online-only resources should adapt APA Style to fit their needs. This adaption includes, but is not limited to, the use of descriptive links throughout texts and reference lists.

They also suggest:

people creating online works in APA Style can put the DOI or URL beneath descriptive text. Some reference databases put DOIs or URLs beneath buttons labeled “Article.” Another approach is to link the title of the work to the work’s URL or DOI.

Tasks

• Discuss how we wish to approach this within Janeway.
• Implement our solution

Points for discussion

• one solution or should there be some editorial choice? Different solutions on different themes?
• which approach(es)
• Can this be done on top of existing XML?

This is about changing the JATS markup - so it's user content.
