NOBLEID Display Guidelines
Aligns with community DOI display guidance, but for NOBLEID. Following the same clarity/persistence principles.
Core Display Requirements
Always display as a full HTTPS URL:
https://nobleid.org/ark:/nobleid/<shoulder>/<blade>[:vN]
Make the whole URL clickable:
Don't hide it behind generic "link" text.
Version linking:
Link exact versions when citing a specific release:
https://nobleid.org/ark:/nobleid/20092025/7X9K2Q:v2
Use the root when you intend "latest":
https://nobleid.org/ark:/nobleid/20092025/7X9K2Q
Technical Requirements
- In HTML metadata, add sameAs for any other PIDs (e.g., DOI) to reduce duplication in indexes.
- Keep letter case exactly as issued by the resolver (IDs can be case-sensitive in segments).
- Never truncate, wrap mid-token, or add punctuation inside the URL.
