Description: I'm trying to make sense of how to get high-quality bibliographic metadata into GBIF. For example, dataset http://www.gbif.org/dataset/80b4b440-eaca-4860-aadf-d0dfdd3e856e "Official Lists and Indexes of Names in Zoology that I've been working on with [~mdoering] and Rich Pyle has references with title and authors separated, and a URL identifier (a link to the reference in BioStor). However, GBIF seems to only have extracted the citation string, e.g. http://api.gbif.org/v1/species/100095779/references gives us.

{code:javascript}
{"offset":0,"limit":20,"endOfRecords":true,"results":[{"citation":"International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature. Opinion 1552 Dioctophyme Collet-Meygret, 1802 (Nematoda): spelling confirmed.Bulletin of Zoological Nomenclature 46, 199-200 (1989)","type":"publication"}]}
{code}

If I read https://github.com/gbif/portal-web/blob/master/src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/pages/species/references.ftl correctly, if title, link, etc. had been extracted then the display of this reference would have been richer:

{code:xml}
<#list page.results as item>

${item.title!item.author!(item.date?date?string)!} ${item.type!}<#if item.link?has_content> link

<#if item.citation?has_content> ${item.citation!}

{code} Is the issue in the Darwin Core Archve itself? If so, I could fix that https://github.com/gbif/iczn-lists If not, what do we need to do to have references displayed with a bit more fidelity?]]>
