DataCite ↔ Crossref Crosswalk

Can the Metadata Game Changers use cases run on Crossref metadata?

Mostly yes, for a reduced catalog. Of the 234 concept scorings across the fourteen use cases, 64 map directly to the Crossref /works response, 71 map approximately, and 99 have no Crossref equivalent. The core FAIR Text and Identifiers concepts, funding, licenses, and most relation types survive the port; contacts, contributor types, typed related items, keywords, and geographic/temporal coverage do not — Crossref’s journal-article heritage shows exactly where you’d expect.

Concepts from the Metadata Game Changers catalog (FAIR_spirals.json, 2026-09-06) · Crossref side verified against the live api.crossref.org (186.3M works)

Metadata Connectivity ports better than the completeness catalog. Its questions map almost one-for-one: creator identifiers → author[].ORCID, affiliations → author[].affiliation[].name, affiliation identifiers → affiliation[].id[] (ROR), funder identifiers → funder[].DOI/funder[].id[], rights URIs → license[].URL. The two casualties: publisher identifiers (Crossref identifies the depositing member, not a publisher ROR) and the contributor bars (no contributor-type vocabulary). An Organization Completeness analog also exists: filter=ror-id:<ROR> finds an organization’s works (12,912 for Wageningen), and facet=publisher-name plays the role of the client facet.

Element level: where the concepts come from

The 234 concept scorings draw on about fifteen DataCite properties. This is how each property fares, with live coverage of the 186.3M Crossref works where a filter exists to measure it.
