Hi Gunna,
I think the reasoning behind it is, "if it hasn't been published before,
you can't provide a citation for it".
However there are many repositories out there who only accept published
content and threw away the initial question "has this item been published
before?" all together, and just show those fields at all times.
best regards,
Bram Luyten
