I added this comment to the altmetric blog article, so thought I would add it
to this discussion as well...
The 4 templates as part of the fabulous RefToolbar all have DOI, ISBN, PMID
fields so.... :-)
I mention the RefToolbar because I'm not sure if folks know about it when
building citations. I find it invaluable.

Please also note there is a citation toolbar (see:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:RefToolbar) that can be activated by
registered Wikipedia users — that utilizes the following templates: cite web,
cite news, cite book, cite journal.
I am obsessed with citation cleanup so I use this toolbar all the time. To
activate, go to Preferences, Gadgets, Editing, select “refToolbar, adds a
“cite” button to the editing toolbar for quick and easy addition of commonly
used citation templates.”
It’s WONDERFUL!

Definitely an incentive to use those doi, prc, & pmid parameters in the {{cite
web}} template!

Dario and I just released our first static dump of identifiers. Right now, it
only includes PubMed identifiers, but I'm running an extraction right now to
add DOIs. It turns out that they are non-trivial to extract with regexes[1]
alone, so I wrote an island parser to extract them from wikimarkup[2] that
seems to perform very well.
