Re: [ccp4bb] A polite reminder to xia2 users

Dear All,

Slightly ignorant and certainly oblique question perhaps, but are there still 
journals out there which limit the number of references allowed? This used to 
be a “reason” people would use for not properly citing all of the resources 
they used in arriving at the results included in the manuscript. In real life, 
particularly with the move to electronic publication, there should be no 
excuses or reasons for incomplete citations or citations in supplementary 
materials (I feel).

I guess it should be possible for e.g. processing software to identify the 
beamline from the correctly populated image header (*) and make for the user’s 
convenience some kind of mmCIF file (perhaps) with the appropriate citations 
for beamline and software for *that* data set – though this would require some 
infrastructure to exist in a public place (PDB?) where this was stored so the 
software developers could access it to get the right info. This sounds like 
something we were all discussing in 2006 ☹

Also, I guess people should know where their data came from & be capable of 
correctly acknowledging this, but it sounds like this is not the case perhaps? 
*should* pipeline developers be doing more here?

Hi All,

This is slightly OT for the list as such but it is of interest of the current 
thread.

I would like to argue that just as important it is to reference to the software 
in an adequate way, it is also important to give due to the hardware, i.e. the 
beam lines on which most of the data is collected. Most beamlines have now 
publications that describe them, it is very important to us that these will be 
referenced to. This will make it easier for us in the long end to keep them in 
the best state possible so that you can obtain the best data possible.

best regards

Hi Jacob,

I tend to follow the authors' suggestion. When you start refmac, even without
any options, it says:
Main reference
  "REFMAC5 for the refinement of macromolecular crystal structures:"

The same is true for many other programs.

Re: [ccp4bb] A polite reminder to xia2 users

2015-11-06 Thread Sanishvili, Ruslan
Perfect segue to bring us back to the origin of this thread. Graeme was 
reminding the users of Xia2 that Xia2 was using other software for data 
analysis and that other software to be credited as well. Indeed, when we 
extract "Xia2 has been used for PDB files reported in X high-impact 
publications (with IF>Y)", we give all credit to Xia2 and none to the programs 
used by Xia2 - exactly the point Graeme was making.

One (hopefully) practical thought: many of us cite what is recommended by the 
authors of the software we site, as already suggested in this thread by several 
colleagues. At the same time, the end users sometimes (in most cases?) are not 
aware that wrappers use other software underneath. Perhaps the authors of the 
wrappers could provide the citation of the program(s) used by the said 
wrappers, and recommend those citations to be used in publications? Just as 
individual programs provide recommended references. It may not work in all 
cases but may in some.

The PDB files should note the programs and beamlines used, I am sure software 
developers are already using PDB statistics in funding applications?
From the PDB database, with a bit of work, one could extract data like “Xia2 
has been used for PDB files reported in X high-impact publications (with IF>Y)" 
or similar.

Re: [ccp4bb] A polite reminder to xia2 users

2015-11-06 Thread Michel Fodje
Hardware: Say I do a lot of screening on Beamline A (many hours used), collect 
a low resolution anomalous dataset on Beamline B, which helps me to solve the 
structure, then I collect a high resolution native dataset on Beamline C (in 
just a few minutes) for refinement and model building. Many people deposit just 
the data from C and acknowledge beamline C and perhaps B. Beamline A is almost 
always ignored.  I think all three beamlines contributed directly to the paper 
should be cited. There is no other way for the beamline A to assess its impact 
if it isn't cited.

Software: How many of you have ever cited FFTW, CBFLib, etc when those 
libraries were used behind the scenes by the other programs?  Should you be 
expected to cite them? How far down the dependency chain should that citation 
list go? I don't think the license should be the determining factor on what 
gets cited or not. It is a nice suggestion for pipelines to generate a list of 
relevant citations for the given dataset which includes references to all the 
software used.  But if the pipeline itself was published, and cites all those 
packages, users should not need to cite the individual packages again.

We certainly do not want a situation in which the list of references is 10x 
longer than the rest of the paper. Just like we do not include all the 
citations from the papers we cite, we shouldn't be expecting authors to include 
all the software/libraries used vicariously. Are we perhaps abusing the 
citation system as a way of "tipping" the hardware/software people? We need a 
better way of measuring impact, and then using impact for funding applications 
rather than citations.

If I cite XIA2, there should be a mechanism for XDS or MOSFLM to see an 
increase in their impact due to the XIA2 citations -- because it's 2015. I do 
not think it is a good idea to *politely* force users of XIA2 to cite all the 
other programs as well.

But the general question remains: should authors really cite all of these
