Description

Most datasets are the result of a paper and thus can be linked to (web page, pdf, DOI).
It would be nice, if there was a dedicated field for something like a bibtex entry as well as a URI for the paper.

I assume that this can currently go into the sandbox field, but since it's such a regular thing, perhaps a little special something is in order.

The object to extend would be Annotation_Metadata.

Research direction

Start with the Annotation_Metadata object and inspect how its sandbox metadata is represented, validated, and serialized. Clarify the field names and accepted forms for a BibTeX entry and paper URI, then identify the corresponding schema examples or tests; done means the metadata supports both references distinctly and remains valid for existing datasets.
