Research direction

No file or test is identified. Start by reviewing schema.org's existing identifier subproperties and the 14-comment discussion, then confirm the intended DOI representation and acceptance criteria; done requires an agreed proposal and its addition to the schema.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

no-issue-activity

I saw that schema.org does not have DOI as property.

You surely know that DOIs are in context of academic, professional, and government publications and research important persistent identifiers that should enable DOI resolvers to link to the identified object. DOIs are also important for libraries and publishers.

Therefore I suggest DOI as a new subproperty of identitifer.
