Invalid types in CSL JSON items returned by DOI content negotiation

[dhimmel]

Sorry if this issue is a bit off topic. @gbilder mentioned this repo on twitter.

DOI content negation that accepts application/vnd.citationstyles.csl+json produces item types that are not part of the CSL specification.

Specifically, I had to convert the following invalid types:

• journal-article
• book-chapter
• posted-content
• proceedings-article

For example

curl --location --header "Accept: application/vnd.citationstyles.csl+json" https://doi.org/10.7717/peerj.705 |
  python -m json.tool

Produces

Note the invalid "type": "journal-article".

Or for example, a bioRxiv preprint:

curl --silent --location \
  --header "Accept: application/vnd.citationstyles.csl+json" \
  https://doi.org/10.1101/087619 |
  python -m json.tool |
  grep '"type":'

Returns "type": "posted-content",. I'm not sure what's the best CSL type to match posted-content.
