Specification
Mockup
Details
- (1) Option: Show some text for an article when it only has bioRxiv metadata, e.g. "This information will be updated automatically a few weeks after acceptance."
- (2) Option: Hide the Biorxiv link / name
- (3) Option: Prompt the user, similar to (1), but ask them to upload the latest preprint to Biorxiv so it's up-to-date with the journal, but there may be administrative hurdles here
