Today I came across this preprint citing our software.

Perhaps it's time to start keep tracking this information and displaying it on the website, like BrianGlobe does. For context, BrainGlobe creates that list automatically through a CI job that queries OpenAlex, see brainglobe/brainglobe.github.io#295.

We might want to do the same, however a quick search on OpenAlex didn't find our Zenodo software citation. Perhaps OpenAlex doesn't index software dois? We would also have to take care to aggregate citations across version-specific and version-agnostic dois, which could be a pain, given that new version-specific dois will be minted all the time (with each release).

After 5' of more digging, I can't track our doi on neither OpenAlex nor CrossRef, and zenodo itself doesn't show the citation. This will require further investigation.

Finally managed to track the movement doi at DataCite, so it is being indexed there. DataCite offers a REST API so we may be able to retrieve citation info that way.
