Suggestion: Add ontology as a work type. I think it is sufficiently different from data-set. We could also consider adding 'Vocabulary' or 'FAIR Enabling Resource' but 'ontology' would be a good start. Happy to discuss further!

Hi @TomDemeranville could you please take a look at this PR?

Hi @reality, thanks for the suggestion. We're currently looking at our work types to understand how they can better support the community and I'll add 'ontology' to the list of things to investigate. We're hoping to align with a community maintained standard as it's hard for us to maintain a vocabulary ourselves. The COAR list is looking like a strong candidate (https://vocabularies.coar-repositories.org/resource_types/) as it's well maintained and also well translated, but even then we're not going to be able to support the entire long tail of work types.

Thanks for your contribution @reality! I'm making this a draft so we at ORCID decide what standard we are going to follow.

Thank you for the response. I note that the suggested vocab doesn't include a concept for ontologies or controlled vocabularies (unless i'm missing it). Maybe SIO could be a contender - though it feels like you would probably have to pare it down a bit to reach the desired level of granularity: https://www.ebi.ac.uk/ols4/ontologies/sio/classes/http%253A%252F%252Fsemanticscience.org%252Fresource%252FSIO_000015?lang=en
