A digital object identifier (DOI) is a unique persistent identifier to a published work, similar in concept to an ISBN. Wikipedia supports the use of DOI to link to published content. Where a journal source has a DOI, it is good practice to use it, in the same way as it is good practice to use ISBN references for book sources.
A DOI is a type of Handle System handle, which takes the form of a character string divided into two parts, a prefix and a suffix, separated by a slash.. prefix/suffix. The prefix identifies the registrant of the identifier and the suffix is chosen by the registrant and identifies the specific object associated with that DOI.
The terms "free", "subscription", and "free & subscription" will refer to the availability of the website as well as the journal articles used.

When a scholarly journal publishes an article, typically the publisher will enter the following information about the article into CrossRef: journal name, article DOI, publication date, journal volume, issue, and page, URL of article as well as journal, and number of pages.
If the linked document is PDF, but the extension is not .pdf or .PDF, you may add the parameter |format=PDF, which displays " (PDF)" after the link. Specify the DOI to provide a permanent link, and a URL where the article is free.
