Entering a Journal Article

To generate a citation on your WordPress profile page for a journal article, you’ll need to fill out the 11 fields described below.

1. Include in my Department Faculty Profile web page: Select Yes to display this publication on your profile page.
2. Contribution Type: Choose “Journal Article, Academic Journal”, “Journal Article, Professional Journal”, or “Journal Article, In-House Journal”.
3. Current Status: Choose appropriate publication status; simple if you wait until published and choose “Published.
4. Title of Contribution: Enter the title of your article without any quote marks around it–formatting will be added on output to your page. If you have apostrophes or quote marks in your title, please take a few seconds to delete them and type them back in if you have copy and pasted the title from MS Word.

5. Authors:
   1. If you need to add authors, select the number after “Add another Author” and click on the Add button.
   2. For YOUR name, select it from the “People at University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee” field.
   3. For all other authors (including others at UWM), type in their name in the First Name, Middle Name/Initial, and Last Name fields. Using the “People at University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee” field for other UWM faculty creates a shared DM publication which appears on your collaborator’s profile page without their consent.

   2. In the “Search on article title” section, enter the First Author (surname) and Article Title for the publication.
   3. In the search results, copy the portion of the URL after “http://dx/doi.org” (e.g., 10.1007/978-3-642-11164-8_95).
   4. Return to DM and paste this number into the field.
