Chndoi -- Add item from China DOI database

Zorozero

Hello all,
I'm trying to use the wizard and add some DOI from a Chinese source, but it doesn't resolve. Looking into it, I found that this China DOI, abbr. Chndoi, comes from a different database or repository or DOI organization?

I don't quite understand why there is a separate system, but I have noticed that some DOIs from Chinese researchers do not resolve. However, they link to the website https://www.chndoi.org/home/index

Unfortunately, this site is only in Chinese, so I cannot read it. I don't want to call this a feature request. Just an observation for now.

Thank you.

Here is an example. https://doi.org/10.16418/j.issn.1000-3045.2019.09.003

Despite the doi.org, it won't be added?

Yes, that DOI is registered with CNKI, and as far as we know there's no public API for retrieving metadata. CNKI has also recently moved to block foreign access to some of its materials, so this probably won't be changing anytime soon.
