JSTOR and false DOI Numbers
With citations from the American Journal of Sociology, the doi number that JSTOR provides isn't the real doi. The metadata for this journal (and probably others) is an internal JSTOR system identifier information that is interpreted as a doi number. The JSTOR internal tracking numbers are in exactly the same format as a real doi. Using these JSTOR numbers in a http://dx.doi/ URL leads to a doi error screen.
Now, if only there was a way to use Zotero to get the true doi numbers from the University of Chicago Press site in a batch process...

I haven't looked into it at all, but useful questions: are the registered JSTOR DOIs denoted somehow or does removing bad DOIs require removing all DOIs? What are long-term plans for registration of more DOIs?
This was actually fixed before, but it looks like JSTOR itself is now exporting the fake DOIs as real DOIs in their RIS export format.
usedpublished without being registered. JSTOR is (or at least was) a bit of an exception here, because they were not supplying the DOI and we were actually trying to construct the DOI from their internal identifiers.
