DOI not resolving

[blahah]

Trying to add a gist for the paper with doi 10.1371/journal.pgen.1004365, the form doesn't load the data. Looking at the console I get a null response from http://www.sciencegist.com/papers_metadata.json?q=10.1371%2Fjournal.pgen.1004365.

I then filled in the paper details manually, and when I submitted the form saw a "we're sorry, something went wrong" error.

Please let me know if I can provide any more details to help.

Edit: I just noticed that the gist actually went through with the manual submission: http://www.sciencegist.com/gists/488

It works if the format is exactly as expected, i.e.: try "doi: 10.1371/journal.pgen.1004365"

I agree that this should be more foolproof, so that queries like "10.1371/journal.pgen.1004365" default to DOI searching. The exact format so far is required because we need to make a distinction between arxiv and doi references.

I fixed your manual submission ... manually :) http://sciencegist.com/doi/10.1371/journal.pgen.1004365

Thanks for your contribution! I'll keep this issue open as a reminder for the future (There's a lot of open issues...)

Ah my bad - for some reason I completed failed to notice that the quoted example had 'doi: ' at the beginning!
