Citation Intent

This is an implementation of the Citation Typing Ontology (CiTO).

In Stencila Schema it provides a controlled vocabulary for expressing why one creative work cites another, including factual, rhetorical, and discourse relationships. The values map directly to CiTO terms so that citation intent can be preserved across document formats and linked-data workflows.

See Citation.citationIntent for the property that uses this enumeration.
