This is an implementation of schema.org CreativeWork, extended in Stencila Schema as the main base type for document-like works and publishable artifacts.

In addition to broad schema.org creative-work metadata, Stencila adds support for structured authorship, provenance summaries, comments, richer date fields, grants, references, and document-oriented relationships between works. Many of the schema's concrete publishable node types inherit from this type.

Key Stencila Schema properties include workType, provenance, dateAccepted, and fundedBy. Many other metadata properties are inherited directly from schema.org.

Analogues

The following external types, elements, or nodes are similar to a CreativeWork:

schema.org CreativeWork: Direct schema.org source type, extended in Stencila as the common base for publishable, document-like, and executable works.

Pandoc Meta: Approximate Pandoc analogue for work-level metadata, though Stencila CreativeWork is also a node in the document graph and can carry richer relationships and provenance.
