How to cite urbs properly

[kais-siala]

The title says it: We need a proper way of citing the tool and the documentation.
Currently, the citation in Zenodo includes pseudonames that are not worthy of use in journals, imho.

For easy maintenance, you could have a README.md section How to cite hosted here that always yields an up-to-date version of title (& version!) and author names. I would opt for phasing out long inactive maintainers (like myself) in favour of always putting the new contributors first. That way, there is a stronger incentive for individuals to push new features forward and becoming principal author for 1, 2 or 3 releases, while fading to the background after months/years of inactivity.

Concerning Zenodo: if you create a new account (with ENS-internally shared credentials), you could swap the badge with one created from that new account. You can edit names of the contributors there. But unlike ReadTheDocs, I cannot "open up" my account's link to this repository. So the way forward there is: create new (ENS-shared) Zenodo account. If needed, I can delete my badge/account/project linkage first. Just @mention me if need be.

Thank you for the fast answer!
Account has been created and credentials are shared. Just need a proper convention.

I beg you to define a proper way of citing urbs @sonercandas @lodersky, I am about to submit new manuscripts and the issue still persists.

@maledo do you know which account has been used? ENS account does not seem to work.
