Direct answer
Citation Lineage, in this reproducibility fixture, is limited to the following inspected scope. DataCite relation types can express predecessor, successor, version-container, and version-of relationships between deposited resources. The answer carries the source boundaries forward and does not infer authority from a neighboring topic.
Reproducibility fixture
Use synthetic or openly licensed inputs with fixed versions and an independently recomputable digest.
A fixture proves a mechanism can be exercised; it is not evidence of production operation or external validation.
Applied scope: DataCite relation types can express predecessor, successor, version-container, and version-of relationships between deposited resources.
Definition and operating context
The canonical concept owner is maha-research. This route may apply evidence; it cannot redefine or inherit the authority of its canonical owner.
This property may publish research objects, machine-readable provenance, reproduction protocols. It must not publish sales copy or unsupported interpretation.
Evidence and exact locators
Versioning — IsPreviousVersionOf; IsNewVersionOf; HasVersion; IsVersionOf. Establishes: DataCite relation types can express predecessor, successor, version-container, and version-of relationships between deposited resources.
What the evidence does not establish
Deposited relations do not prove identity, semantic equivalence, completeness, correctness, chronology outside the metadata, or that every version has been linked.
This route must not claim sales copy.
This route must not claim unsupported interpretation.

Questions this page can answer
What does Citation Lineage mean in this bounded context?
Citation Lineage, in this reproducibility fixture, is limited to the following inspected scope. DataCite relation types can express predecessor, successor, version-container, and version-of relationships between deposited resources. The answer carries the source boundaries forward and does not infer authority from a neighboring topic.
Which inspected sources support this fixture answer?
Versioning (living support documentation inspected 2026-09-06), at IsPreviousVersionOf; IsNewVersionOf; HasVersion; IsVersionOf, supports dataCite relation types can express predecessor, successor, version-container, and version-of relationships between deposited resources.
What does the evidence not establish?
Deposited relations do not prove identity, semantic equivalence, completeness, correctness, chronology outside the metadata, or that every version has been linked. Property boundary: This route may apply evidence; it cannot redefine or inherit the authority of its canonical owner.
Which definition or canonical owner must be read first?
This page is the local maha-research definition for its topic. Related applications may depend on it but may not silently redefine it.
What source, policy, implementation, or release change would require revision?
Re-evaluate this page when a cited source, locator, governing instrument, local implementation, or canonical definition changes. Publication also requires a matching exact-revision review and active canonical release.
