Change `CITATION.md` to `CITATION.cff`
It's a dedicated file format designed to promote code as research https://citation-file-format.github.io, but can also promote papers using the preferred syntax
I don't find .cff files at all useful, since no one in our field would know what to do with them. Let's do a .bib file with bibtex from ADS: https://ui.adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2023OJAp....6E..11T/exportcitation
The .cff format will enable copy-pastable citation in a dropdown menu on github, offering both APA and BibTex formats -
This has become a standard for software citations, but I'll also be happy to convert the .md file to a .bib file.
That's pretty cool, but I would rather not lose the extra metadata from the ADS entry,

Wouldn't a CITATION.cff, which only refers to the paper, be useful to benefit from this GitHub feature? An easy way to get a citation that you might not get otherwise. Can always also include a paper citation in the README like this.
Having a BibTex entry in the README and a .cff file to enable GitHub's feature sounds better imo. PyBaMM (BibTex in README, .cff file for GitHub) does the same too. I'll reopen this issue for more discussion.
