Consider linking funder entities to CrossRef's Funder Registry

One can't just assume that "NSF" is the US one. Could be Iran's, Georgia's, or Sri Lanka's.

Great point. Thanks @rossmounce. Will see what I can do about improving that.

Is the Crossref Funder Agency still the best standardized terminology for funders?

@rossmounce is there a site where we can look up funder IDs? Or a place to download the dataset in bulk?

@dhimmel I'm hoping it's all at the following link, but have not fully inspected it myself... https://gitlab.com/crossref/open_funder_registry

explained here: https://www.crossref.org/services/funder-registry/

This issue is pretty old, and I believe in the meanwhile ROR has been getting traction, and crossref are planning to phase out their registry in favour of ROR. I'm not sure if it's fully integrated yet, but many funders are already in ROR anyway

I'm happy for this to shift to ROR if that's the better current source and welcome related PRs if anyone was time/energy.
