VIAF instead of ORCID

Hi there,

I have another question if you don’t mind. We would like to include VIAF for the authors, because most of them (in Germany) aren’t registered with ORCID and it would be a huge problem to request this. Is it possible to include VIAF?

Kind regards
Daniela Wolf

Looks like there is already a similar request here, also a quite recent one:

Thank you. Yes, this is exactly what we are looking for!

Kind regards
