Landing page for draft DOI while a work is still under review #2204

Description

@astrochun

User story

As a submitter/depositor, I need my draft DOI to resolve to a landing page, so that when I include the draft DOI in a citation in a draft paper, my readers and reviewers can see that the link is not broken--just pending publication.

Current Design

The DOIs we share upon creation of a new submission do not resolve to any page in PDC. Instead, they go to an error page from DOI.org:

This confuses readers and reviewers of draft papers where the draft DOI appears, making them think the author might have made a mistake with the citation. For example, we have this direct feedback from a PPPL reviewer:

Feedback: It seems that our authors are putting in links to the PDC data sets in their papers, which is great, but the links just show up as dead links until the data set is published. Since there may be some delay between journal publication and PDC data set publication, and the link is already fixed, is it possible to ask the PDC people to change the 'link doesn't exist' error to a 'this data set is being finalized for publication, please come back later' message, or something similar?

New Design

We need draft DOIs for PDC works under review to resolve to a simple landing page in Discovery that assures readers and reviewers that the DOI is real, but the dataset is not available yet.

This would only apply to works with DOIs drafted by PDC but not yet approved. It should not change the embargo behavior.

Acceptance criteria

  • When a DOI is minted for a new submission in Describe by clicking "Create New" on the "New Submission" screen, generate a landing page in Discovery with the following properties:
    • The draft DOI's URL resolves to the PDC landing page, not the error page from DOI.org
    • The page heading is "Publication Pending"
    • The subheading is "DOI: [insert draft DOI]", where the inserted DOI is just the prefix and suffix (not the full URL)
    • The body is 3 paragraphs, as follows:
      • "This dataset is currently under review."
      • "Once approved, it will be published at this location:"
      • Insert the DOI as a full URL (which resolves to this same landing page)
  • The DOI is also tagged in the page meta (see https://support.datacite.org/docs/landing-pages)
  • The embargo workflow is not affected by this (embargoed works get the same landing page as before)
  • There is a test for this
