Curatorial Policy — Zenodo Community: Theory of Objectivity (TO)

1. Overview

The Theory of Objectivity (TO) Zenodo Community serves as an official digital repository for scholarly, philosophical, and scientific materials related to Vidamor Cabannas’s Theory of Objectivity, including publications, datasets, models, translations, and collaborative research documents.

Its purpose is to ensure the open, accurate, and permanent preservation of materials that contribute to the study, dissemination, and peer review of TO as a unified logical–ontological framework for understanding the universe.

2. Mission Statement

The mission of this community is to curate, preserve, and disseminate works that explore, develop, or critically engage with the Seven Absolute Truths and their applications to physics, cosmology, ontology, logic, mathematics, and consciousness studies.

The community promotes open science, philosophical rigor, and cross-disciplinary dialogue between philosophy, mathematics, and physics.
All materials are made freely available under open-access licenses to foster transparent scientific collaboration.

3. Scope of Curation

The community accepts the following types of contributions:

  • Primary Works by Vidamor Cabannas, including books, articles, essays, diagrams, and formal theoretical expositions.
  • Academic Papers, Reviews, and Commentaries written by other researchers engaging with the Theory of Objectivity.
  • Datasets, Simulations, and Mathematical Models that formalize or test TO’s logical propositions or cosmological hypotheses.
  • Translations of TO works into other languages (with appropriate permissions).
  • Conference Presentations, Theses, or Lectures derived from or referencing TO.
  • Collaborative AI Analyses (e.g., dialogues, evaluations, or reasoning transcripts with verified artificial intelligence systems, used as co-analytical tools).

Materials must align with the general goals of advancing the academic, scientific, or logical understanding of the Theory of Objectivity.

4. Submission Criteria

To ensure academic integrity and transparency, submissions must:

  1. Be original, scholarly, or analytically relevant to the Theory of Objectivity.
  2. Include metadata with the following elements:
    • Author(s) full name(s) and institutional affiliation(s);
    • Abstract and keywords;
    • License information (preferably Creative Commons Attribution (CC-BY));
    • DOI (Digital Object Identifier) if available;
    • References in a recognized citation format (APA, Chicago, or similar).
  3. Be submitted in PDF, DOCX, TEX, or dataset-compatible format.
  4. Contain no defamatory, promotional, or non-academic material.
  5. Use English, Portuguese, Spanish, or French for metadata; multilingual abstracts are encouraged.

5. Review and Acceptance Process

All submissions undergo curatorial review by the TO Curatorial Board, consisting of editors and reviewers appointed by the group administrator (Vidamor Cabannas or a designated curator).

The review process ensures that materials:

  • Are thematically relevant to the Theory of Objectivity;
  • Maintain scientific, philosophical, or logical quality;
  • Include accurate metadata and proper citations;
  • Respect Zenodo’s and CERN’s content guidelines.

Curators may provide feedback or request minor revisions before acceptance. The review process is non-anonymous and non-adversarial, emphasizing collaboration and accuracy.

6. Licensing and Accessibility

All accepted works must be published under open-access licenses, preferably Creative Commons Attribution (CC-BY 4.0) or CC BY-NC-SA 4.0, unless otherwise justified.
All files will remain permanently accessible under Zenodo’s long-term digital preservation infrastructure.

Curators ensure compliance with the FAIR Data Principles:

  • Findable: Each record is assigned a DOI and descriptive metadata.
  • Accessible: All content is openly available through Zenodo.
  • Interoperable: Metadata adheres to standard ontologies (Dublin Core, DataCite).
  • Reusable: Licensing and documentation enable reuse and citation.

7. Metadata Standards

Each record must include:

  • Title and authorship
  • Abstract and keywords
  • Date of publication
  • Persistent Identifier (DOI or URL)
  • Institutional affiliation
  • Version number (if applicable)
  • Language(s)
  • Funding information (if relevant)
  • Citation format (Chicago or APA preferred)

Additional optional metadata:

  • Related publications or datasets
  • ORCID identifiers
  • AI collaboration statements

8. Ethical and Legal Compliance

All contributions must adhere to:

  • Academic integrity and citation ethics;
  • Copyright and licensing laws (no unauthorized reproductions);
  • Zenodo’s community guidelines and CERN’s terms of service;
  • Ethical use of AI collaboration (AI tools must be credited as analytical assistants, not human co-authors).

Any detected plagiarism, falsification, or unauthorized content will result in removal of the record.

9. Governance and Curation Roles

  • Founder and Principal Curator: Vidamor Cabannas (Denivaldo Silva)
  • Scientific Curators: Invited specialists in philosophy of science, physics, and mathematical logic.
  • Editorial Assistants: Volunteer researchers managing metadata standardization and DOI integration.
  • Technical Support: Managed via Zenodo and CERN Open Science platform.

Curators may update records to maintain metadata accuracy, ensure compliance with open-access policies, and preserve version integrity.

10. Community Objectives

The Theory of Objectivity community aims to:

  • Provide an authoritative, open repository for all works related to TO;
  • Promote international collaboration and interdisciplinary research;
  • Encourage dialogue between philosophy, mathematics, and physics;
  • Support publication of peer-reviewed studies derived from TO;
  • Preserve the intellectual and historical development of the theory for future generations.
