Tracking citations to research software via persistent identifiers is difficult due to dilution of citations over many PIDs assigned to a software package. On top of this, software citations are often consistently being edited out by every actor part of the scholarly communication process such as reference managers, publishers, professors and discovery systems. Thus, the survival rate of a software citation is extremely low in the current scholarly ecosystem.
