For both citations and downloads, what you can allocate for your
organization on w3id.org should work. For more long-term identifiers
(that don't require technical infrastructure to be present), you might
look into DOIs.

This community is largely used to provide HTTP-based redirect URLs
that will take you from a short name like:

https://w3id.org/scilife/link123

to wherever you'd like to redirect that link, such as:

https://scilifelab.example/publications/238974/downloads/234

Hope that helps, Liane!
