AW: "citation" property needed on ScholarlyArticle

Well, at least paintings do. Picasso's "Massacre in Korea" cites Goya's "The Third of May 1808" [1], and Magrittes "Perspective II. Manet's Balcony" [2] cites Monet's "The Balcony" [3] which in turn cites Goya's "Majas on a Balcony" [4]. So perhaps it does make sense to push citation up to CreativeWork, at least for paintings. I do not know about diets and software, though...
