Could a citation act as a link, or a link to be exported as a citation?

I've been reading you about cites. Conversation is above my head, but 
just in case it could be helpful, I would like to address a frequent 
problem in the workflow of taking notes, that advanced users suffer too.

When taking notes, it's usual to make some bibliographical references in 
one file and some related notes in a different file. I link both using 
internal links, but it can't be exported directly as a bibliography, 
which would be cool indeed.

Could a citation act as a link, or a link to be exported as a citation?

An example, could the link "[[id:20210607T083216.726761][...]]" be 
substituted by a cite, that takes you to the reference?

*Reference (from a .org file, as it is, but if it needed to had /.bib 
structure/ to kind of "unify" internal links and cites, would be fine too):*

To get better at it, I'd recommend reading the manual for the Memoir 
class [1]
(the first few chapters that talk about page design, at least, then 
refer to the
rest as needed) and Robert Bringhurst's THE ELEMENTS OF TYPOGRAPHIC 
STYLE [2]
(which will give you ideas you can implement and right away your 
documents will
look great).

Thanks, Jonathan

I don't know much about Hyperbole, but it looked kind of aside from 
orgmode. Not sure if I want to add that possible difficulty to orgmode 
parsers.

BTW, in the William's example I added before, it could work org-ref, 
because there are not subtrees, just by citing to the reference in a 
.bib file. But this wouldn't work with subtrees, where each subtree is a 
chapter of the referenced book.

Just a thought, maybe superficial and un-needed feature, just in case.

In general, a citation is conceptually a kind of specialized link.

And org-ref and now org-cite is designed around the possibility of
attaching actions to those citations. So, for example:

> An example, could the link "[[id:20210607T083216.726761][...]]" be substituted by a cite, that takes you to the reference?

The oc-basic processor has an at-point function that will do just
this, if by "reference" you mean the bibtex (and maybe ultimately csl
json) source entry.

Have you looked at org-roam and org-roam-bibtex?

If not, that might give you some ideas, as it heavily relies on org
links, but also has support for citations.

Plans there are to support org-cite, BTW.
