I am working three CCK Content Types, Paper, Subject, Author; and would like to assign a field (keywords or interests) to the author based on the Paper's keywords, so make node references as follows:

1) The Paper node is created, and nodreferences to Subject pages are filled in
2) The Paper Author nodereferences are created
3) The Author node automatically gets filed with nodereferences to the Subject

I don't know if it is at al possible! So any advise is appriciated

Hah, hello, I'm not following you around, I'm looking for similar information :)

Anyway, I think you could probably do this with a custom action with the Actions module, triggered on node save.

hey nought101, follow me around - I think we are all hitting on ideas here, and something good is bound to come out of it.

whoops! am I social networking in an issue queue?

Actions do work, but the app becomes rather cumbersome - all I want is a good, well-formed semantic representation of my data. There are modules out there which canonically implement the standards, but in a practical sense how?
