From https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/policies.html

Citations in the ‘Description’ field of the DESCRIPTION file should be in author-year style, followed by a DOI or ISBN for published materials, or a URL otherwise. Preferably, the year and identifier would be enclosed, respectively, in parentheses and angle brackets

Looks like these citations are becoming desired.
