original identifier/original databse.

Can we find the reason for introduction of these terms. If it is OK can these be used where data is imported from a different database and we can use the original database and the identifier from this database? eg. Interaction data from huge etc.

I guess you refer to the following Cross reference 'source database' and 'originally assigned identifier' You are right they a bit redundant, the second one was created for IMEx partner only, I make it more clear in the definition and make the first parent of the second.

for now I have rephrased source reference definition as follow, to make it more clear it is a reference not to a source database record, but to a publication describing the originating database new definition Publication or document describing the originating resource where an interaction, or other curated information, was first described.
