leaf trait/stage name consistency #46

Closed stuckyb closed 7 years ago

stuckyb commented 7 years ago

Another naming consistency issue. We have 'vascular leaf phenological stage', but the corresponding trait cluster is 'leaf presence', 'leaves absent', 'leaves present'. We should probably use consistent naming for clarity. Either use "vascular" in all four or don't use it in any.

I lean towards making explicit the term "vascular" for all.

Using vascular in all would be consistent with PO. Longer labels, but I think we can live with that.

stuckyb commented 7 years ago

I made these changes with commit c79c90e, but now I wonder if the term we want to use is "true leaf", not "vascular leaf". "vascular leaf" includes cotyledons, and our stages and traits concern vascular leaves that are not cotyledons; i.e., true leaves.

Lets do "true leaf" -- I am convinced. -r

I'm okay with using true leaf, but Brian, as I am in the midst of editing, so please don't make any changes for the next few hours.

Also, if you changed all these labels, does that mean that all the definitions that use them have to change? I'm inclined to leave things as they are until we do the data ingest.

Okay, sounds good -- will switch to 'true leaf' at some point when Ramona's not making other changes. Yes, if labels change, all the definitions that use them need to change, too, but OntoPilot will make sure that there are no "orphan" labels used anywhere.

@stuckyb - I will not make any edits before Monday, so hack away at the labels!

stuckyb commented 7 years ago

Changed to "true leaf/leaves" with commit 52d618e.
