permission to put BiGG IDs for metabolites in Wikidata #352

Open egonw opened 5 years ago

egonw commented 5 years ago

Would it be possible to get permissino to put the BiGG IDs for metabolites in (the CC0-licensed) Wikidata? That would allow Wikidata to link out to the BiGG database. I'm sure I can work out from the bigg_models_metabolites.txt file the mappings. For all things unclear, Mix'n'Match could be an option.

Yes, I think that's a great idea. We have to be careful with the licensing of the models (hence the "BiGG License"), but for identifiers it's not an issue and CC0 is fine.

Do you need anything from our end to do it?

egonw commented 5 years ago

Ideally, a download on the website, with your identifiers (maybe even the old ones) + InChIKey, so two, or three columns, as CC0. But I can go ahead, either way.

sounds good. Will track progress here

Couldn't you extract that from MetaNetX right now?

egonw commented 5 years ago

@Midnighter, no, at this moment that is not allowed (it's only CC-BY, not CC0).
