Banana Dating

When DwC record has been shared to GBIF, then it might have been annotated on Bionomia, so I want to take advantage of that work.

The goal is, to start, add global identifiers to People in TW that do not have them. That's all.

This task is a dating app.

• [ ] It finds capital P People that are referenced in these objects
• [ ] It filters by People that don't have Global identifiers
• [ ] It prioritizes People that have been used the most
• [ ] It presents a single Person
• [ ] It presents a matching Person via an API call to Bionomia
• [ ] It presents an option to link to that Person in a new tab in Bionomia
• [ ] It presents and option to modal-preview the related DwcOccurences in TW

Conceptually:

• [ ] Swipe right to accept the match (POST a new global identifier to that Person) and move to the next Person without a GUID
• [ ] Do something else, like skip to the next person, or present a second result from Bananomia

If we're talking perusing Bionomia "Agent Strings" (not people) for ones like what we have in TW. Random bits follow

• [ ] add some way to see (or go to) the suggested hit in Bionomia. Seeing the records for that Person can help.
  • [ ] example: the Person I seek has collected [some taxonomic group/s]. Does the person in Bionomia have any specimens from said group/s?
  • [ ] example: the Person I seek was collecting (or doing determinations) "a long time ago." Seeing the records for that particular returned person ... I can see the years active (based on dates found in dwc:eventDate or dwc:dateIdentified

  • [ ] if Wikidata Q number is returned, go to the wikidata page? (or view it from inside TW?) This allows us to see other known bits about said person.

From the as "work has been done in Bionomia" scenario, say, our INHS Insect Collection Dataset, then what is needed is a way for Tommy to see what records have identifiers in them (that didn't when the records when to GBIF). Maybe that's what you're describing above. In which case, you're accepting (or not) the identifier someone applied to that record. There won't be a second option to return a different person.

Made some additions to the JSON-LD-based search, which is heavier and more informative than the autocomplete search API, though the two share some characteristics.

Here's an example: https://api.bionomia.net/user.jsonld?q=mcelrath

...co-collectors, families collected/identified, image, description, etc. using schema.org. Wikidata-based results will include birth/death dates. HTH find a date for this Saturday night, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sl751CDdRZI

@debpaul I believe here we're talking people/users insofar as Bionomia knows rather than its agents. Swiping left/right on an agent string would make for a lonely Saturday night.
