From Christine: "Not showing existing metadata?" #69

Closed george08 closed 7 years ago

george08 commented 7 years ago

4 days ago: "The collections page for Medieval Manuscripts (https://gfs-oxford-explorer.herokuapp.com/collections/bod-medieval-manuscripts) shows "None of these things have metadata online" Even though the link to the "metadata online" goes to an online catalogue. This seems similar to the problem with digital.bodleian. For The Ashmolean China collections, though https://gfs-oxford-explorer.herokuapp.com/collections/ash-china it all seems to work fine. Is this a problem with the data in the spreadsheet? Is is because there is still [GFS to do count] in column H?"

This is an easy one to answer: we never ingested the bod-medieval-tei data as it was not one we had time for. As such no data is in the system. It shows up on the site because it is in the collections spreadsheet but we have not ingested the data so no items to link to.

You can see a summary of which source data was ingested and was not here in the inventory spreadsheet:

I think we need to start printing out this information on screen, where possible. So, for example, here we would say in a dot point:

"The data shown on this page is from the Summary level." (or whatever)
