suggest to change name relation "NONE" to "NOT_FOUND" #76

Open jhpoelen opened 2 years ago

jhpoelen commented 2 years ago

as suggested by @jrhillae in context of https://github.com/jrhillae/GRIIS/issues/2

currently, if names cannot be aligned, a NONE relation is generated.

@jrhillae suggested to replace this NONE relation with NOT_FOUND .

so instead of:

providedId providedName relation resolvedId resolvedName
NA Donald duck NONE NA Donald duck

say:

providedId providedName relation resolvedId resolvedName
NA Donald duck NOT_FOUND NA Donald duck

curious to hear whether @qgroom , @SabinaVlad and others might have some ideas on this - what would be a good way to say "hey, this name was not found, or unknown, in the selected taxonomic context (e.g., catalogue of life)
