Ontology browser peculiarities #1156

Open jmcmurry opened 8 years ago

jmcmurry commented 8 years ago

I was looking for an example disease with few phenotypes and so navigated up to disease, DOID:4 but found that the items underneath it were ... bonkers.

What I expected to see was:

Those things didn't even feature on the list; what I got instead was:

... and a thousand other extremely granular and unrelated entries

There is probably a good geeky reason for this to happen, it looks pretty peculiar to a user. Let's aim to remedy this when we refactor the ontology browser. cc: @DoctorBud

somewhere, i believe, i've recommended adding a grouping class for "uncategorized diseases" to place all these orphans. it would help bunches.

+1 to that. Perhaps I will assign this to Chris then as the problem stems from MONDO.

this may also require a bit of rejiggering in a couple of the data sources, as i may import their classes and place them as subclasses of DOID:4 (for example, KEGG and OMIA)
