Consider systematically adding _all_ superclass relations we have removed as metadata?

[matentzn]

I am thinking about a more systematic treatment of "mondo:excluded_subClassOf". We have sometimes been asked how the Mondo classification differs from other sources. Given our focus on the integration of different resources, it may be a cool feature to add all direct parents using "mondo:excluded_subClassOf" that we have actively removed. Basically, completing what we started here:

https://www.ebi.ac.uk/ols4/ontologies/mondo/classes/http%253A%252F%252Fpurl.obolibrary.org%252Fobo%252FMONDO_0018961

I think this would be super cool metadata, and probably very interesting to our users.

this is a great idea!

We could consider renaming 'excluded subClass Of' to a label that may be more meaningful/interpretable by external users, like 'other classification in external source' or some such? The point is to show how other ontologies classify this concept.

We could ask OLS if we could add an info box to show the definition of the property that is being displayed.

Consideration: Should we have a different property label for superclasses that have been manually curated by the curation team (currently excluded subClass Of) vs terms that are excluded via the ingest?

the point is to show how other ontologies are classifying terms vs how we are doing it (and could be informative for us to see if we are missing any classifications)

Action item:

• [ ] if everyone agrees, Nico to write a pipeline that adds these components
• [ ] remove from release (while it is in beta phase)
• [ ] curation team to review
• [ ] then decide if we want to do this in the release

Discussed on technical call, we will proceed
