Nextclade Web: consider rethinking dataset badges #1463

Open ivan-aksamentov opened 1 month ago

Reported by @tsibley here

External datasets like this are tagged "community", e.g.

image

and while I get why this is, it feels potentially pretty confusing to users. In particular because a) this is an official nextstrain.org core dataset and b) nextstrain.org has its own meaning for "community dataset". Should we rethink the UI here a little? Mark https://nextstrain.org core datasets as "official"? Or with some other label than "community"? (These are unification/integration pains, which feel hard, but also worth it.)

Current logic is something like

badge = dataset_collection == "nextstrain" ? "official" : "community"

We might simply display the name of the collection instead. And if no collection, then some static value e.g. "external" or nothing at all
