Harmonize ontology identifier with Interlex #467

Open aeidi89 opened 1 year ago

aeidi89 commented 1 year ago

Suggestion to change "preferredOntologyIdentifier" to a list of all ontologyIdentifiers, and thus harmonize with how it is displayed in Interlex (example link: https://neuinfo.org/interlex/view/ilx_0751626?searchTerm=alzheimer).

I don't understand the suggestion. Interlex only shows a single "preferred identifier". It has a list of all identifiers, but only one of them is marked as preferred.

aeidi89 commented 1 year ago

That is true @apdavison, the idea is to have a list of 'ontologyIdentifiers', instead of or in addition to the 'preferredOntologyIdentifier'. This came from a case where openMINDS, Interlex and Knowledge Space all referred to different preferred ontology identifiers.

I agree it would be a good idea to add an array property ontologyIdentifier in addition to preferredOntologyIdentifier.

Fine with me. But this issue needs to move then to the repo where the schema is defined (openMINDS_controlledTerms).
