Phenotype/ontology display
- Alphabetical lists not necessarily most helpful, take advantage of the ontology
- Todd: sometimes more specific terms are most useful, don't necessarily want to group towards most general terms.
- Some widgets overloaded with information. Make overview more helpful.
- Should be easy to see if, e.g., a gene has a null allele.
Community contributions, "wiki-style editing"
- Focus on constrained forms instead.
- Keep a clear distinction between data submissions and comments.
- There is already a comment system. Could be promoted better.
- Is there a notification system when someone leaves a comment?
- MA is writing a Gazette article about community curation. Will mention the comment system.
Date last reviewed
- There is interest in capturing this data.
- High priority targets are gene structures and concise descriptions.
- Also questions at the meeting about how to see when a gene structure last changed. New isoforms, etc., are NOT currently captured in the history widget.
- OMIM has a "last reviewed on" field at the bottom of each page.
- Should we be curating complete gene pages?
