1. Moving forward with Alliance-friendly Person pages for community curation/authorship tracking
Needed for

Problems:

  • this is not an Alliance-wide interest for tracking their communities person; however, Alliance is not against person pages, just not supportive of developing this class into the many ways it will be useful for us and our communities
  • need to do this outside of Alliance

Action

  • Paul talks to zfin about interest in person pages
  • Juancarlos talks to Cecilia -need to know important elements to make author to person connection for biolink schema
  • Daniela and Karen invite PomBase to start harmonizing a person model, will send all Alliance an invite

Will do

  • create biolink model based on current WB postgres/Caltech model
  • Adam will add tables when we have them

2. Need to make sure CenGen stuff is included in this next release - need to request Todd to delay release until Adam returns from vacation to deal with it.

1. Help desk ticket on citing the bar graph / FPKM expression data from selected modENCODE libraries - okay to just cite WormBase or should the user cite additional, or other, resources/publications?

  • Okay to cite WormBase, but also ask user to cite the WormBase paper (for now NAR, but in the future, Genetics)
  • Update the WB page on citing WormBase

2. CeNGEN data on Gene page for WS282. A short blog to highlight.

3. Server room in Braun power down for no apparent reason. Reset.
