Mark up policy

Mark Up Work Flow

Media:slide1.jpg

this file diagrams the most recent and most detailed workflow we established, which includes editorial roles at Dartmouth. The steps below is a brief overview of the process.

These following steps outline the work flow for Textpresso markup starting with the acceptance of the paper by GENETICS and through to the incorporation of the paper into WB.

The responsible party is noted before each step.

Genetics (1) The paper gets accepted.

Genetics (2) A DOI is assigned to the paper

Genetics (3) A WBPaperID and URL are acquired through the ticketing form at: http://tazendra.caltech.edu/~azurebrd/cgi-bin/forms/journal/journal_paper_ticket.cgi

Genetics (4) The WBPaperID from the ticket issuer is attached to the XML

Genetics (5) the author is sent the generated URL to access the author form

Author (6) Authors provide the final source files and fills out the author first pass form within 48 hours of acceptance to GENETICS.

  • Author data populates journal first-pass tables in postgres, new objects are automatically added to the appropriate lexicon.
  • New object data from the journal first-pass form is sent to Karen, who makes sure the information is entered correctly
  • New data goes to the appropriate data curator for acedb object creation.
  • All other data populates author first-pass tables and paper is placed in the pipeline for first-pass curation (Juancarlos will make a filter so these papers will be prioritized for first-pass).

DJS (Dartmouth Journal Services) (~5-8) sends the final source file (in XML format) to Arun - deposits XML on a web service? http://textpresso-dev.caltech.edu/gsa/worm/incoming_xml/

  • An e-mail is sent to the QC curator that a paper is coming and to expect a follow up e-mail with a link to the linked paper and entity table.

Automatic (8) the paper is run through the linking script.

Juancarlos (~9) gets XML from Arun, populates bibliography information for WormBase.?

Script (10) sends markup back to DJS, this action is prompted by a submit button on QCFast.

Journal first-pass form (jfp) : GENETICS papers only

This is not a postgres table but is a form that collects extra data from Genetics authors, which is then stored in our author first pass table (afp).

The form URL is generated by Genetics through the doi ticket form.

The purpose of the genetics first pass form is to collect data objects that do not exist in WB already so that Arun can mark-up the Genetics paper and provide links for these objects.

New entities (postgres table) are collected for the following data types:

  • gene (genesymbol)
  • variations (extvariation)
  • CGC-sent strains (newstrains)
  • integrated transgene (transgene)
  • balancers
  • cell/anatomy(newcell)
  • phenotype

All of these fields, except genesymbol, do not show on the normal afp_form. We opted to make a hybrid of the afp_form for the Genetics authors so that they would not be requested to fill out another WB generated form for us after their paper was published and because we needed this extra information from them asap.

It is also my understanding that these authors would be required to fill out the form as part of the publication process, so this was an opportunity to have 100% author feedback for paper flagging.

Data curators are automatically alerted to the new data when the form is submitted.
