== March 5, 2020 ==
 
  
=== WormBase curation ===
+
== April 2, 2020 ==
* Tim Schedl: WB needs to do more curation for phenotype and variation
 
* Doing community curation, but not fast enough
 
* Would like to work on more automation; e.g. having Textpresso return all sentences mentioning an allele in papers that are predicted to have phenotype data
 
  
=== Alaksa ===
+
=== Community phenotype requests ===
* Joesph may be able to meet with Raymond
+
* March 9-28
* How can the tool be maintained? If it can't it needs to be pulled
+
* 2,548 emails went out; 89 bounced; 6 resent; 13 backup; 2,478 successful emails
 +
* 361 annotations overall
 +
* 48 papers requested received curation (2% response rate)
 +
* 53 distinct papers overall (5 papers without request)
 +
* 53 distinct persons overall
  
=== Single cell expression tool ===
+
=== Community curation volunteers ===
* Tool is here: http://de.wormcells.com/
+
* Tracking volunteers [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ldECC44PXMilcDO6ctz-8AkRZntfDoV0Wtc4F-T_Zvg/edit?usp=sharing here]
* What do we need to consider for pulling into WormBase?
+
* 14 volunteers so far, all have been assigned a WBPerson ID
* Where does the data sit and how does the tool access it? Can we integrate the data more into WormBase (e.g. local curation databases)?
+
* Chris will set up a webinar tutorial in the coming week or two
** Would want it to be in sync with WormBase releases
 
** May not need to reprocess with every release with current (small-ish) data set
 
* Fully integrated tool versus an embedded tool?
 
  
=== Name service updates ===
+
=== AFP pipeline ===
* For now we will stick to the CGIs that Juancarlos has built for variations and strains
+
* Will resend email requests to authors that haven't already responded
* Juancarlos can discuss with Matt R. and Sibyl the possibility of integrating API requests to the Name service into a CGI form for the OA
+
* May also send out for older papers
 +
* May work with people to help
 +
* Does the old AFP form still work? It should
 +
* If someone has a link to the old form, they won't get one for the new form
 +
* Maybe could set up an automatic redirect from the old form to the new form
 +
* Received many submissions recently (>20% response rate)
  
 +
=== Ontology Annotator ===
 +
* Need to work on Genotype OA dumper
 +
* Turns out semicolons are problematic (currently in genotypes and transgenes) for object names (ontology fields)
 +
* Ampersands (&) are also problematic for object names in the OA

=== Use Slack More ===
 
 
=== Cancelled meetings ===
 
* Meetings are being cancelled, including Biocuration 2020. Ranjana will update our Wormbase meeting page with a note to users (done)
 
* We should start doing online advertisement for micropublications with webinars
 
 
 
=== Storing invalid/avoided WBPersons and email addresses in Postgres ===
 
* Currently Chris has been maintaining ([https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1FHhQk_IZIBLYkOUdVf9Kfh5zx66rkHOEVFQQ6wzT2ks/edit?usp=sharing on Google sheets]) a list of papers, people, and email addresses to omit from future WormBase outreach requests
 
* Valerio would like to add these to Postgres to keep a more central repository of them
 
* Chris would still like to be able to readily update/edit the content of those lists
 
 
 
* Proposed solutions: Keep the list in a flat file and have a cron job to sync the data to postgres daily or create a simple form to create/modify entries directly in postgres
 
 
 
=== Updates on Alaska ===
 
 
 
Raymond and Eduardo met with Joseph and decided to have the tool running as is for now even though maintaining it can be hard
 
The future plan is to move the platform to Google colab to reduce maintainance work.
 
 
 
==Nameservice discussion==
 
*Getting a token has worked for Chris and Ranjana
 
*Karen and Daniela need to get tokens
 
 
 
==Noctua GO-CAM updates==
 
*Noctua is a production tool available for annotations right now
 
*Create as many interconnected models and make available for curators is the ongoing goal
 
*Reactome models are in the process of being imported
 
*Real time validation messages as curation is being done, is being worked on
 
*Kimberly will send out the details for logging into Noctua and make sure all curators are on the login list
 
 
 
 
 
== March 19, 2020 ==
 
 
 
=== Citace Upload ===
 
* Tuesday, March 31st
 
 
 
=== Latest ACEDB ===
 
* Getting latest ACEDB build from staging FTP (for descriptions, etc.)
 
 
 
=== Storing email addresses/persons to omit from requests ===
 
* Chris and Juancarlos will work on a form to submit email addresses and WBPerson IDs to Postgres
 
 
 
=== Mailing lists ===
 
* Let Todd know if you want to keep your caltech.edu account on the mailing lists
 
 
 
 
 
==March 26th==
 
===Community curation===
 
*Do we need to publicize any data form and urge Users to contribute? The AFP and phenotype forms already send targeted e-mail
 
* Paul S. is getting people from the lab to do phenotype curation; Chris G will run a tutorial for interested people
 
* Blog about phenotype form to make people generally aware
 
* Could the phenotype form be adapted for other species? Possibly but depends on:
 
** Whether genotypes could be loaded and recognized
 
 
 
=== AFP for older papers ===
 
* Discussed recently
 
* Many (all?) Old papers have already gone through the old AFP pipeline
 
* Need to check what has already been curated
 
 
 
=== Omit form ===
 
* http://tazendra.caltech.edu/~postgres/cgi-bin/omit_form.cgi
 
* Can view, add, or edit persons, email addresses, and IP addresses to omit from email requests (and IP addresses to block)
 
 
 
=== Problems accessing Textpresso Central ===
 
* Ranjana had noticed that the server was acting slow
 
* Unknown problem; hard to pin down
 
* Definitely a Caltech network system
