=== Literature Migration to the Alliance ABC ===
 +
==== Use Cases for Searches and Validation in the ABC (or, what are your common actions in the curation status form)? ====

* https://docs.google.com/document/d/1iwKs7K87DgbDopIzg9uRlZ9eoxbza2Gd05eaEPjpxn8/edit?usp=sharing
+
* Search ABC with paper identifier
* Document includes screenshots and text, which is subject to change.  Voiceover/basic video should be ready by the end of this week.  Additional video editing will be added later, including captions, an intro with footage of scientists, and visual aids (eg. arrows, boxes etc.)
+
* Migrate to Topic and Entity Editor
 +
* View all associated data
 +
* Manually validate flags, if needed
  
=== Alliance data refresh ===
+
=== PDF Storage ===
* Data refresh for 1.4 release
+
* At the Alliance PDFs will be stored in Amazon s3
* Is this for databases that have more frequent updates, such as daily updates? Does this apply to WB at all? Have to ask Kevin Howe if WB will have a data refresh.
+
* We are not planning to formally store back-up copies elsewhere
** Kevin responded: There is a WB refresh for Alliance 1.4 release based on WS264
+
* Is this okay with everyone?
  
=== Phenotype graph bug ===
+
==February 8, 2024==
* Maybe related to https issues
+
* TAGC
* May need to update server to serve https requests
+
** Prominent announcement on the Alliance home page?
* GitHub ticket: https://github.com/WormBase/website/issues/6326
 
* Juancarlos and Raymond working on
 
  
=== Essential gene lists ===
+
* Fixed login on dockerized system (dev). Can everybody test their forms?
* Several requests for the essential gene list over the years
 
* Difficult to query this out of ACEDB
 
* Chris generated a Postgres query to pull out all allele-phenotype annotations with "lethal", "sterile" or descendant phenotypes, including meta data including penetrance, background genotype, etc.
 
  
=== Acquiring list of ontology term descendants ===
+
==February 1, 2024==
* Raymond has URL constructor, for private/internal use; will share internally
+
* Paul will ask Natalia to take care of pending reimbursements
* URL will return all ontological descendants, including all "is_a", "part_of", and "regulates"
+
* Dockerized system slow pages (OA and FPKMMine). Will monitor these pages in the future. Will look for timeouts in the nginx logs.
* Phenotypes only have "is_a" relationships anyway, so not an issue
 
  
=== Gene set enrichment analysis: duplicate genes ===
+
==January 25, 2024==
* GitHub ticket: https://github.com/WormBase/website/issues/6300
 
* Issue where duplicate genes are not removed from input and are displayed in output
 
* We want to make clear to users that the duplicates are not counted multiple times in analysis
 
  
=== Gene names existing as secondary names for different genes ===
+
=== Curator Info on Curation Forms ===
* Many genes (120+) have primary names that are also secondary names of other genes
+
* Saving curator info using cookies in dockerized forms. Can we deploy to prod?
* Causes confusion in terms of data attribution
 
* e.g. mdh-1 and mdh-2: mdh-2 has "mdh-1" as an other name even though these are distinct genes
 
* May be good for curators to make sure, for their data type, the correct genes are annotated to the correct data
 
* Jae will send around list of problematic gene names
 
  
== April 19, 2018 ==
+
=== ACKnowledge Author Request - WBPaper00066091 ===
 +
* I am more than willing to assist; however, the task exceeds the capabilities of the normal flagging process.
  
=== Biocuration ===
+
* The paper conducts an analysis of natural variations within 48 wild isolates. To enhance the reliability of the variant set, I utilized the latest variant calling methods along with a custom filtering approach. The resulting dataset comprises 1,957,683 unique variants identified using Clair3. Additionally, Sniffles2 was used to identify indels of >30 bp, which numbered in the thousands to tens of thousands for most wild isolates. It is worth noting that variants identified with Sniffles2 have less reliable nucleotide positions in the genome.

=== Postgres reading access ===
+
* I am reaching out to inquire whether WormBase would be interested in incorporating this dataset. An argument in favor is the higher quality of my data. However, I am mindful of the potential substantial effort involved for WormBase, and it is unclear whether this aligns with your priorities.
* Coko will start generating submission forms as part of the platform build, can we have read access to postgres for them to get WB entities?
 
  
=== AFP ===
+
* Should WormBase decide to use my variant data set, I am more than willing to offer my assistance.
 +
 
 +
=== Update on NN Classification via the Alliance ===
 +
* Use of primary/not primary/not designated flag to filter papers
 +
* Secondary filter on papers with at least C. elegans as species
 +
* Finalize sources (i.e. evidence) for entity and topic tags on papers
 +
* Next NN clasification scheduled for ~March
 +
 
 +
* We decided to process all papers (even non-elegans species) and have filters on species after processing.
 +
* NNC html pages will show NNC values together with species.
 +
* Show all C. elegans papers first and other species in a separate bin.
