From a80de2ba8ac584ecab45dd09cf5b007ab73a3335 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Damien Goutte-Gattat Date: Mon, 23 Dec 2024 17:39:07 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] Amend Uberon editor SOP about "abbreviation" synonyms. The Uberon editor SOP is still recommending that synonyms that are abbreviations should be marked with the synonym type http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/uberon/core#ABBREVIATION. We have phased out the use of this particular synonym type several months (maybe years?) ago, in favour of the OMO-defined synonym type OMO:0003000. So here we simply amend the SOP to recommend using the OMO-defined type. --- docs/uberon-editor-sop.md | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/docs/uberon-editor-sop.md b/docs/uberon-editor-sop.md index a103c1eca..1cd5f7a5c 100644 --- a/docs/uberon-editor-sop.md +++ b/docs/uberon-editor-sop.md @@ -119,7 +119,7 @@ Guidelines on the type of synonyms: Example: the terms “aorta wall”, “aortic wall” and “wall of aorta” all refer to the exact same concept and would be considered exact synonyms.

Additionally, within the biomedical domain, it can also represent 'brachial artery' or 'Bone Age', two other distinct concepts with separate OBO ontology terms.
