Allow editors to identify the canonical data package in the Editor
trafficstars
Once we've implemented a way to display the canocial dataset on the dataset landing pages (#2541), then we should add a way for users to identify these originals when they exist.
Proposed solution
- Add a checkbox next to the "Alternative Identifier" input in the editor to allow users to flag a dataset as the original/source dataset when the one in MetacatUI is essentially a duplicate
- When checked, MetacatUI will automatically apply
schema.org:sameAsandprov:derivedFromannotations with URL with the DOI/UUID of the original as the object. - The alternative identifier must be a valid URL to allow the annotations to be generated correctly (where as alternative identifier in EML is not as strict).
Reminder: test how regular annotations appear when they are not bioportal identifiers as they all are currently.
