Prefix

Open chrishmorris opened this issue 3 months ago • 2 comments

Thank you for your ontologies, especially ncbislim.obo.

It uses the prefix "NCBITaxon:". This does not conform to the standard for CURIEs, which should be lower case, and is not the one used by identifiers.org, which uses "taxonomy". (BioPortal, which is similar to you but also non-compliant.)

I would like to suggest "ncbi.taxon:" as a prefix that perhaps everyone can agree on.

There is some more discussion on this here: https://github.com/identifiers-org/identifiers-org.github.io/issues/171 and in some email correspondence which I will be happy to copy you in to.

Convergence on this would help make everyone's data FAIR.
