links in slot 'sample collection device' description are broken.

[mslarae13]

The slot 'sample collection device' is a MIxS modified slot.

We should review how we modified it, and correct the broken links.

"Description: The device used to collect an environmental sample. This field accepts terms listed under environmental sampling device (http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/ENVO). This field also accepts terms listed under specimen collection device (http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/GENEPIO_0002094)."

Thanks @mslarae13

The name of the slot you're talking about here is samp_collec_device. Thanks for providing the title.

@sujaypatil96 will be taking the lead on broken link diagnosis and repair. I have asked @eecavanna to help, and also for @dwinston to help on the off chance that broken links in the schema can be traced to our new link redirection based on w3id and the nmdc-runtime API.

In this case, the text you have provided matches the content of MIxS 6.1.1, so those broken links aren't due to a modification that any of us did.

The same description is present in MIxS 6.2.0, but the name of the slot has been changed to samp_collect_device. Chris H made that name change (along with a few similar ones) with the support of GSC.

So here are my suggestions:

• @sujaypatil96 works with everyone mentioned in this issue to detect truly broken links. (We have seen that the lychee link checker, at least in its default configuration, mislabels some links that require redirection as "broken")
  • Identify all broken hyperlinks in NMDC Schema documentation #1465
• @mslarae13 and any other NMDC teammate continues to raise issues abut high priority broken links
  • whoever makes a new nmdc-schema broken link issue checks whether that broken link is present in the MIxS 6.2.0 source file, and starts a MIxS issue if necessary. I can help people get started with this process.
• we decide when we're going to do this merge
  • change nmdc-schema's MIxS import to GSC's 6.2 YAML #1368
