Notes

  • Glossary Sprint
    • Instructions spreadsheet
    • We’d look at pages in spreadsheet groups, then add terms we are unaware of to the glossary page
    • For “Found at” add the URL so you point right to the page. But it’s unambiguous if you use the URL or page
    • It’s an open-ended ‘sprint’ with no set deadline, but that may change.
    • Potential for a MIG meeting to be a working meeting.
  • Draft Use Case :
    • Example -- add new taxonomy term while editing metadata
    • You want to add the new term to a taxonomy without disrupting your work. But how do we make that happen-- when your field has several vocabulaires linked to it?
    • Ideally: when you are adding a new term, a box pops up to ask which vocabulary you want that term to go to. This should be on the main form and not a different form.
    • When you start typing, and it tries to predict your answer -- if you don’t click the drop down (click outside the box) then you end up creating a duplicate term. Users need to add the node ID in brackets beside the term
    • This may be an accessibility issue, so maybe indicating a notation that tells you when you’re adding a new term.
    • It would be nice that if you select which vocab you want to add the term to, you can add the URL as well and be compatible with Alexander’s code.
    • https://www.drupal.org/project/inline_entity_form
    • Change Person name to Personal name to be more inclusive --- specially because the definition of Person is “a human name”. However, if you have a specific name for an animal you then couldn’t add it here…
    • Thinking like catalogers: want to make sure terms correspond with RDA and DACS as there are some gray-areas when it comes to Corporate Bodies vs. Geographic Locations (Churches, Parks, etc)
    • Would like to tweak Islandora’s definition of terms
    • We could create a document to indicate which changes we’d like, and indicate why we’d like those changes.

Next Meeting:

  • August 16, 2021
  • New topic: how are we dealing with translated titles? What are other people doing/what is the workaround.
  • Continue Use Cases conversation
  • Whitman’s experience with adding in taxonomy terms
