Collect more information for Synonym proposals

[twhetzel]

It would be useful to collect more information for synonym proposals. For Mondo curation, it would be useful to:

• include the qualifier synonym type ABBREVIATION for any kind (exact, related, narrow, broad) of synonym
• include the submitter's ORCID

Using the current BioPortal UI implementation (Feb 2024), this is not possible.

the qualifier feature already exits:

• create exact synonym "abcd" for ABC:1234

or am I misunderstanding something? If so, could you give me an example?

[matentzn]

There are two confusion orthogonal qualifier concepts here:

1. Synonym precision (exact, broad, related etc)
2. Synonym types (abbreviation, layperson, acronym, etc)

They are implemented very differently in owl and layered on top of each other. Every synonym MUST have a precision, and may have, in a addition, one or more synonym types (the "or more" is rare). So an abbreviation, for example would be "exact" + "abbreviation" (1 precision qualifier and one synonym type)
