Wormbase Gene ID edit

Originally proposed at Wikidata:Property proposal/Natural science

Done: Wormbase Gene ID (P3860) (Talk and documentation)

Description	Identifier for a genetic element in Wormbase
Data type	External identifier
Domain	items that are subclass of (P279) gene (Q7187) and found in taxon (P703) any item whose parent taxon is Nematoda (Q5185)
Allowed values	[^\s\/]+
Example	daf-2 (Q3661684) -> WBGene00000898
Source	http://www.wormbase.org
Planned use	Will add Wormbase IDs to all genes of Caenorhabditis elegans (Q91703)
Formatter URL	http://www.wormbase.org/db/gene/gene?name=$1;class=Gene
Robot and gadget jobs	Will be performed by ProteinBoxBot (talk)
See also	Mouse Genome Informatics ID (P671), Saccharomyces Genome Database ID (P3406), FlyBase (Q3074571)

Motivation

Caenorhabditis elegans (Q91703) is a highly studied eukaryotic model organism. Wormbase provides comprehensive integrated biological information about this species. The ID will be used to link C. elegans (and eventually other nematode) genes in WikiData to their counterparts in Wormbase. Gstupp (talk) 20:32, 3 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Discussion

So, to clarify the formatter URL issue, Wormbase supports multiple subspecies of worms. It looks like you could use the pattern: http://www.wormbase.org/db/gene/gene?name={1};class=Gene It appears to correctly redirect to the appropriate species page given the identifier. e.g.http://www.wormbase.org/db/gene/gene?name=WBGene00220262;class=Gene does get you to the non c-elegans gene: http://www.wormbase.org/species/b_malayi/gene/WBGene00220262 --I9606 (talk) 21:45, 3 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
