Suggestion/question: Additional ContributionType entries? #49
Description
Activity
@stevewds thank you for raising this issue and yes :) we are happy to add other ContributionTypes
For our contribution types I suggest to add:
- "point of contact"
- "data provision" or "data publication"
@apdavison @olinux @tgbugs @aeidi89 please provide feedback before I initiate the respective PRs on openMINDS_controlledTerms
Maybe "data upload"?
I think 'point of contact' works fine.
I prefer 'data provision' out of the two.
To me, 'data upload' is associated more with the process than the person.Thanks all. Point of contact is great I think.
For "The person who submitted the data to an archive", I think using "data provision" might be a little vague. It indicates someone who provided or found the data, but it is vague as to whether the person doing the provision provided the data to the study or provided the data to some other entity. For example, if someone hired a company to perform a survey that was to be analyzed the study, the term "data provision" might be equally appropriate to that role as to someone who uploads the dataset to a repository.
Do you all agree?
What about "Dataset submitter" ?
Is it possible to add some new ContributionType entries?
Right now there are "coordination", "data collection", "data management", "data processing", "information technology support", "laboratory assistance", "marketing", "metadata management". (

For our project it would be useful to add the following:
