Contributing

Contributions are welcome! Please submit all pull requests to https://github.com/pharmacome/terminology.

Tips:

  • When adding a new term, make sure that the entry has a new and unique identifier that follows the regular expression ^HBP\d{5}$
  • Only capitalize proper nouns in term labels (e.g., Tau is a named protein, so it is capitalized but hyperphosphorylation is not)
  • Normalize greek letters to full english names, then add synonyms with the greek letter.
  • References should follow the https://identifiers.org semantic web style (e.g., pmid:1234, pmid:1245, pmc:PMC1234, etc.)
