Goal
The goal of this task is to make sure Approved pathways are high-quality and up-to-date. Note: pathways tagged as Approved, are being downloaded everyday by researchers for data visualization and analysis.
Criteria for pathways to be approved:
- All interactions between genes, proteins and other pathway objects must be connected
- >90% of datanodes (genes, proteins, metabolites etc.) must be annotated with external database references
- Each pathway must have a complete description, meaning a minimum of 2-3 sentences summarizing the process that the pathway describes
- Each pathway must have at least one literature reference
- Each pathway must have a minimum of one pathway ontology term
- Pathway titles must adhere to our pathway title guidelines
Instructions
- Open the list of list of Approved pathways on WikiPathways Classic. You will need to be logged in at WikiPathways.
- Open each pathway on the list and review the edits made since the last tagged version and make sure the pathway still conforms to the criteria for Approved content (see above). Revert an edit, if necessary. Then update the faded Approved version tag by clicking on the Click here link in the tag.
If you have a question related to one of the pathways you reviewed, report it to our curation issues tracker by clicking the button below. Issues reported here will be discussed in the Community Curation meetings.
