Schema validates successfully with 902 classes and 2043 slots.
- Added `has_or_had_place_of_birth` slot to capture structured birth place information with historical context.
- Introduced `has_or_had_quantity` slot for capturing quantified values with units and provenance.
- Created `has_or_had_service_area` slot to define geographic service areas for heritage custodians.
- Implemented `is_or_was_approximate` slot to indicate uncertainty in values (dates, quantities).
- Added `is_or_was_asserted_by` slot to track the agent responsible for assertions.
- Introduced `Asserter` class to model agents making assertions, including types like human, automated, and AI.
- Created `Quantity` class to represent quantified values with optional units and types.
- Added enums for `AsserterTypeEnum` and `QuantityTypeEnum` to standardize types of asserters and quantities.
- Archived outdated slots and replaced them with new structured alternatives following RiC-O conventions.
- Remove inline slot definitions from 144 class files
- Create 7 new centralized slot files in modules/slots/:
- custodian_type_broader.yaml
- custodian_type_narrower.yaml
- custodian_type_related.yaml
- definition.yaml
- finding_aid_access_restriction.yaml
- finding_aid_description.yaml
- finding_aid_temporal_coverage.yaml
- Add centralize_inline_slots.py automation script
- Update manifest with new timestamp
Rule 48: Class files must NOT define inline slots - all slots
must be imported from modules/slots/ directory.
Note: Pre-existing IdentifierFormat duplicate class definition
(in Standard.yaml and IdentifierFormat.yaml) not addressed in
this commit - requires separate schema refactor.
Apply same RiC-O-style slot naming refactor to /schemas/20251121/linkml/
that was previously applied to frontend/public/schemas/:
- Add 'has_' prefix for possession predicates
- Add 'is_or_was_' prefix for temporal inverse relationships
- Add 'has_or_had_' for bidirectional temporal relations
- Add new slots: is_or_was_aggregated_by, is_or_was_allocated_by, etc.
- Update count slots with proper descriptions
This ensures consistency between the source schema directory and the
frontend-served schemas.
