kempersc fa5680f0dd Add initial versions of custodian hub UML diagrams in Mermaid and PlantUML formats 
- Introduced custodian_hub_v3.mmd, custodian_hub_v4_final.mmd, and custodian_hub_v5_FINAL.mmd for Mermaid representation.
- Created custodian_hub_FINAL.puml and custodian_hub_v3.puml for PlantUML representation.
- Defined entities such as CustodianReconstruction, Identifier, TimeSpan, Agent, CustodianName, CustodianObservation, ReconstructionActivity, Appellation, ConfidenceMeasure, Custodian, LanguageCode, and SourceDocument.
- Established relationships and associations between entities, including temporal extents, observations, and reconstruction activities.

Session Summary: Legal Entity Refactoring Complete

Date: 2025-11-22
Schema Version: 20251121
Session Focus: Complete refactoring of entity type model to proper legal entity classes

Executive Summary

Successfully replaced the flat EntityTypeEnum with a comprehensive, ontology-aligned legal entity model consisting of 8 new classes and updated 7 slot definitions. This refactoring provides proper legal entity classification following ISO 20275 standards, TOOI patterns, and W3C Registered Organization Vocabulary (ROV).

Key Achievement: Transformed simple string-based entity type tracking into a fully structured, temporal, jurisdiction-aware legal entity model suitable for formal organizational description.

What Changed

1. New Classes Created (8 classes)

Core Legal Entity Classes (4)

  1. LegalEntityType (modules/classes/LegalEntityType.yaml)

    • Replaces top-level entity type classification
    • Two values: PERSON, ORGANIZATION
    • Based on fundamental legal distinction in civil law
    • Maps to: org:classification

  2. LegalForm (modules/classes/LegalForm.yaml)

    • ISO 20275 Entity Legal Forms (ELF) codes
    • 1,600+ legal forms across 150+ jurisdictions
    • Structured with: elf_code, country_code, local_name, abbreviation
    • Maps to: rov:orgType, gleif:hasLegalForm

  3. LegalName (modules/classes/LegalName.yaml)

    • TOOI-inspired structured name model
    • Fields: full_name, name_without_type, display_name, language
    • Distinguishes legal name from operational name
    • Maps to: rov:legalName, tooi:officieleNaamInclSoort

  4. RegistrationInfo (modules/classes/RegistrationInfo.yaml)

    • Container for 4 registration-related sub-classes
    • Manages official registration data with temporal validity

Registration Sub-Classes (4)

  1. RegistrationNumber (within RegistrationInfo.yaml)

    • Official registration identifiers (KvK, EIN, charity numbers)
    • Includes type, temporal_validity
    • Multivalued (organizations can have multiple registrations)
    • Maps to: rov:registration

  2. RegistrationAuthority (within RegistrationInfo.yaml)

    • Body that registers organizations
    • Fields: name, abbreviation, jurisdiction, website
    • Maps to: rov:hasRegisteredOrganization

  3. GovernanceStructure (within RegistrationInfo.yaml)

    • Internal organizational structure
    • Supports: hierarchical, matrix, flat, network
    • Maps to: org:hasUnit, org:OrganizationalUnit

  4. LegalStatus (within RegistrationInfo.yaml)

    • Current legal status (ACTIVE, DISSOLVED, SUSPENDED, MERGED)
    • Temporal validity tracking
    • Maps to: schema:status, gleif-base:hasEntityStatus

2. Updated Slot Definitions (7 slots)

Replaced Simple Slots with Class Ranges

Old Slot Old Type New Slot New Type Status
entity_type enum legal_entity_type LegalEntityType Replaced
legal_form string (pattern) legal_form LegalForm Updated
legal_name string legal_name LegalName Updated
registration_number string registration_numbers RegistrationNumber (multivalued) Replaced
registration_authority string registration_authority RegistrationAuthority Updated
legal_status LegalStatusEnum legal_status LegalStatus Updated
governance_structure string governance_structure GovernanceStructure Updated

  • modules/slots/registration_number.yaml.deprecated (singular)

    • modules/classes/RegistrationInfo

  2. Added 2 new slot imports:

    • modules/slots/legal_entity_type
    • modules/slots/registration_numbers

  3. Removed old slot import:

    • modules/slots/registration_number (singular)

  4. Updated statistics:

    • Total classes: 12 → 17 (added 5)
    • Total enums: 6 (unchanged)
    • Total slots: 59 (unchanged count, 7 updated definitions)

  • Jurisdiction-specific mappings
  • Usage examples
  • LinkML enum format

Critical Rules Established

Natural Persons (PERSON)

  • ❌ Cannot have legal_form (individuals are not "incorporated")
  • ⚠️ May not have registration_numbers (unless sole proprietor)
  • ✅ Identity established through biographical sources
  • ✅ Can be CustodianReconstruction if they had formal custodial role

Example: Private collector with documented provenance

Legal Persons (ORGANIZATION)

  • ✅ Must have legal_entity_type.code = "ORGANIZATION"
  • ✅ Must have legal_form (ISO 20275 code)
  • ✅ Must have registration_numbers (with temporal validity)
  • ✅ Must have registration_authority
  • ✅ Governance structure documented
  • ✅ Legal status tracked over time

Example: Stichting Rijksmuseum (Dutch foundation)

Informal Groups

  • ❌ NOT CustodianReconstruction if lacking legal status
  • ✅ Remain as CustodianObservation only
  • ✅ Can be upgraded to CustodianReconstruction if they become registered
  • ✅ Track change from informal → formal in provenance

Example: Neighborhood historical society (unregistered) → only observation

Validation Rules

Schema-Level Constraints

  1. Legal Entity Type + Legal Form Consistency

    # Valid: ORGANIZATION with legal form
legal_entity_type:
  code: "ORGANIZATION"
legal_form:
  elf_code: "8888"

# Invalid: PERSON with legal form
legal_entity_type:
  code: "PERSON"
legal_form:  # ❌ ERROR!
  elf_code: "8888"

  2. Registration Numbers Temporal Validity

    • Must have begin_of_the_begin date
    • end_of_the_end optional (null = still valid)
    • Temporal spans must not overlap for same registration type

  3. Legal Status Transitions

    • Only certain status changes are valid:
      • ACTIVE → DISSOLVED ✅
      • ACTIVE → SUSPENDED ✅
      • SUSPENDED → ACTIVE ✅
      • DISSOLVED → ACTIVE ❌ (cannot un-dissolve)

Data Quality Checks

  1. ISO 20275 Code Validation

    • elf_code must be 4 characters
    • Must match jurisdiction in country_code
    • Validate against ISO 20275 CSV: data/ontology/2023-09-28-elf-code-list-v1.5.csv

  2. Registration Authority Validation

    • Authority must be appropriate for jurisdiction
    • KvK → Netherlands only
    • Companies House → UK only
    • IRS → United States only

  3. Legal Name Structure Validation

    • full_name should include type (e.g., "Stichting X")
    • name_without_type should exclude type (e.g., "X")
    • display_name typically matches name_without_type or shorter

Testing Strategy

Unit Tests Needed

  1. LegalEntityType validation

    • Test rejection of invalid combinations

  2. Provenance linking

    • Test reconstruction derives from observation
    • Test legal entity data matches source

    • Test ROV compliance

Real Data Tests

  1. Dutch institutions (TOOI compliance)
