Curation of VLO organization facet

[haaf@bbaw.de]

The MD Curation Taskforce should attend to the curation of the organization facet. Goals:

1. Merge similar facet values which refer to the same organization
2. Come up with a canonical list of organizations to map the values to
3. Perform the mapping

Just to note: There were earlier attempts to curation of organisation facet.
Some notes and (outdated) pointers in Taskforces/Curation/ValueNormalization#Organisationnames .

A manual curation work has been done on the organisation list by CLARIN-NL (Menzo, Hennie) and uploaded to CLAVAS.
Menzo is the vocabulary still in CLAVAS? There seems to be no information or link on the ​CLAVAS info page.

I believe we discussed this briefly in the VLO meeting in Nijmegen, 2018-01

Lately also discussed at the F2F meeting of 2018-06

An organisation vocabulary was created by the Digital Curation Service for the old CLAVAS (created for CLARIN-NL by Hennie). It was based on a dump of the VLO organisation facet. But it was never used and by now too outdated to be taken along to the new CLAVAS. I started a new (manual) effort, but it isn't finished and is likely to be outdated as well by now.

In line with the procedure for value normalisation in the Curation taskforce, I created an empty normalisation map for the organisation facet:

An empty normalisation map has been created:

​​https://github.com/acdh-oeaw/VLO-mapping/blob/master/value-maps/organisation.csv

this has 991 values.

Basically the merging work done by Alex should result into prefilling this empty normalisation map with proposed standardized values, which would then need to be checked by the curation team.
