Dictionaries for use with ami as well as with canary. Provided as xml files and now also JSON.

To contribute simply fork and make a pull request with a new dictionary. Ideally include some external identifier (particularly Wikidata) for each term if possible. For inspiration see this: blog post. By Chris Kittel about making a dictionary for species from Wikidata.

Either XML or JSON is fine.

Looks something like:

tionary title="baz">
ry term="foo" name="bar" id="1234" wikidataId="Q1234" />
ctionary>

id and wikidataId are not required

A rough description of the contents is as follows

• cochrane - short list of terms that may be of interest to or about Cochrane
• disease - list of diseases, origin currently unknown perhaps wikidata
• epidemic - very short list relating to epidemics
• funders - list of funders provided by CrossRef
• hgnc - list of human genes perhaps from NIH?
• inn - list of generic drug names from ChEBI
• jax - list of mouse genes ~ synbio - list of synthetic biology terms, handwritten
• taxdumpGenus - list of taxonomic genus, source unknown
• tropicalVirus - list of tropical viruses, handwritten
