Re: PROV-ISSUE-395: Rename hadOriginalSource to "originatedFrom"? [prov-dm]

Luc,

Regarding the name,
Yes, I think we agreed on hadPrimarySource.



Though, looking at the definition at http://dvcs.w3.org/hg/prov/raw-file/default/model/prov-dm.html#term-primary-source :

   A primary source refers to the source material that is closest to the person, information, period, or idea being studied.
1) A primary source relation is a particular case of derivation that aims to give credit to the source that originated some information. It is recognized that it may be hard to determine which entity constitutes a primary source. This definition is inspired by original-source as defined in http://googlenewsblog.blogspot.com/2010/11/credit-where-credit-is-due.html.

does not lead me think of what is described at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primary_source

2) A primary source (also called original source or evidence) is an artifact, a document, a recording, or other source of information that was created at the time under study.



#1 still gives me this loose bloggy feel, and not the curation feel that I think is important for Primary Sources.

While #2 claims "it's hard to determine", I disagree, #1 is clear that it must have been "created at the time under study".

I suggesting making #2 the definition, and attenuating the emphasis on http://googlenewsblog.blogspot.com/2010/11/credit-where-credit-is-due.html (by perhaps stating that "in the blogosphere, Primary source is a concern as discussed by googlenewsblog)
