How to contribute an archetype

Hi,

I have translated the Glasgow Coma Scale archetype to spanish, how can I send it to the CKM?

Cheers,

Hi Pablo,

If you email the translation to me, I can upload it immediately.
Archetype upload requires editorial access rights.

Hi Heather,

It was attached to my previous email.

Thank you.

Hi Pablo,

Thanks for your work.
Unfortunately there are a couple of issues. One is that you have translated an archetype that is labelled as ‘draft’, and that is not the same as the current Glasgow Coma Scale archetype in CKM - it is nearly the same, but there are some subtle differences in description in the Motor responses section.

Could you please download the archetype from CKM and update that one with the translation.

I have included my recent email to the list for further clarification, below, and to give potential translators some perspective re the approach on CKM. You are very welcome to translate any archetype on CKM, but please be very aware that any archetype that is still draft could change significantly through the review process, and the translation will have to be updated after content publication - just pointing it out to try to avoid duplication of work, not to discourage.

Again, many thanks

Heather

Hi Marc (and any other volunteer translators),

To be honest, I’m not sure that we have any archetypes translated to French, so we really welcome your involvement.

The easiest way for you to translate at present is via the Ocean Archetype Editor - instructions for translation in the Editor can be found on the CKM wiki at http://bit.ly/G2Ivi. (We have been working to enable translation (and translation review) in CKM itself but full functionality is still a little way off.)

I would suggest that the best use of your time and skills would be gained from translating the published archetypes first as the content for these archetypes can be regarded as stable. Don’t bother translating the archetypes currently in team review as these are clearly in flux, and will have to be redone in the relatively near future. Next priorities would be the core content archetypes eg those for the emergency summary http://bit.ly/BV5uv, but remember that any of these that are still in draft status will be changing over the next few months as they undergo review, so I’d wait a little while for those if I were you.

In any case, if you plan to translate an archetype, I’d suggest you just drop me an email and let me know, so we can coordinate and make sure there is not duplication. Once you have translated an archetype it needs to be uploaded to CKM by an Editor - so currently that role resides with Ian McNicoll, Sebastian Garde or myself. So send it as an email attachment and we will ensure that it gets uploaded.

Once we finish the translation functionality in CKM, we will be able to enable reviews of each translation to ensure that there is consensus about the translation as well - would you be interested in doing this at some stage in the future?

Let me know if you have any questions and thanks again for your generous offer

Regards

Heather

Hi Heather,

I think that I have the wrong archetype repository, I’ve downloaded all my archetypes from> http://www.openehr.org/svn/knowledge/archetypes/dev/

How can I download all the archetypes from the current CKM? it has a SVN?

Having two different repositories online is a bit confusing, I think the openEHR people can kill http://www.openehr.org/svn/knowledge/archetypes/dev/ and make only the current CKM the only valid openEHR archetype repository.

Thanks a lot!

Hi Pablo,

The CKM repository is now the official openEHR repository. You can download all the current CKM archetypes via Main menu->Archetypes->Export Archetypes. You need to be registered and logged-in to see this option.

You make a fair point about possibly de-commissioning the subversion repository.

Hi Pablo,

You can download all (or a selection of) archetypes from CKM as a zip from the Archetypes Menu.

The svn repository is definitely outdated.

We are also looking into adding support to CKM to automatically push changes of archetypes to a SVN repository, so that people have a choice and have the full history of changes available in standard svn (other issues have a higher priority though at the moment).

Sebastian – is it possible to translate on CKM as yet?

Cheers, Sam
