Ensure we can identify and merge duplicate objects

[u8sand]

• Potentially add a way for users to communicate with the authors of the duplicates to agree to resolve them and in what way. -> Moved to Enable users to request modifications #60
• At least ensure we can do it administratively and allow users to report duplication

I've developed some scripts for doing this both automatically and with minor manual intervention. In general there seem to be a lot of discrepancies between even the old db and fairshakejam.

A thing that often seems to occur is different versions of the same tool existing at the same url--we need to think about how we want to manage this within FAIRshake. While tools like a guid may assist us in determining previous versions of a resource, if we want to keep assessments with another version of a resource we need to save that version information.

I suggest assigning GUIDs to assessments and digital objects the moment an assessment was submitted... and somehow link these two and date stamp them...

[u8sand]

@AviMaayan I'm having a hard time finding resources for how I am supposed to be creating GUIDs.

I ultimately found these:

• https://ors.datacite.org/docs
• http://smart-api.info/ui/bf9abe9c17c9c78c432832382ef9e16a

Both have doi and ark but judging by the metadata requested, I'm unsure assessments or digital objects fit.

Assessments are already timestamped, and I can add version control throughout the entire database (for tracking all modifications), perhaps this is enough--I don't think we need attempt to assess older-than-today versions of a given digital object.

Finally, we should be resolving existing GUIDs, if we just create new ones we'll just be creating more duplicates.

[AviMaayan]

Sounds good. We want to be able to follow the change in FAIRness overtime... If we issue GUIDs to the digital objects in FAIRshake, this may cause more confusion...
