'sample linkage' may not always be a GUID

[mslarae13]

Current description of slot:sample link

"A unique identifier to assign parent-child, subsample, or sibling samples. This is relevant when a sample or other material was used to generate the new sample."

Because we no longer required a source material identifier or sample GUID (GUID is assigned by NMDC) the user may not have a GUID to provide sample links. We should update the description to say "The sample name of samples to be linked to this sample. This should match a sample name provided to NMDC & should identify the sample relationship that is being provided. This is relevant when a sample or other material was used to generate the new sample."

Should update examples.
core: soil core 1
parent: sample A
pooling: sample 1, sample 2, sample 3

Double checking - is this edit happening in the submission schema or the NMDC schema?

Please make some valid and invalid examples files for this, no matter which schema you put it in.

Do you need any help putting slots into the submission-schema in a way that bypasses the nmdc-schema?

nmdc-schema

Yes, Bea, do you know how to make example files?

nmdc-schema

Thanks! Yes I will add example files.
