2026-06-09T05:23:46.840780+00:00 correct_stale_ontology_labels.py CORRECTED ontology_label 'Sulphur' -> 'polysulfur': synced to canonical CHEBI label (preferred_term 'Sulphur' unchanged).
2026-07-20T00:00:00+00:00 migrate_media_roles_to_facets ANNOTATED Migrated legacy media_roles to role facets (#128): MINERAL -> nutritional_roles.SULFUR_SOURCE
2026-08-13T00:00:00+00:00 fix_wrong_compound_cas CORRECTED_WRONG_COMPOUND_CAS cas_rn '12597-03-4' -> '7704-34-9' (#320). The recorded value denotes trisulfur specifically, not polysulfur — a different compound, not a different form of this one. Replaced with ChEBI's hasDbXref on CHEBI:17909, the term this record is already mapped to, so the new value comes from the existing mapping rather than a fresh lookup.
2026-08-27T03:16:39.519931+00:00 refresh_occurrence_statistics CORRECTED occurrence_statistics 5/5 -> 7/7 (media_count/total_occurrences), derived from distinct CultureMech recipe ids in the #337 occurrence table. The prior values came from the importer retired in #453, whose media_count counted a list truncated to 50 examples (#449).

2026-09-11T13:41:33.694587+00:00 fix_sulfur_family MERGED_INTO REJECTED Merged into CHEBI:33403 'Sulfur'; occurrences transferred to the surviving elemental sulfur record and SSSOM rows dropped. The old record CHEBI:17909 split a spelling or supplied powder form from the same weighable sulfur substance (#368).
