Create list of changed activity ids

[notshi]

Similar to #218, this is an ongoing issue where we bookmark an activity using its activity identifier and the next day, it has disappeared.

Often, these are still in the data but the publishers have just changed their id.

This makes it hard for us to keep track of things, fix issues, provide context, see if problems have been fixed, etc.

Could this also be done by listing previous activity ids within an activity? @amy-silcock

@JoshStanleyDevInit @notshi Yes, I need to have a look and see if we store activity id and fetch all changed ids from its revision history.

I keep you updated on this. Thanks

@jodiegardiner Similar to #324, could we have this list too?

That’s right, so other-identifier[@type="A3"]/@ref is where any previous identifier(s) should live. I guess d-portal could parse that data into redirects?

Thanks, @andylolz and technically, yes.

However, the reality is not as a useful.
Here is a first 1000 results of that query - all of the previous activity identifiers referenced here are previous org identifiers.

Here's the query if you want to tweak it.

It does get better if you ignore that particular org id but then there will be other publishers so you'll then need a list of publishers who publisher their previous org id as other-identifier[@type="A3"]/@ref so that you can ignore those.

Hi @notshi, our initial request from Derilinx was to prioritize 324 which will only address publisher ID and org ID changes. This ticket will be picked up in the future and prioritized. Thanks!
