Collected Datasets without a mandatory linkage to study, population and collection event

This will create a dataset that won't be searchable, consider study ID as the primary key for Mica search.

So we should rather hide the information to the user?
This would mean we need to update the following templates, right?

• Make information about Study, Population and Data Collection Event optional (hide if not present) in public UI
  • URL /collected-datasets? only effects Card Display. (/libs/datasets.ftl line 135)
  • URL /dataset/... (/libs/dataset.ftl line 119, 195 and 178 already within conditional block)
  • URL/variable/.. (variables.ftl line 168 and 178 some parts are already optional)
  • URL /search/
    - [ ] Result column (update computation in results.js line 526 or change/add default /libs/document-set-scripts.ftl line 97 )
    - [ ] Filter menu (update the taxonomy via UI (c.f. #4422)

Just a little clarification: the dependency of a dataset on a study is vital and it cannot be changed without a more serious modification. The purpose of a dataset is to provide data of a study. In addition, in the UI, the study listing page and search page are affected if a dataset does not have a study ID.

You can always create a generic study and associate your dataset to it. You can also add a custom field to the Individual Study schema (Administration / Individual Study Configuration) and use it to filter out the generic study in the pages you do not wish it to be displayed.
