While looking at this valueset http://build.fhir.org/valueset-example-yesnodontknow.html, I notice that it has no URL, and no ID. Is this an official FHIR valueset? If yes, please add URL/ID/descriptions as other FHIR value set. If no, please remove that from this page http://build.fhir.org/terminologies-valuesets.html

I don't know why it renders differently. there's no obvious reason. @Yunwei Wang can you make a task please

I notice that it has an invalid name (spaces, punctuation) and no title - that might be tripping up tools

A FHIR value set yesnodontknow lists values Y and N from system
http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/v2-0136
at http://hl7.org/fhir/R4/valueset-example-yesnodontknow.html
UTG lists instead an expandedYes-NoIndicator (including several values identical to null flavors) at
http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/v2-0532
at https://build.fhir.org/ig/HL7/UTG/CodeSystem-v2-0532.html
Each system is congruent to its V2 source table; neither repository lists both.
If I want to convert Y or N from a legacy system to the standard, which system do I assign?
Lloyd McKenzie (Sep 03 2021 at 19:58):
V2 gives multiple ways to say the same thing. I don't know we can close that particular barn door at this point. The best we could reasonably do is define a ConceptMap between the two value sets. If the only values you want are 'Y' and 'N', you're free to use either, but I'd lean towards the smaller of the two.
