The metadata fields Replaces and isReplacedBy can indicate a relationship between two records A and B where:
A= old data, deprecated but still available
B= new data, to be used instead of A
For the purposes of GeoBlacklight, users only need to enter a value (ID of corresponding record) in the field Replaces in record B. This is because GeoBlacklight is set up to create widgets that display a two-way relationship that has only been declared on one record. (see the Data Relations documentation for more details)
For the purposes of OpenGeoMetadata, users should enter a value (ID of corresponding record) in both records. This is to ensure that the relationship is declared in the metadata regardless of how a discovery application functions.
Furthermore, we should note that is would be a Best Practice to also include a warning in the displayNote field to alert users to deprecated datasets.
