    - Has a value from the Generic related_to hierarchy. In RDF,  this corresponds
      to rdf:predicate and in Neo4j this corresponds to the relationship type. The
      convention is for an edge label in snake_case form. For example, generic:related_to,

      Y, and republished by Z1, Z1, Z3. The retrieval path is Z--retrieved_from-->
      X --supporting_data_from Y, so the 'primary knowledge source' is 'un:X'. A 'supporting
      data source' is 'un:Y'. The 'aggregator knowledge source' are 'un:Z1', 'un:Z2',
      'un:Z3'.
