[ensembl-dev] ID History Converter prints some wrong results

[Tycho Kirchner]

Hi,
apparently the ID History Converter

https://www.ensembl.org/Homo_sapiens/Tools/IDMapper

yields some wrong results, at least for ID's

ENSG00000239665
ENSG00000288733

While
https://www.ensembl.org/Multi/Search/Results?
yields zero results for both of them,

The resultfile for ENSG00000239665

ENSG00000239665.8, ENSG00000239665.8, 100, 0.927122

does not finish the entries with <retired>, implying they are still valid.

For ENSG00000288733 the IDMapper says "No stable IDs mapped to the given IDs", however, when querying for ENSG00000256374, I get

Old stable ID, New stable ID, Release, Mapping score

ENSG00000256374.2, ENSG00000288733.1, 105, 0.788845

but ENSG00000288733 was never retired. Something seems wrong here.

Thanks
