Ah, thanks for the information. And this encyclopedia of life, isn't that
the project suitable?
Kind regards

Hoi,
A "species" database does not contain the same information you are likely
to find in an encyclopaedia. When you want to be comprehensive in a
database about species, you will include many revisions of genera, of
species and more. When you care about such things, have a look at IPNI.
Thanks,
Alex

I also think that it should not be seen as blasphemy when someone suggests
to reconsider a Wikimedia project. (Remember Asaf's session in Milan.)
Isn't Wikispecies not already redundant because in Wikipedia every species
is notable anyway?
What Wikipedia are you
Hello,
I also think that it should not be seen as blasphemy when someone suggests
to reconsider a Wikimedia project. (Remember Asaf's session in Milan.)
Isn't Wikispecies not already redundant because in Wikipedia every species
is notable anyway?
Kind regards

Hoi,
Taxonomy is not the thing that occupies me. It is however something I have
experience with.. Everyone who knows anything about the taxonomy of plants
can confirm that a taxon without publishing details is incomplete.
Thanks,
Gerard

Hoi,
This is great fun ...
However from the perspective of taxonomy this is not complete at all. What
is lacking are the names of the authors and the date of publication. Even
this can be insufficient because there are instances where a description
with the same name by the same people happened in
Or just get the entire taxonomy for a species quickly:

Disclaimer: I am writing this as a community member of the German
Wikipedia, where I have been active for many years in the
WikiProject:Biology. As an amateur I had to learn throughout the years,
that taxonomy is pretty tricky, much more than it seems at first sight.
Though it seems so easy to
I promise I'll get to looking at wikidata's search sometime! I sure don't know
when that time will be but I'll get to it!

What if this interface would exist? I believe it could be made really
quickly and easily.
It's not about interface only, for instance the search backend is
completely broken and useless for Wikidata, AFAICS.
From what I understand, the interface for Wikidata
