With regards to the citation: For all checklists, it now says "Accessed at http://www.marinespecies.org on 2021-03-10", after the author, year, title.

Should this not be?: "In: Roskov Y., Ower G., Orrell T., Nicolson D., Bailly N., Kirk P. M., Bourgoin T., DeWalt R. E., Decock W., van Nieukerken E. J., Penev L. (eds.). Species 2000 & ITIS Catalogue of Life, 2020-12-01. Digital resource at www.catalogueoflife.org. Species 2000: Naturalis, Leiden, the Netherlands. ISSN 2405-8858."

Thank you, @chantalhuijbers !

Citation should be generated automatically from GSD + CoL metadata during release.

Honestly, I do not understand the aim of Citation field in GSD metadata.

[yroskov]

CHECKS THROUGH ALL CHECKLISTS:

Broken sectors: WoRMS Corallimorpharia & WoRMS Brachyura (not established). FIXED.

Decisions were not affected by metadata update.
