1) When I click on a Dataset Type Icon, I am adding that as a facet filter to what I have filtered,
2) When I click on the sector name (e.g. "Natural Resources") I am applying a global search - wiping out what I have already added as filters,
3) When I click the resource type icons (w.g. WMS, CSV) - I am taken to the record.
To resolve this confusion and improve consistency - suggestion is to remove these hyperlinks and just ensure that hovertext is in place.

As a user I find the hyperlinks presented for each dataset in the datasets list / search pages ( http://catalogue.data.gov.bc.ca/dataset and http://catalogue.data.gov.bc.ca/organization/[orgname]) inconsistent and confusing.
