Key Generation Tool review with comments and new text

[ghost]

Consider name "Identification Tool" and replace page header text with New page text suggestion: "The Identification Tool is an interactive multi-access key which provides an identification "from taxon-character matrices, using an information entropy based method which treats character polymorphisms gracefully. It consists of the following steps: You are at: Create Input
Define Task [possibly select taxon level (eg. species (vs. family/genus]

Output: Identification

Need to be able to choose at which level to resolve identification (eg. species/subspecies)

(this may change what characters are considered useful/useless)

Other notes:

• change useful/useless to "Informative" "Uninformative" odd results - results not resolved to species - chose 1 character, says results = 6 (all taxa levels)
• OR chose 1 character and tool finishes provided identification of genus level (I was expecting species/subspecies)

  • duplicate character states presented (eg. Chose all taxa and all characters) results in duplicate choices in "shape of margin" (same option presented twice) - or even more times, with the hymenoptera example it looks more like the character state is displayed for every taxa, even when identical. _would be supercool to fix this by showing a count next to the character state ( surface_sculpture of ip) _ eg. instead of smooth glassy smooth roughened dorsally roughened glassy smooth

    You would do, smooth (3) glassy (2) roughened dorsally roughened

(also, "arrangement of drupe" options = "not" (parse error?)

• "identification result" in "taxa" section is very long, and cut-off, cannot see all the text

Turns out, that when multiple identical character states are presented (like in image) depending on WHICH particular option is chosen, resolves to a particular taxa.

*would be supercool to fix this by showing a count next to the character state ( surface_sculpture of ip)

Would you want the count of taxa overall or the count of taxa remaining that have the specific character state?
