2.3. Marine datasets and the Ocean Biodiversity Information System (OBIS) - add citation or link to WoRMS #181

Closed CecSve closed 1 year ago

In the following section: https://docs.gbif-uat.org/publishing-dna-derived-data/1.3/en/#marine-datasets-and-the-ocean-biodiversity-information-system-obis

Can a reference or a hyperlink be added when WoRMS is mentioned?

To ensure consistent taxonomic nomenclature OBIS uses the World Register of Marine Species (WoRMS) as the only taxonomic backbone. This is the case also for occurrences derived from genetic data; a scientific name linked to a scientific name ID from the WoRMS database is required information for publishing.
