The publication status for records submitted in association with PMID:24509479 (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/bioproject/PRJEB2397) and PMID:25388376 (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/bioproject/229402) was not update upon acceptance of the papers. These came to my attention through our whole genome ratification of Streptococcus pneumoniae records project. There is an A/C polymorphism at 16S position 203 that is said to distinguish S. pneumo (always C) from other S. mitis group species (always A). It turns out there are some S. pneumo strains with A at that position, but most appear to be refseqs (direct submissions of reasonable quality), so we did not know whether the submitters to NCBI had actually done much in the way of phenotypic characterization to ensure they were sequencing S. pneumos and not S. pseudopneumos or S. mitis until I found these publications. We use publication status frequently to evaluate record trustworthiness.
S. pneumos with an 'A' from PMID:24509479 (GCF_001113365.1 appears likely misclassified from our analysis, but the others are S. pneumo):
