Notes | This tests for records that have no taxonomic (NAME) information. If there is any value for any of the Information Elements, this may be useful information. See example. |
Comment by Lee Belbin (@Tasilee) migrated from spreadsheet: This needs discussion. For example, would kingdom, phylum, class or order only be useful?
Added new Darwin Core taxon terms to Information Elements. Are there any unnecessary ones?
Following the definitions of the higher taxonomy terms being placements for the taxon, not the taxon, and as expresse in #57 and #70, the information elements in this test should exclude the higher taxonomy terms, and should reflect just the list as used in #57 and #70: dwc:taxonID, dwc:scientificName, dwc:genericName, dwc:specificEpithet, dwc:infraspecificEpithet, dwc:scientificNameAuthorship and dwc:cultivarEpithet. Perhaps also including dwc:taxonConceptID, and dwc:scientificNameID. This shorter list are the terms needed to "determine the taxon of the entity exists", others are placements for the taxon or relationships to other taxa.
Discussed in a call this summer, position is analogous to a date with just a day, there isn't sufficient information to know which day is being talked about, but there is some information that constrains the date. Thus even just a value in kingdom (a classification term) is adequate to provide some constraints on the taxon. Thus retain the current list of information elements, not try to reduced.
Will need to include the new terms dwc:superfamily, dwc:tribe, dwc:subtribe https://github.com/tdwg/dwc/issues/65 https://github.com/tdwg/dwc/issues/45 https://github.com/tdwg/dwc/issues/46
Added the terms dwc:superfamily, dwc:tribe, dwc:subtribe to the Information elements.
Updated the date last updated to 2022-07-04 as the list of information elements has changed.
Amended Specification Last Updated from "2022-07-04" to "2023-07-04" :)
Splitting bdqffdq:Information Elements into "Information Elements ActedUpon" and "Information Elements Consulted".
Also changed "Field" to "TestField", "Output Type" to "TestType" and updated "Specification Last Updated"
