The TCS 2 Task Group will turn TCS into a form in which it can be maintained. The new version of TCS will be a vocabulary standard like Darwin Core and Audiovisual Core and will complement these other existing TDWG standards.

remove mention of 'uninomial' from notes #209

All parsed name properties come from Darwin Core, which does not have the 'uninomial' property. The usage notes come from the TDWG Taxon Name LSID Ontology which does. We can add a uninomial property if requested by the community, but it would be better in Darwin Core and it has never been requested there, so there is probably no use for it.

Puzzled by this one @nielsklazenga. Uninomial is a TCS property. It is also used in NSL exports, ABCD and CoLDP etc.

nielsklazenga commented 2 years ago

Then we need to add it in TCS 2. I think though that, since we borrow all the parsed name properties from Darwin Core, the better approach, if people want to have it, would be to add it to Darwin Core. We can do that as the TCS MG (well, we can propose it (or we can add the TAG what to do about it)).

This pull request is only about the text of the comments under specificEpithet and infraspecificEpithet, not about whether or not we should have the uninomial property. At the moment the reference to a uninomial property is just wrong.

Alternatively, I can just add the uninomial property and we work out later how exactly we deal with that. I can add that to this PR.

But already there as https://github.com/tdwg/tcs2/issues/18, because "uninomial" is in TCS101.

nielsklazenga commented 2 years ago

That is just the issue. It has a note from Feb. 19 that it is better off in Darwin Core. But I will add it to the YAML. Will need to create a new PR for that, as the branch is not there anymore.

I think I see your point.
