Comment[edit]

  • Example 1 is better served by this item (.../taxon/... proposal)
  • Example 2 is better served by Example 3
  • Example 4 is the only entry for Panthera tigris corbetti in this database
  • Example 5 is marginally fuller than Example 6 (if you enter Panthera tigris amoyensis here, the fact there are two entries appears to be an artefact of there being two different source contributors (来源).

Perhaps there should be a recommendation to use this identifier where there is no China Animal Scientific Database taxon ID or, as in Example 3, information not found there, and to use only 1 and ideally the best match (Example 3, not Example 2)

Motivation[edit]

A Chinese (Q7850) Template:Taxonbar (Q22741012) item for Chinese Wikipedia (Q30239). Thank you, Maculosae tegmine lyncis (talk) 00:50, 29 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
