Are new users required to understand the differences between wild and cultivated when creating an account?

Yes! Getting hold of the teacher could solve much of this. Often somebody here could figure out the school involved. I wonder if somebody here should attempt to get to the teacher, either through the school or by flat-out asking the students. If so, who should do this? (I doubt iNaturalist wants just everybody pestering teachers, perhaps impolitely, but staff certainly doesn’t have enough time.)
