Description of problem (please provide a set of steps we can use to replicate the issue, and make as many as you need.):
I usually identify “unknowns” in south east asia using the URL
This morning I was looking through my current notifications and found a strange situation with the above mentioned observation:
According to the currently shown version, the observer provided an identification at the rank of species. Nonetheless, the observation showed up in my selection for identifications, i.e. without any id at all (or “Life”).
I saw that it is about a snake, which I did not recognize in more detail, and provided my id at the rank of order (“Serpentes”), and it was shown as the first id for this observation.
There are 4 and half hours between the observer’s identification and my identification.
This morning, my id shows up as a disagreement with the original id.
There are (at least) two issues:
- the observation was shown without any existing id (may be related to other performance issue discussed currently)
- my identification which agreed at a coarser level was then treated as a disagreement
