I don’t know who ultimately should make this decision–staff or some kind of consensus among curators. Any curator can edit the wiki, but it reads more like an official document and I wouldn’t be comfortable editing it to change the criteria. Between this and the other species complex discussion linked to above, now is probably a good time to ask the staff if they’d like to make a decision. Regardless, it definitely needs to be reworded at the very least.
