How to add common names with External Name Providers and Wikidata?

[whaichi]

You can add common names on the taxon page under the ‘Taxonomy’ header:

From the following page you can enter the desired common name and associate it with a language on iNaturalist:

After that you can also choose to have it associated with a particular locality in the event that there are multiple common names in the same language and only some are used in a geographic area. (Note that I believe this is only possible if you are entering the common name yourself, otherwise you can contact a curator to have them make the change for you.)

Just to add to this, perhaps @whaichi can just edit this into his post, and I will remove mine.

-If a name already exists, only curators may edit or delete it.

• there can be multiple common names for a single language to deal for instance with regional spelling or other issues - ie both Gray Catbird and Grey Catbird can be entered as English names for that species
• the lexicon should be entered in English - ie enter Danish not Dansk.
