These two aren’t updating after I added my ID. Tried ticking/unticking DQA, refreshing, deleting + readding IDs.

This is obviously the normal behaviour for most observations, but I’d have thought that the ID would change when it’s my own observation?

It doesn’t matter if it’s your own observation, only whether there is another ID on the observation already when the subspecies is added. If you had put the subspecies as the initial ID, then it would have immediately been at subspecies.
