In the case of a multiple-species observation, it is recommended to ID at the lowest possible compatible taxonomical rank. With disagreement with all lower ranks, otherwise it would be pointless. If we have plants and animals in different pictures, then it would make sense to ID at the “State of ma…

Just noting this has been fixed.

Disagreeing with lower ranks is available at the level of ‘Life’. When prompted with this window: [image] You need to pick the orange option to explicitly disagree. You selected the green option on both observations, and thus the community taxon did not change to life. I’ve added disagreeing Life …

I think in Identify mode, if you select state of matter life it doesn’t let you choose whether you explicitly disagree or just know it is life. It just assumes the green option. But if you open up the observation page and ID it as state of matter life from there it lets you choose. At least, this is…

You’re spot on, this is still the problem. Adding ‘Life’ via Identify does not allow explicit disagreement

Could you confirm you made the ID via the identify page? You’re not going crazy!

as far as i can tell, the option to disagree only pops up if you use Add ID and type it in and does not come up if you make a choice under the suggestions tab from the Identify page. i don’t know if that is going in here but fyi.

Yes, using the Identify page, while reviewing observations identified at the Family Fabaceae level.

I can reproduce the issue like this: Identify page. Click on the button “Add ID”. Type in “life” in the control text box. Select “State of matter Life” as suggested. Click on the button “Save”. So, with the button “Add ID” also, we can miss the option to disagree.
