forget it, did not know i was breaking a forum rule or its spirit
How long ago did you delete the IDs? Sometimes it takes a few hours for these various statistics to update.
About 2 weeks…
edit: also note that the ‘identifications’ count on my User profile page is perfectly correct, and updates almost instantly; only stats/counts/pages under the ‘www.inaturalist.org/identifications/’ URLs are wrong.
What is your username on iNat? It should match the name you use here but there doesn’t seem to be an account with that name.
How is that relevant to the bug? Do I break a rule by choosing not to disclose my iNat handle to members of this forum? (It’s annoying enough already to be submitted to scrutiny by its sleuths and militias policing other non-technical threads.). If so, please close this thread. Thanks in advance.
Yes, knowing the account is often necessary to resolve bugs, especially those related to personal observation and identification statistics.
OK, thread closed then. Sorry for the noise.
If you are concerned that your posts here may negatively influence how people see you on iNat or that revealing your iNat user name may influence people’s opinions of you here, perhaps you should reconsider your behavior.
Sock puppet accounts are not allowed either in the forums or on iNat. Even if you are not creating multiple accounts, it seems to me that deliberately concealing one’s user name violates the spirit of this rule.
