Hi all, Just wondering is it possible to see where someone did disagree with an annotation I added (for example life stage)? This to learn and/or correct errors. Any tips or advice welcome.

you have to get the details of each observation that has annotations via the API and parse through the annotation “votes” to see if there are disagreements. right now, it doesn’t look like any of your observations with life stage annotations have any disagreeing votes.

Because annotations can be disagreed with but not corrected by anyone except the observer/annotator and they don’t generate notifications, I always comment/tag the annotator if I come across wrong annotations.

Ah, I didn’t know that. That sounds like a good practice, thanks.

Would you care to explain what “the API” is in this context?

API = application programming interface. information about iNat’s API can be found at https://api.inaturalist.org . i used one of my Jupyter notebooks running Python to get information from the API and come to the conclusions in my previous post, but you can also write your own code / scripts to ge…

Thanks for checking pisum. It’s a pity this is not default available in inaturalist. Are you able to share your code in some way?

[image] rudolphous: It’s a pity this is not default available in inaturalist. there’s not a straightforward way to look for the particular information you want because it’s a complicated request, and there are a lot of potential variations in how exactly any particular persion might want to f…
