Another bullet point → Understanding where re-introduction of native species have been successful. If I reintroduce a native plant to an area where it has been extirpated, how will future scientists know that the now wild colony is (or may have been) the result of re-introduction?

I think this is similar to BugGuide’s approach, poor quality uploads are moved to a section called “frass” and then deleted after a certain amount of time.

If the “rubbish” was the only picture they managed to get in a place that they may never get to visit again, it probably isn’t rubbish to them.

I think you may have misunderstood me, I mean genuine pointless things like when people post pictures of literal rubbish, cuddly toys, pictures of their kids or mates with joke IDs, etc.

Yes, for such a highly-voted request and such a serious topic (whether or not one agrees with the request, this relates to a very core decision about how data is structured), it would be good to get a sense of

  1. Whether changes related to this topic are actively being worked on internally or have been declined, and
  2. If the topic has been declined or dropped, what alternative changes are being considered to address the fundamental concerns that motivated this request to become the top-voted request on the forums, by a current margin of 29 votes?
