since those 4 letter codes are typically for America continent, why not make them invalid for Europe? Would that not solve the problem?
I’m not sure exactly what you mean, but I don’t think that there’s a way to accomplish this.
I had a similar experience recently. I was uploading some old photographs from a trip to Chile 15 years ago. Many of them were classified correctly, but amongst them I had several insects and birds that were identified as Capsacum annuum. It took a post to the forum to realise that the tag Chile is also a form used for chilli.
I had already flagged it. On the 8th of April 2026.
REST is not an official code recognised by either the Institute for Bird Populations (IBP) or the Bird Banding Laboratory (BBL). Notice how Réunion isn’t in the American Ornithological Society (AOS) area?
Unfortunately, I think you can only prioritize organism names for places, not disable names for places.
