I’m seeing it say “blue_lotus disagrees this is Genus Sycon Hairy Tube Sponges,” but I see that there is no ID of genus Sycon still there. Definitely looks like a bug to me too!

I deleted the ID of “Sycon”, but yeah, the “disagreement” is still there.

[image] blue_lotus: Before this I got a weird maverick label for an ID that was a member of higher taxa (there weren’t even enough IDs to qualify as a maverick, if I remember right) and the maverick label wouldn’t go away until I deleted my withdrawn ID. it might be a little clearer if you ca…

Maybe the taxon wasn’t set up properly for th…
