Before more specifically responding to this topic (which I did vote for although I suspect it will never come to pass), I need help understanding the value iNat staff places on Annotations. Perhaps @tiwane or @loarie can help.
In the post https://forum.inaturalist.org/t/batch-adding-annotations/3450, @tiwane specifically states: “Correct, it [annotation] has to be done one at a time. Which I think is good, IDs and annotations should should be important enough that you should take some time to do them.”
And yet @tiwane in this thread “hearted” a dismissive comment by kiwifergus:
So does the entity iNaturalist truly believe Annotations are as important as IDing a taxon, or are they an afterthought “feature” that are useful only if volunteers want to spend hours updating 420,000 lep obs from just the US and Canada?
Thanks if you can assist in delineating iNat’s position on Annotations in general.
