Summary: ":) ia" is not a recognized kingdom
Description: I've been wondering which kingdom http://uat.gbif.org/species/124484006 refers to. It appears to be a root node of some sort in EOL, maybe? Searching for that name on EOL finds no records. Looking up http://uat.gbif.org/species/124484006/verbatim gives me a 500 error.
Priority: Minor

The EOL data is some month old and it might have been removed in the meantime.
Scanning the underlying dwc archive for that name yields 2 entries in EOL at that time:
{noformat}
31473960 Tornoceratinae Arthaber 1911
31475139 :)ia kingdom
31475140 :) order
31476758 Aeschna caerulea

Comment: The verbatim 500 error is fixed and you should get a 404 instead now on http://portaldev.gbif.org

Yes, it's there cause EOL published it. We will not modify or clean the data they have published.
Maybe someone should get in touch with EOL to ask them to republish an updated version?

Comment: EOL has been contacted.

Yeah. Seems to still be the old copy then. Unless they publish an updated version we should keep the dataset empty as it is now.
