Description: This small TanBif checklist contains some errors:

1) lots of empty rows at the end - not deadly but can be removed
2) vernacular name is called "language"
3) scientific name is concatenated without a space, e.g. "Barbuskerstenii" instead of "Barbus kerstenii"

TanBIF has gone through a round of cleaning on their resources. Those don't have their owner responding had been removed. I am not sure what are those resources still causing problems, so it'll be nice to have a hint on where I can locate them and prompt TanBIF admin.

Any suggestion?

heres what we have registered for TanBIF: http://gbrds.gbif.org/browse/agent?uuid=76905CA0-1E21-11DE-9CA0-CD203B273F5D
From the 2 IPTs one seems old and wrong.

Some of the datasets you find listed there are indeed checklists. For example: http://gbrds.gbif.org/browse/agent?uuid=39131abf-97ea-41f2-9649-2e2e9c1a5d50

Yes the duplicate IPT is also one of the issue I am trying to clarify with them.

So I guess I'll need to validate each of them to "see" if there is still any obvious issues.

Some recent information about DwC-A validators make me wonder if also in your opinion these similar checks can be done automatically and in the future, possibly become one of the quality checking before resources are published. Have you thought about that? But this could be too early to mention.

Comment: yes, this is why we had setup a cron to do that and keep tags in the registry. but didnt work too nicely and we had to remove it for now - but we should surely set this up again!
