Summary: Rearranging some of the names of the NPT Startup site sections, such as the tabs on the ‘species’ page
Description: “I am not sure if question 9 refers to success that NPT has achieved until now or about its potential. I assumed the second because we do not have many installations so far. We were commenting that some labels can be a little bit confusing: species: This option shows information about every taxonomic rank. Maybe taxonomy would be a better label (of course, it sounds more technical...). Another thing is that "species" could be interpreted at first sight as "species records" or the kind of information that can be found in sites such as EOL. Specimens: "Occurrences" could be a better label because we suppose every kind of ‘Basis of Records’ are going to be included (e.g. observations).”

To use "Taxonomy" as the new menu title?
To use "Occurrence" as the new sub menu title on species page?

Hi Burke,
Taxonomy is I think too technical. The audience of the website might not understand what this means. Perhaps biodiversity data would be better?

If indeed the specimen tab will refer to more than only specimen data than I agree the term occurrences would suit better.

Cheers,
Olaf

Agree that 'taxonomy' may not be the best menu title. I am not either happy with the 'species' for now.
If no other comments I'll use 'biodiversity data'

I'll check whether the specimens tab only deals with specimens and change the title accordingly.
