The URL and API class for a participant is called "Node", while we call them Participants in the portal text everywhere as far as I can see. Should we change the URLs from /node/xyz to /participant/xyz ?

Comment: I do not see a reason to change this - in fact 'node' is a safer, more generic term to suggest an endorsing entity, since it includes former Participants, observers and probably in future GBIF Affiliates that will not technically be Participants according to our governance but will be able to endorse data publishers.
