Description: From a page like http://uat.gbif.org/taxonomy/term/322, is there any reason why the search links to the right can't be prefilled with ?q=Brazil or whatever so you can get straight to the right results?

Comment: Totally makes sense. We can and should link to the Brazil country page (/country/BR), search occurrences about brazil (/occurrence/search?country=BR) and list publishers with full text brazil in them (/publisher/search?q=BR)

Comment: [~dhobern@gbif.org] [~mdoering@gbif.org] I guess I could try to add code to check for the fact that you're looking at one particular dictionary (the countries one), but it's not straight forward; In this moment, that page is a GENERIC tag page; In other words, you can also search for the term IDs referring to other dictionaries e.g. "http://uat.gbif.org/taxonomy/term/546" which is for "Mentoring". What should the /country/546 return? Or /publisher/search?q=546 for that matter.

[~mdoering@gbif.org] I've got it working on my WS BUT countries in particular will only search for ISO names on the portal. So "Brazil" makes no sense.
Then we need to decide what to do about the other dictionaries, like in the example I gave: http://www.gbif.org/taxonomy/term/546 which is "Mentoring". Do we have species relating to "Mentoring"? How about datasets? I'm sorry to have to point out again: you can land on the the Drupal generic term page coming from many pages related to News/Comm but with very little or no relationship to the dataset(s) part. :-|

For publishers, push any free text/tag query term.
For occurrences, push only iso country code.
For species, never push.
For countries, push only iso country code.
In all cases all links stay active.

Comment: In discussing with Cip, some disagreement on the scope of this task. Cip now adding this functionality to home page search as well as already implemented on term page.

Comment: [~omeyn@gbif.org] On staging, input "Denmark" in the search box, check the links on the right side; Same for "Europe".

Even when search gives no results, the right hand side links should still contain the search term. And if it's a country it should be handled like any valid country (e.g. country/DK).
Occurrence search doesn't support free text search (q=) so for countries only it should use country= and ignore any other search term.
