N.B. reporting of the edit history is currently fairly unclear and misleading. Most edits made to specimens appear as a pair of 'add' and 'delete' entries, which may not be together in the list. There are also often 'minor' edits, which are made automatically (rather than due to user activity), for example to merge synonym names.

This plant is labelled Salix russelliana and it looks like it. It was listed as Salix x rubens, though. What does anyone else think?

It is really difficult to say! I don't think you can tell from this picture.
