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.

I assumed that Philip S. King was Philip Scarborough King on no good basis; would you rather I hadnt?

Thanks for asking about this. I think in this your assumption is correct and is worth making. Where there's more room for ambiguity probably record the name as written, as duplicate versions of collector names can easily be merged automatically later if necessary.

regards,

Tom
