Features

A key improvement to Scratchpads 2.0 will be to make them much simpler and easier to use. This will mean that a new Scratchpad will initially have many features turned off. It will be possible for a maintainer to enable various features on an administration page. This will make use of Drupal's Features module.

Central species control center
Have a central place to see and work with data linked to a taxon.
 * For example have an extra icon on taxon pages and in the taxonomy editor that links to this central place.
 * When you are on the central place you will see statistics for the taxon, e.g. the number of nodes of the various content types linked to this taxon, also the number of primary/secondary types linked to the taxon (and the number of images linked to the type specimens...).
 * There should be options to add (edit/delete?) content for the taxon, maybe via a link to the matrix editor with the respective selection preset.
 * There should also be a link to view the data, probably best as tables/image galleries.

Taxonomy import workflow
Workflow for adding and importing a new taxonomy:
 * Click on 'Taxonomy' in the content menu
 * Click on 'Add new vocabulary'
 * Show only the 'Identification' section (vocabulary name, description, help text)
 * Click 'Next' button
 * Option to select ITIS Name content type (with help text) and link to 'Other settings'
 * Buttons with option to stop here or to go to import page.

Taxonomy manual entry workflow
Workflow for adding a taxonomy directly from primary/secondary literature (e.g. original descriptions & catalogues)
 * Context sensitive prompts that help you build the taxonomy (e.g. after entering a new genus you get prompted to enter the type species or after entering a species you get prompted to enter type specimen data)

Taxonomy editor - type specimens

 * In the taxonomic editor automatically show (data from) specimens that are linked to the the respective taxon and that are marked as types.
 * Have a workflow from the taxonomic editor to add type specimens for the respective taxon.

Multiple image upload workflow

 * Click on the multiple image upload icon in the Content menu.
 * Option to add your files and additional fields: either all the normal add image fields ('Imaging technique', 'Image gallery', 'Select a licence', etc.) as well as the 'Advanced options tabs 'Access', 'Authoring information' and 'Publishing options' or alternatively only 'Groups', 'Public', 'Published', and 'Select a licence'.
 * Upload
 * Link to matrix editor

Location-specimen workflow
After adding a new location give the option to either add a new specimen that is linked to this location or add a new location.

Biblio import workflow
When importing a bibliography have the option to adjust the autotagging settings.
