Evidence-backed facts

  1. ChecklistBank APIs expose taxonomic datasets, names, usages, classifications, sectors, metrics, decisions, and dataset comparison and assembly metadata. informative
  2. Public discovery and reads are separate from authenticated dataset import, assembly, editorial, and publishing actions; access does not grant taxonomic authority. informative
  3. Clients must bind dataset or project key, name or usage identifier, rank, status, classification, fields, limit, offset, and release and preserve source-dataset lineage. informative
  4. Taxonomic concepts and synonymies can conflict, change, be provisional, or reflect different checklists and do not prove organism identity, accepted consensus, or nomenclatural act. informative
