Since 2019, I have put a lot of effort into the Myriatrix Scratchpad ( https://myriatrix.myspecies.info/), dedicated to the Myriapoda and Onychophora of the world. I would like to continue maintaining the database and keeping it accessible online. Would it be possible for the Atlas of Living Australia / Living Atlases community to support me with converting Myriatrix into a Living Atlas? I will be happy to contribute back, e. g., with updated classifications (taxonomic backbones) for Myriapoda and Onychophora in the other Living Atlases. Kind regards, Carlos Carlos A.

I don’t think any LA instance outside of ALA is using Profiles currently. It is also worth noting its dependent on a number of other services being setup (occurrences stack, taxon services etc).

BR, Vicente From archilegt at gmail.com Thu Jun 15 18:30:05 2023 From: archilegt at gmail.com (Myriatrix Admin) Date: Thu, 15 Jun 2023 20:30:05 +0200 Subject: [ALA-Portal] Myriatrix Scratchpad conversion to Living Atlas In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: Hi Dave, Yes, it is of use, thanks! I do use the Taxon Description content type in Myriatrix. A very nice feature in the Scratchpads taxon descriptions is that if a bibliographic reference is already in the internal database, just citing its unique number with a so-called "bib tag" or "citekey" will automatically build that reference and others into a reference list at the end of each free text field, in a standard format. See example for *Scolopendra gigantea* Linnaeus, 1758, fields "General description" and "Distribution": https://myriatrix.myspecies.info/taxonomy/term/9017/descriptions Internally, there is no "References" section written. One just writes like this: See Kraepelin (1903: 233 )[bib]308[/bib], Attems (1930: 39-40)[bib]303[/bib], Shelley & Kiser (2000: 160-161)[bib]1913[/bib], Shelley (2006: 26)[bib]251[/bib], and Lewis (2016: 24, Table 1)[bib]1229[/bib]. ... and the software does the rest.
