We expect to have 50k+ TaxonPages (akin to species pages) available this year as we transition some legacy data forward.

Wildly OT, but: The domain name is a bit funny, when I read &quot;eol&quot; my brain jumps to &quot;end of life&quot;. ;-)

wikidata [1] [2] has &quot;few&quot; species with links to many other databases like<p>* plazi.org list taxonomic treatment (~ species description) found in journals, papers using OCR when needed.<p>* gbif.org list specimens (and other things) using normalized datasets provided by various institutions (including Plazi).<p>one process among many others : some algorithms run by GBIF find potential matches between species and specimens, with some human curation, we can link between a specimen and the related papers.<p>[1] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.wikidata.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Q309337" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.wikidata.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Q309337</a> [2] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.wikidata.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Q106254624" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.wikidata.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Q106254624</a>
