<div><br></div><div>I think it is cleaner to have the overlapping concepts separated into a different namespace.</div><div><br></div><div>This implies that the set of alternativeconcepts don't overlap with each other.</div>
<div><br></div><div>So what I am proposing allows for alternative concepts.</div><div><br></div><div>It does not appear that The Plant List has alternative concepts, each species has a current name and the set represents their form of a set of non overlapping concepts.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Why isn't this controversial?</div><div><br></div><div>Note also that things like The Plant List don't do much to improve the lot of those who document and describe species. You cite the authors of The Plant List.</div>
<div><br></div><div>This is in contrast to TaxonConcept where you site the species editors and the original author is linked via their DBpedia description. (In many cases these will need to be added to Wikipedia, about 6,000 already)</div>
