that is exclusive or loosely controlled that is inclusive. Maybe it’s time now to consider something additional in the middle. We know a lot more about how the Darwin Core standard is being used, or at least have plenty of examples. With the addition of
use cases into the standards for terms, progress could be made on use-case-based standard vocabulary that could reduce the “garbage in/garbage out” problem that comes from being totally inclusive.

<p class="MsoNormal">I would say that the primary factor driving the philosophy for loose controlled vocabulary recommendations is a desire to promote the stability of Darwin Core term definitions, because changes can be disruptive. Section 1.4 on the Simple
Darwin Core page (<a href="http://rs.tdwg.org/dwc/terms/simple/index.htm" target="_blank">http://rs.tdwg.org/dwc/terms/simple/index.htm</a>) gives further practical arguments for this stance. I have copied the relevant text here for convenience:<u></u><u></u></p>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">"<span style="font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif";color:black">There is a difference between having data in a field and requiring that field to have a value from among a legal set of values. The Darwin Core is simple in that it has minimal
restrictions on the contents of fields. The term comments give recommendations about the use of controlled vocabularies and how to structure content wherever appropriate. Data contributors are encouraged to follow these recommendations as well as possible.
You might argue that having no restrictions will promote "dirty" data (data of low quality or dubious value). Consider the simple axiom "It's not what you have, but what you do with it that matters." If data restrictions were in place at the fundamental level,
then a record having any non-compliant data in any of its fields could not be shared via the standard. Not only would there be a dearth of shared data in that case (or an unused standard), but also there would be no way to use the standard to build shared
data cleaning tools to actually improve the situation, nor to use data services to look up alternative representations (language translations, for example) to serve a broader audience. The rest is up to how the records will be used - in other words, it is
up to applications to enforce further restrictions if appropriate, and it is up to the stakeholders of those applications to decide what the restrictions will be for the purpose the application is trying to serve.</span>"<u></u><u></u></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">I'm glad to hear Plinian Core is active, I only recently discovered it and think it is a good initiative. The species data I've seen is in quite diverse and in unstandardised formats. It would be nice to see some of the big providers using

<p class="MsoNormal">Hi Chuck,<u></u><u></u></p>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">thanks for your point. The use cases I'm thinking of are conservation red-listing; horizon-scanning for potential new invasives; early warning of new aliens; impact assessment and
invasion monitoring. We have recently be discussing the possibility of automating all of these process so that they can be repeated regularly, or as soon as new data becomes available. Obviously, for this we need observations, but we also need check-lists
to tell us what is considered native or alien, present or extinct.<u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">I know more about invasive species research than red-listing, but I am aware that the current rate of red-listing is so slow that most things will become extinct before they are
assessed. Given that the IUCN criteria are so clear, it should be possible to automate the whole process using GBIF. The only limitation with then be mobilizing the observations.<u></u><u></u></p>
