<p class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:54.0pt">Comment: Meeting 2 agreed to change the title of this info element from ScientificName to Name to generalise it (Issue
<a href="https://github.com/tdwg/mids/issues/6">https://github.com/tdwg/mids/issues/6</a> refers). At the CETAF Digitisation WG meeting, 1<sup>st</sup> February discussion concluded with the proposal that different information is needed at MIDS-1 than at MIDS-2.
Proposal is to split this information element into ‘Title’ at MIDS-1, akin to the Dublin Core Title term (dc:title) indicating what has been digitized, and ‘Name’ at MIDS-2, being connected to a classification of the object. Values for these two information
elements can be the same or different.<o:p></o:p></p>
