That is great! An example to be followed!
Based on a quick check I get the impression that links to a page in a
checklist (Page Image in Published List) are much more common than links to
the original publication (Page Image for Protologue), so I am a little wary
of the 18000 links to "page images (jpg) of original descriptions". ;-) But
a great achievement nonetheless!
How do authors of new names feel about contributing .pdf's (or .jpg's) of
the protologues ?
