    Morpheme, you have been requesting a lot of species, and have proven to deeply care and know about species in your area for a long time. Therefore, if you're up for it, I'm hereby promoting you to moderator. This means you can promote images to the homepage, edit species data, and also create new species.

    You should now be able to see an "eye" icon in the footer which brings you to the moderation panel, which explains it all. When you create your first manual species (when the automatic system does not work), please do take some time to read the instructions in the sidebar, it's a somewhat delicate process.

    To be clear, this status does not oblige you to anything, but it makes it possible. I hope you enjoy your new status :)     Posted 10 years ago
