Posting of "Master List of Online Taxonomy References"

Just in case there are those editors that don't regularly visit the "Taxonomy Proposals" forum, I thought it was worth mentioning here that Charley Eiseman has begun work on creating a list for various insect groups of links to online sources for taxonomic reference. There will undoubtedly be some ensuing (and ongoing) debate over which sources are most appropriate, but this is an excellent step towards the goal of standardizing the reference sources used by all editors in creating new guide pages and emending existing information on the site. Please take a moment of your time to view Charley's post and consider bookmarking it for future reference. Here's the link:

Thanks Harsi--
I hadn't noticed this forum--all tucked away down there--until you commented on that page.
