As an administrator for BIE I want to prevent species descriptions for particular species from displaying as they might be deemed inappropriate and threaten to damage ALA reputation.

Background
The ALA does not have control on the editorial process of the species descriptions where it sources information from (currently Wikipedia via EOL). In some instances the information sourced might be considered inaccurate, offending, related to a different species, for example Eucalyptus described as an invasive species from the point of view of a botanist in the USa.

TBC What is the current implementation?
It seems this is a regexp-like based configuration file maintained by a software developer.

Requirements

  • A BIE administrator with no technical knowledge needs access to a UI function to block (blacklist) content for a specific species.
  • Updates to ALA's taxonomy must preserve the rules for existing blocked content.
  • An additional admin screen must be created to display existing species pages which content has been blocked.

Q: Can we block only a section of an article as opposed the whole article?

Here’s a good example of BIE content that needs to be explicitly blacklisted and/or will be fixed by the Taxonomy update

From https://support.ehelp.edu.au/helpdesk/tickets/180252

The first result in a search for Rivularia. Category Bacteria, but the description is for freshwater snails,

This won't be fixed with a taxonomy update - While Rivularia is both a valid genus name for Bacteria and Snails - the snails aren't going to appear in the updated taxonomy, so blacklisting would be the only answer.
