feature request #9340
Updated by Katja Luther about 3 years ago
copied from #9267 (1) check above ticket for remaining issues. Most important is to have a preference to handle the workflow according to the project needs. Also the decision dialog can be improved. Preferences could be: * Always delete sec (without warning) * warning, with option to immediately select new sec (buttons for old sec, new parent sec, old parent sec, or reference select dialog) + cancel * Keep without warning if syn sec and new parent sec (and old parent sec(?) are the same, warn otherwise (this handles the default usecase very well) * Keep always * Always use new parent sec * Always use old parent sec (???). (2) also we should check similar usecases. E.g. when making an accepted taxon a synonym the same check should be done. We should check all such operations This is a list of operations: * change synonym to MAN/PP * change synonym to accepted taxon * change taxon to synonym * change MAN/PP to synonym
