The bulk editor allows multiple taxon records that share <strong>Names</strong>, <strong>Name Relationships</strong>,		<strong>References, Specimens and Observations,</strong> or <strong>Authors and Author Teams</strong> data to be edited. These data types are not

		easily edited in the course of normal taxon editing and are frequently referenced (shared) in several places within a dataset, therefore they are

		edited in a separate location.

	</p>

	<p>

		Furthermore References frequently contain a number of duplicate entries, for example, after a mass import, where multiple entries for a single object

		must be merged to insure data integrity. The Bulk Editor allows you to search for and merge duplicate reference records.

The <strong>Bulk Editor</strong> consists of a search field and a list editor. The list is populated when a search is executed. The<strong>Details Panel</strong> is used to display and edit details of the object which is currently activated; changes made in the		<strong>Details Panel</strong> are reflected immediately in the list.

		This version of the manual will explain how to edit the name of multiple taxa records.
