Closed issue: More missing colons
Added by Fredrik Palmkron about 4 years ago — Closed by Brian Fisher

Again, no big deal visually, but slightly malformatted items are harder to parse by script.

Missing colons

Redundant colon

Something weird ("Status as species")

"see also"

Malformatted but simple "see also"s like this one:

See also Ward et al., 2016: 346

are easy for a script to pick up, so we don't have to spend time cleaning them up manually, but more advanced items like this one are not easy to parse:

Combination in Nothomyrmica: Wheeler, 1915i: 61; in Eocenomyrma: Dlussky & Radchenko, 2006b: 565. See also Radchenko & Dlussky, 2016: 405; Radchenko & Perkovsky, 2018: 287, figs. 1-2.

@Fredrik Palmkron
I took all of these but the "see also" which I think don't need corrected at this time because all "see also {" and "see also: {" need to be replaced with "Status as species;" content from Bolton NGC.

Nice! It will make identifying and fixing homonym cases easier.

Noted on the 'see also's; I will put GitHub #842 on hold.

Aaaand you should receive and email notification for this.
