6. You will be prompted with the question: "Pre-load taxonomy?" Select "YES" or "NO".
7. If you select "YES", a call will be made to the backend to create the tree with populated nodes.
8. If you select "NO", a call will be made to the backend to create an empty tree with just the ranks.
9. The page will then refresh, displaying the new tree.
Description
The Storage tree will need to be created upon the creation of the institution.
In Specify 7, there is not yet a mechanism for creating a new discipline, but when one is added it will be important to allow users to create new trees (Taxon, Geography, LithoStrat, and ChronoStrat).
In Specify 6, users have the option to either import taxonomy from one of our source data spreadsheets (mostly sourced from Catalogue of Life) or to populate the tree themselves after creating the discipline.
For Taxon trees, we need to build a utility for users so that they can easily import data sourced from external sites like GBIF, Catalogue of Life, ITIS, WoRMS, etc. when creating a new discipline.
