A key requirement of the Scratchpads that we have been unable to meet until now is the ability to handle biological taxonomic hierarchies of taxon names within a site. Various users have come up with their own solutions to handling names, but in an effort to produces something more robust we have started to play with Drupal's built in taxonomy module. Through this tool you can tag web pages (nodes) on your site around these names and dynamically create taxon pages with new information as it is submitted to the site. I have posted more information on our experiments with this at: http://vsmith.info/DrupalTaxonomy
