来自全球生物多样性信息设施（GBIF）和澳大利亚生活地图集（ALA）的已命名的澳大利亚本土千足虫的发生记录与作者独立编制的澳大利亚千足虫（MoA）网站的相同记录进行了比较。比较揭示了MoA中一些以前未注意到的错误，以及聚合数据集中大量的错误和其他问题。农业部和一些数据提供者的数据库中的错误已经得到纠正，但在数据提供者向这些聚合器提供更新之前，这些错误将保留在GBIF和ALA中。如本文所述，由专家志愿者进行审计并不常见。有人建议，聚合器应进行更多或更有效的数据检查，并在发现可能的错误时询问数据提供者，而不是简单地否认对聚合内容的责任。
Occurrence records for named, native Australian millipedes from the Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF) and the Atlas of Living Australia (ALA) were compared with the same records from the Millipedes of Australia (MoA) website, compiled independently by the author. The comparison revealed some previously unnoticed errors in MoA, and a much larger number of errors and other problems in the aggregated datasets. Errors have been corrected in MoA and in some data providers’ databases, but will remain in GBIF and ALA until data providers have supplied updates to these aggregators. An audit by a specialist volunteer, as reported here, is not a common occurrence. It is suggested that aggregators should do more, or more effective, data checking and should query data providers when possible errors are detected, rather than simply disclaim responsibility for aggregated content.
