The system already has backend support for this, I just haven't written the front-end system that lets the information get inputted.
At the moment, when you add a latin name to a plant, you get two fields:
1) Text field to enter the full latin name.
2) Select pulldown that lets you choose either "Synonym" or "Accepted".
My next step is to add 3 more fields:
3) Source (ITIS, USDA, etc).
4) Date of source (text field)
5) Link to specific entry at the source (text field)
Now, as for #3, do we want that to be a text field where you can type whatever the contributor wants to type in?
