Reason: a discussion shows that one shouldn't paid attention to "infant", "helpless" and "infantile" words. Separate words for "altricial/precocial", stages of development like larvae, imago etc. and for immature/mature are to be invented instead.

Sounds reasonable. Is there a way to implement this while keeping the original wording available for reference? Many gismu definitions need improvement, but we probably want to keep the original wording safe somewhere as a historical record.

Technically issue 131 says that no definition can be edited since otherwise the concept of voting becomes useless.
This means that definitions entered by "officialdata" can't be changed since this user is not a human. In case  some definitions are already edited we will be able to reupload them. The issue also states that one must be able to export all definition from a given user, "officialdata" in this case.
When JVS API is available we will be able to create apps that are able to interact with it thus implementing JVS 2.0 as we want it.
