Structural and other changes to the clock
I've been fiddling around as usual (I seem to be suffering from Michelangelo syndrome), and have come up with some improvements and fixes:

Navigation
I'm switching to linked headers for the monthly local keys. This will make links to the key pages appearing on the main regional page, which in turn can be followed to show the global-temperate infobox and the links.

Data interpretations
All "global-temperate" regions will soon have a data analysis and comparison system to match up to the global-temperate keys. Monthly keys will also have a template linking to the best match(es) on the g-t keys.

Top

 * Add a "general information" field for discussing things not addressed by the other fields
 * Add a "cookbook link" field to make links to the wikibooks cookbook for edible plants with recipes
 * Remove the "quiz" link (the mediawiki for the quizzes has long been broken), and add a "fruit" link (for the soon-to-come fruit clock).
 * Add a "higher taxa" link (from species to genus, variety to species, etc.)

Middle
Add multiple "new region #" fields, since we have at least 3 new ones coming up. We'll name these starting at 3-12... the bot will be better able to keep track if we make sure each new field has a distinct name.

Bottom
Add several semi-defined fields to increase catagorizations.
 * Flower shape: will use a "see instructions" clarifier... too many possible entries!
 * Inflorescence type: will use a "see instructions" clarifier... too many possible entries!
 * Veination: palmate/pinnate/linear


 * Species field: to keep species general records up to date for species with multiple cultivars


 * Separate color fields: embedded templates are too comfusing and hard to keep track of
 * multicolor field: mono/bi/multi/variable


 * Separate type fields: tree/shrub/vine/herbaceous


 * Separate pollination fields: far to complicated as it is now.
 * wind
 * animal


 * Nectar source quality: for logging plants that are often/sometimes/never covered in insects


 * Remove calander season field (already provided now by global cross-categorizations)


 * Toxic to humans
 * Toxic to livestock
