Unplaced as a new taxonomic status is relevant for many datasets. It is more intuitive than bare name. Are any taxon properties such as extinct needed? Or is unplaced synonymous to bare name?

Current 5 taxonomic status values: http://api.checklistbank.org/vocab/taxonomicstatus
2 being accepted: accepted & provisionally accepted

The taxonomic status vocabulary might need a broader discussion, e.g. how to deal with invalid and doubtful names. WFO also uses unchecked (A name that has not been checked by the contributing TEN) and ambiguous (A name that has been checked by the contributing TEN but could not be resolved as accepted or synonym).
