We have never done much to remove bad records. For first impressions that might be worth doing a bit of.

In an attempt to do so, I've taken all institutions created before 2018 when we starting managing the data.
Removed everything that has a master source (i only remember that midway though). And everything that includes words like university, national park and some other stop words.

The remaining institution names was given to GPT4 which was asked to detect outliers, and rather include too many than too few.

GPT4 response
I see a mix of different types of organizations in your list, including universities, museums, botanical gardens, research institutions, and other organizations related to science and biodiversity.
