- Open [a ticket](https://tracker.atmire.com/tickets-cgiar-ilri/view-ticket?id=706) with Atmire to request a quote for the upgrade to DSpace 6
- Last week Altmetric responded about the [item](https://hdl.handle.net/10568/97087) that had a lower score than than its DOI
- The score is now linked to the DOI
- Another [item](https://handle.hdl.net/10568/91278) that had the same problem in 2019 has now also linked to the score for its DOI
- Another [item](https://hdl.handle.net/10568/81236) that had the same problem in 2019 has also been fixed

## 2020-01-07
- Peter Ballantyne highlighted one more WLE [item](https://hdl.handle.net/10568/101286) that is missing the Altmetric score that its DOI has
- The DOI has a score of 259, but the Handle has no score at all
- I [tweeted](https://twitter.com/mralanorth/status/1214471427157626881) the CGSpace repository link

- Export a list of authors from CGSpace for Peter Ballantyne to look through and correct:
```
dspace=# \COPY (SELECT DISTINCT text_value as "dc.contributor.author", count(*) FROM metadatavalue WHERE resource_type_id = 2 AND metadata_field_id = 3 GROUP BY text_value ORDER BY count DESC) to /tmp/2020-01-08-authors.csv WITH CSV HEADER;
COPY 68790
```
- As I always have encoding issues with files Peter sends, I tried to convert it to some Windows encoding, but got an error:
```
$ iconv -f utf-8 -t windows-1252 /tmp/2020-01-08-authors.csv -o /tmp/2020-01-08-authors-windows.csv
iconv: illegal input sequence at position 104779
```
- According to [this trick](https://www.datafix.com.au/BASHing/2018-09-13.html) the troublesome character is on line 5227:
```
$ awk 'END {print NR": "$0}' /tmp/2020-01-08-authors-windows.csv
5227: "Oue
$ sed -n '5227p' /tmp/2020-01-08-authors.csv | xxd -c1
00000000: 22 "
00000001: 4f O
00000002: 75 u
00000003: 65 e
00000004: cc .
00000005: 81 .
00000006: 64 d
00000007: 72 r
```
- According to the blog post linked above the troublesome character is probably the "High Octect Preset" (81), which vim identifies (using `ga` on the character) as:
```
<e> 101, Hex 65, Octal 145 < ́> 769, Hex 0301, Octal 1401
```
- If I understand the situation correctly it sounds like this means that the character is not actually encoded as UTF-8, so it's stored incorrectly in the database...
- Other encodings like `windows-1251` and `windows-1257` also fail on different characters like "ž" and "é" that _are_ legitimate UTF-8 characters
- Then there is the issue of Russian, Chinese, etc characters, which are simply not representable in any of those encodings
- I think the solution is to upload it to Google Docs, or just send it to him and deal with each case manually in the corrections he sends me
- Re-deploy DSpace Test (linode19) with a fresh snapshot of the CGSpace database and assetstore, and using the `5_x-prod` (no CG Core v2) branch
