+<li>Start testing cleanups of authors that Peter sent last week</li>
+<li>Out of 40,000+ rows, Peter had indicated corrections for ~3,200 of them—too many to look through carefully, so I did some basic quality checking:
+
+<ul>
+<li>Trim leading/trailing whitespace</li>
+<li>Find invalid characters</li>
+<li>Cluster values to merge obvious authors</li>
+</ul></li>
+<li>That left us with 3,180 valid corrections and 3 deletions:</li>
+</ul>
+
+<pre><code>$ ./fix-metadata-values.py -i authors-fix-3180.csv -f dc.contributor.author -t correct -m 3 -d dspacetest -u dspacetest -p fuuu
+$ ./delete-metadata-values.py -i authors-delete-3.csv -f dc.contributor.author -m 3 -d dspacetest -u dspacetest -p fuuu
