Documenting day-to-day work on the CGSpace repository.

  • I checked IITA’s 259 Feb 14 records from last month for duplicates using Atmire’s Duplicate Checker on a fresh snapshot of CGSpace on my local machine and everything looks good
  • I am now only waiting to hear from her about where the items should go, though I assume Journal Articles go to IITA Journal Articles collection, etc…
  • Looking at the other half of Udana’s WLE records from 2018-11
    • I finished the ones for Restoring Degraded Landscapes (RDL), but these are for Variability, Risks and Competing Uses (VRC)
    • I did the usual cleanups for whitespace, added regions where they made sense for certain countries, cleaned up the DOI link formats, added rights information based on the publications page for a few items
    • Most worryingly, there are encoding errors in the abstracts for eleven items, for example:
    • 68.15% � 9.45 instead of 68.15% ± 9.45
    • 2003�2013 instead of 2003–2013
  • I think I will need to ask Udana to re-copy and paste the abstracts with more care using Google Docs
