Re: [Dspace-tech] Controlling Metadata Inputs
I am hoping that someone might be able to help me with this problem. For input fields where it is not possible (or practical) to implement controlled vocabularies or drop down lists, is there a less labour-intensive way of preventing data entry errors? For example: The author of several documents is ABC Statistics Inc., but each document is added by a different ePerson,and each of these people makes a spelling error when filling out the AUTHOR field, so these items appear to have different authors. (ABC Statisitcs, Inc., ABC Statistics, Inc, ABC Statistics, etc.). Originally I thought that this would be a minor issue, easily correctable through raw SQL queries to update the offending fields. Unfortunately, my estimates as to the number of mistakes that would be made has proven to be extremely conservative. I do not want to be responsible for correcting so many entries myself, nor do I want to reject so many entries asking users to match the existing AUTHOR name that already exists. I know that I could code a solution if that is absolutely necessary, but I wonder if someone else in the community hasn't already addressed this issue. -- Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.

[Dspace-tech] Moving collections to a new sub-community
We are redoing the community/collection hierarchy and am trying to get some grip on the best way to proceed. As I understand, sub-community management can be done via dspace's administrative tool (CommunityFiliator) and that would be very helpful in what I'm trying to do. However, there is a requirement to move existing collections to a new community/sub-community and based on what I read so far (1,2), this would involve manipulating database directly. I need some clarification on the process: 1. To change the collection-community relationship, I can use the query codeupdate community2collection set community_id=NewCommunityID where community_id=OldCommunityID and collection_id=CollectionID; /code 2. There is a reference to a second query related to communities2item table: code update communities2item set community_id=NewCommunityID where item_id in (select item_id from item where owning_collection=CollectionID) /code Do I need to execute #2 above for each community that the item ultimately belongs to ? In other words, is there a difference between moving a collection to a top-level community vs moving it to a sub-community. Any help much appreciated.

[Dspace-tech] what happens to handles, once an item is expunged?
I want to thank the group here at the tech list for the thoughts about what happens to a handle once it is expunged, especially Susan Thonton, Tim Donahue and helix84. We still have some uncertainty around what actually happens with handles after a withdraw vs. an expunge, but my practice at this point is going to be to assume the numbers will not be reused, but not to try to manually reuse handles, anyway. I welcome any further discussion.

Re: [Dspace-tech] what happens to handles, once an item is expunged?
You're welcome! Just to clarify, in case there's any confusion: In the current DSpace code, Handles are *never* reused. As I mentioned, the only small exception (if it is one) is when you restore a deleted item using the AIP Backup Restore tools, then that newly restored item is reassigned the same handle that it had before deletion. As helix84 mentioned, you could manually change the DSpace database or source code to allow handles to be reused, if you had a reason to do so. But, I wouldn't recommend this. Handles are meant to be persistent identifiers, and as such, they really shouldn't be reused for other objects. - Tim On 8/23/2012 1:03 PM, Berry, Irene (CIV) wrote: I want to thank the group here at the tech list for the thoughts about what happens to a handle once it is expunged, especially Susan Thonton, Tim Donahue and helix84.
