Over time, we have noticed that the text_lang column of the metadatavalues
table has become inconsistent.
We have entries with each of the following values for data entered in
english.
- en_US
- en
- blank
- null
These inconsistencies become problematic when we perform batch metadata
edits.
I am working on an effort to normalize these values.
As a test, I created a new submission and populated a value into every
field on the item submission screen. When the submission was completed, I
ended up with the following results.
- Most entries had a lang of "en"
- dc.date.* entries had a null value
- This applied to user-generated and system-generated dates
- most dc.identifer.uri entries had a null value
- dc.identifier.bibliographicCitation was set to "en"
- dc.relation.ispartofseries had a null value
- dc.relation.uri was set to "en"
Is there a property in one of the item submission workflows that controls
how the text_lang column is set?
