Re: [Dspace-tech] DSpace-tech Digest, Vol 30, Issue 16
Hi Joseph, this is normal behavior. You are not able to enter a year like 20?? in the submission form in a date field. But you're able to have (which you shouldn't) date like that by editing the item or importing it.

Re: [Dspace-tech] DSpace-tech Digest, Vol 30, Issue 16
Thanks Claudia, I should have mentioned that no 20?? dates appear in the metadatavalue.text_value field, so I'm wondering where they went -- has something happened in the transfer from input to database, or is that normal behaviour? We are using DSpace 1.4.2. -Original Message- From: Claudia Jürgen [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 07 October 2008 15:54 To: Joseph Greene Cc: dspace-tech@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [Dspace-tech] DSpace-tech Digest, Vol 30, Issue 16 Hi Joseph, the date will be stored in the mangled form. So if you got an item with dc.date.issued= 20?? imported or created a mangled date via editing an item, it will lead to some problems - it will not be displayed properly in default item display - it will not appear in browse lists and so on.

Hi Joseph, the date will be stored in the mangled form. So if you got an item with dc.date.issued= 20?? imported or created a mangled date via editing an item, it will lead to some problems - it will not be displayed properly in default item display - it will not appear in browse lists and so on. At the moment there is no metadata type to represent "fuzzy" dates, or something like 123 b.c ... For the time being it might be best to create an own metadata field for it and not use it as date type.

Hello all, I'm reviewing our metadata input and would like to know if anyone knows what happens to 'mangled dates'? We had been putting years in like 20?? When unsure of the exact publication date and I've found the following in the logs: 2008-07-31 12:26:53,293 WARN org.dspace.content.DCDate @ Mangled date: 20?? Exception: java.lang.NumberFormatException: For input string: "20??" How does DSpace handle this error-- what happens to the date? What do others do to represent unknown dates?
