- Recent deposits review: Look for the inconsistencies listed below. To compare with other authors, search for the author’s name in the FRDR DSpace community.
- Full review only: see Personal names in dc.contributor.author and datacite.contributor.*.

Common inconsistencies include:
- Addition or omission of middle initial
- Direct order instead of indirect order
- Missing period after middle initial
- Extra space between initials

When deciding which version of a name to use in FRDR, consider these criteria (which may conflict; use your best judgment):
- Which name does the author usually publish under?
- If there is an ORCID, what name do they have on their ORCID profile?
- Which name is more complete? Prefer the more complete name.
- Which name is used for the majority of records in FRDR? Try to minimize the number of changes made.
- Which name is used for the more recent submission(s)? Prefer the name used more recently.

Geographic Bounding BoxCadre englobant géographiquedatacite.geolocation.geolocationBoxGeographical MetadataManualOptionalRepeatablePublicnoneSpatial region where the data was gathered or about which the data is focused. Provide a bounding box with decimal degree coordinates.If possible, verify this is a valid bounding box using http://bboxfinder.com/ or another resource. With bboxfinder, coordinates must be placed in the order (xMin (W), yMin (S), xMax (E), yMax (N)). For example:

datacite.geolocation.geolocationBox: 50.94256 -115.23563 50.97719 -115.13638
S = yMin: 50.94256
W = xMin:-115.23563
N = yMax: 50.97719
E = xMax: -115.13638
(xMin, yMin, xMax, yMax) = (-115.23563,50.94256,-115.13638,50.97719)
South Latitude: 49.203
West Longitude: -123.121
North Latitude: 49.297
East Longitude: -123.000
Enter the southbound latitude, westbound longiitude, northbound latitude, and eastbound longitude in that order, without comma separation.
49.203 -123.121 49.297 -123.000Verify that the format is correct (S W N E).
Verify that latitudes (S and N) are between -90 and +90 and that longitudes (W and E) are between -180 and +180.
Verify that S < N (always) and W < E (usually, unless crossing the prime meridian).

Recent deposits review only: Verify bounding box matches the location the dataset is about. See "Curator Guide - Submission Interface" column for steps to visualize bounding box.

This is incorrect, and the publicationYear of a version should always be the most recent year and match the date issued.
