Update authorship of submissions in database

[hdrury1]

Two submissions were made by users who wish the corresponding author to have the submission appear on their Reviewer dashboard.

Since we only have the notion of one 'owner' right now, this will mean changing the author within the database.

Once we have sorted our permissions model we should investigate the possibility of a submission appearing on more than one person's dashboard.

Hello @hdrury @peter-hooper

Here’s a request relating to an xpub export where the submitting author (Timothy Aaron Crombie ([email protected])) is not the corresponding author.

Timothy asked me to change the name displayed for their article “Deep sampling of Hawaiian Caenorhabditis elegans reveals high genetic diversity and admixture with global populations” (7d8cb56e-a971-4829-9e24-607c297d0afb (xPub)) (23-07-2019-ISRA-eLife-50465) so it’s linked with the correct corresponding author. I have fixed the eJP submission to show Erik Andersen ([email protected]) as Corresponding author. After the switch Erik has said can we show this submission in their dashboard, I assume they mean their Xpub dashboard (presumably in xpub the paper is still linked to Timothy A Crombie?) Is there a way to update the author in xpub? Thanks

Erik will need to ensure he has an account in xPub (log in with ORCiD) first. then @peter-hooper can work his database magic

Hello @peter-hooper, Erik said he had submitted the paper in his name a second time yesterday, but deleted it once I confirmed we’d change the name. Would you be able to update the submission so it’s in Erik’s name? Thanks.

Hello @hdrury and @peter-hooper, another case where the first author submitted but wrongly assigned themselves as corresponding author. I’m going to fix this in eJP, the correct corresponding author should be Elia Tait Wojno ([email protected])

Paper currently in eJP with wrong corresponding author:
24-07-2019-ISSR-eLife-50534    Simon Früh

Once a submission has left xPub ... ipso-facto its out of date
