Fields without language tag are only indexed for fallback language (English) even if language doesn't make much sense for these fields #674

Closed markusjt closed 1 month ago

markusjt commented 2 months ago

Fields such as AuthEnty (Author), IDNo (PID) and holdings (link to SP's website) are indexed from DDI-C 2.5 similar to other fields where fallback language is used when indexing if they have no language tag even though language tag doesn't make much sense for them. Language tag is also not currently required for these fields in profile.

For example on study 2020-105-1-1 (SND) PID disappears when switching to Swedish.

Related to https://github.com/cessda/cessda.metadata.profiles/issues/172. Currently dates require language but if it's made optional, dates will only show up for English if they then don't have language tag.
