Also, Jeff, can you please reply to the last question in my previous comment?
recordCreationDate is intended to capture when the legacy authority record information or newly created entity record information was created; for the seed person, organization, and place entities, this is not known, and thus the existing ingested entities do not have a recordCreationDate element and value. We will attempt to hide this form element in the CWRC person entity dialog using CSS.
recordChangeDate is intended to capture the date the entity record information was last changed or modified. With respect to seed entities that have been ingested, only place entities have a recordChangeDate, as this information is/was readily available in the source GeoNames record. Regarding recordChangeDate being created when person entity is created: One could argue that upon record creation, this is also the last date of record modification, so a newly created entity using the dialog forms would have both a recordCreationDate and a recordChangeDate, and that date would be today's date.

I wonder if we shouldn’t create a recordCreationDate for seed/legacy entities. It is when we’re creating the record, and we can add a description item along the lines of “Batch ingest for incorporation into CWRC entity collection” or some such. What do you think?

We could do that, Susan. There is a bit of tension/confusion in whether the child elements of recordInfo refer to administrative metadata about when the original legacy authority record was created, or whether they apply to the first transformation into our entity structure, or whether they apply or the entity records upon ingest into the repository, or whether there is a mixture of all three scenarios among the various child elements of recordInfo.

What do you think would be best? I was trying to get around the notion of having to customize CSS since it seemed to me reasonable to indicate when the CWRC record was created. It’s not like any of these entities really pre-existed CWRC in this form, so it seemed to me reasonable. Do you think it’s unwise?

I just tested the current behaviour:
When creating a new entity, the "Record creation date" label appears on the last line in the form, which might be somewhat confusing for the users. Can it be removed like the field was?
When editing an existing entity, the "Record creation date" label, together with the field it precedes show up, with the field populated with the record creation date. The content of the field can't be modified, but the field can be removed by pressing the "-" button to its right. This removes the record creation date tag from the XML, which shouldn't be allowed.
As always, very thorough testing, Mihaela!

I've used CSS to hide. It should still maintain the form value and thus prevent the creation date from disappearing from the XML serialization stored within Fedora after an edit.
