conflicting citation instructions

We emphasise the simple one-line citation for GBIF downloads, e.g.

GBIF.org (07 March 2018) GBIF Occurrence Download https://doi.org/10.15468/dl.wbt1cl

However, inside the DwC-A the citations.txt file tells the user to cite datasets individually:

Please cite this data as follows, and pay attention to the rights documented in the rights.txt: Please respect the rights declared for each dataset in the download: Estrelles E (2017). Colección del Banco de Germoplasma de la Universitat de València. Botanical Garden, University of Valencia. Occurrence Dataset https://doi.org/10.15470/dktqcx accessed via GBIF.org on 2018-03-07., http://doi.org/10.15470/dktqcx 10.15470/dktqcx
