Data Errors

If you have discovered a data error – typing error, missing words, misspelled author name, missing articles etc. – there’s now an integrated reporting mechanism on PEP-Web.

From the page where you have located the error, click on the Help icon “?” on the main toolbar. From the dropdown list click on “Report a Data Error” to open the form.

 

 

Your user details and the article location will already be loaded. Fill out the rest of the form and do so as fully as you can. Click on “Submit”. PEP is very grateful for comments that help us to improve the quality of the database.

 

 

Author Index

Please note, PEP-Web no longer has an Author Index. When you type in an author’s name using the new search features, the system has been engineered to be able to pick up all ways of presenting it (see image below). When journal articles or books are added to the archive, the author area is not changed to make author names more consistent than they were in the printed publications (e.g., sometimes author names are published in different ways, with or without middle initials), thus author’s names can only be updated if what is presented on PEP-Web differs from the actual publication. In this case, please report it as a data error.
