Summary: Citation created by Dryad has duplicate author names

Initial Comment:
When a submission is created in Dryad and the data are pushed to TreeBASE, the citation is auto-entered into TreeBASE. However, typically it seems to duplicate one of the authors (namely the submitter's name). I'm inclined to not simply solve the bug as it is, but rather to list the authors (in their proper order) in the notes field for the submission with instructions for the submitter to enter the author's names de-novo. The reason for this is because when author names are auto-entered from Dryad, they tend to create redundant entries in the event that the authors already exist in TreeBASE. So we really need to prompt the submitter to enter author names using the TreeBASE interface. My recommendation then is to remove the feature that auto-enters author names and instead store the author names (in proper order) in the Notes field, and append the following text: "Please enter these author names into the TreeBASE citation by clicking on the highlighted "Authors" item in the Tool Box"

Message:
I'm going to close this bug because the source of the problem is with
Dryad: the XML file contains duplicate <dc:creator> tags, one for the
submitter and one as an author on the paper. The folks at Dryad will fix
this.
