Post-migration clean up tasks | David | Some initial tasks for your consideration:

Suggestion for revised explanatory note for Title field | Melissa |
|
Need to address inconsistencies with the date field | Melissa | It is currently impossible to sort or filter records by date. Could we prioritize clean-up of that field and either request only the year or implement multiple fields/a date picker to accommodate month and date? |
