Screens and settings
Person Page
A person record's identity details, bio, institution links, possible duplicates and the merge and delete buttons.
The person page is the screen where you edit the details of a person record. You open the page by pressing the person's name in the Catalogue → People & institutions list.
Page header
The header shows the person's name, the ORCID iD if there is one, and how many publications the person contributed to. If the person is linked to a user account, the "Linked to a user account" label appears. The Public page button opens the person's author page on the public site.
On the page of a merged person, the note "This profile was merged into another profile." and the Open the current profile link appear. The page of a deleted person has a deletion note and the Restore button.
Identity details

| Given name and Family name | The given name and family name used in citations and exports. A person with two family names appears in citations with the whole family name.

Bio and institution links
On the Short bio card, the Turkish and English texts are written on separate tabs. You can enter at most 4000 characters in each language.
Each row on the Affiliations card has the Institution, Title / position, From and To fields. Add institution adds a new row. A person can have at most 20 institution links.
The Save button becomes active when you make a change.
Side cards
- The Possible duplicates card shows the person's pending matches with their similarity percentage. Each row gives the other person's name and the reason for the match, for example the same ORCID iD or a similar name. The name opens the other person's page. Only people with the merge permission see the card.
- The Merge with another person button opens the merge window with this person as the source. If there are unsaved changes, the panel asks before it opens the merge window.
- The Delete person button is active only for a person who does not appear in any publication.
