Descriptive summary
Due to a problem with google spreadsheets, pid values were mangled in an importer csv. Bulkrax obligingly created new works using the mangled pid, rather than updating the intended existing work.
Expected behavior
Bulkrax should verify pids by ensuring that they have only alphanumeric characters and are minimum 9 characters. Running this check as part of parsing the metadata might be best; i.e. do not process entries that are ok but halt work and alert user.
