User story
During journal article submission, on the author details page, I might have a nearly blank author record created when searching for a coauthor.
Janeway version
1.8.x
Cause
This happens when the ORCID search function hits an error. I tested it with:
- incomplete ORCID settings in settings.py, and a valid ORCID
- complete ORCID settings in settings.py, and an invalid ORCID (last digit incremented by 1 to violate the checksum digit)
Expected behavior
The error is detected, a suitable message to the user is generated and displayed, and no author record is created.
