I have made a large number of corrections to the EAD records. Many of these corrections were to the connection between an item and a work. Others were to the descriptions of individual items. One result should be that far fewer items in the Integrated Catalog are grouped under the wrong work title.

Encoding errors in 1871 Leaves corrected
A helpful Archive visitor, Samuel Graber, pointed out that the electronic table of contents for this edition didn't have an entry for either "Lo! Victress on the Peaks!" or "World, Take Good Notice." In the transcription file (ppp.00270.xml) both had been mistakenly encoded as sections of the previous poem, "Ethiopia Saluting the Colors." I corrected the structure, added appropriate tagging, validated, and uploaded.

Debris in 1860 and 1867 editions of Leaves
I've revised the XML of the 1860 and 1867 editions of Leaves of Grass to reflect the editorial decision that "Debris" is a cluster of untitled poems rather than a single poem. Besides changing <lg1 type="poem">Debris</lg1> to <lg1 type="cluster">Debris</lg1> and putting <lg2 type="poem"> tags around the individual poems, I've also added <relations> to each poem. In this process, nine new work IDs were created for poems not present in the deathbed and "Debris (Poem)" was removed as a Work.
