Expansion of source metadata fields

Currently the url for the source document is captured. The information obtained from the source for the case record can be buried within the document, perhaps requiring translation. In addition there can be more than one source per case and curator decisions made upon which part of which source document should be used in the line list.
It might be useful to somehow provide an audit trail for this, to show where the information came from in the source and how the line list was created to help others understand the data. Perhaps something for discussion with the curation team.
