> Hello Hugues,
> 
> On Friday Yura and I were working on fixing up our data import to crawl through the related artifacts. This fixed most of our broken links but we noticed that a few more still were having issues.
> 
> I went back and had it crawl through the highlighted artifacts as well, but it didn't help. 
> 
> I did some further investigation and discovered that on the exhibition the accession number is written with capital letters, such as M996X.3.327. However, on the artifact itself it is written with lower case letters (m996x.3.327). This means that when we do our searches for it in couch, it cannot be located. 
> 
> I'm not entirely sure how many artifacts are like this. I've only noticed these two so far m996x.3.330, m996x.3.327.
> 
> Would you be able to update the data? If not we could probably work in a temporary fix if we can assume that accession numbers are not case sensitive. 
> 
> Thanks
