        Corrections should be done in source. What ORCID could help to is to propose the change to the source. But I really agree that the information should be the same as in the source (publishers).

        I manually added some citations because ORCID couldn't find them. Then I imported records from SCOPUS and now I have duplicates. It would be nice to be able to remove the ones I added manually.

        I strongly agree. I have works imported from Scopus that have errors in the author names but I am unable to fix the error.

        I endorse such an effort. I also have found errors in imported citations.

        I strongly support this. Many of my works imported without their DOIs. So I tried to add them manually, but was unable to.

        I don't think we should assume every works arrives "perfect" so it would be really good to have the ability to edit records.
