standardize_authors R Documentation
Standardize author names
Description
Uppercase, whitespace normalisation, and dot removal from initials
(F.J. → FJ). Name order and format are preserved — consistent with
how bibliometrix handles multi-source data.
Usage
standardize_authors(x, flip_names = FALSE)
Arguments
x
Character vector of author names.
flip_names
Logical. If TRUE, names in Last, First format are
reordered to First Last. Off by default — enable only when all names
in x reliably follow the Last, First convention.
Value
Character vector, uppercased and cleaned.
