It has come to my attention that this paper used a ROR of 04cr3xz70 for an affiliation:

{                                                                                                                            
      "name": "Normandie University",
      "ror": "04cr3xz70",
      "department": null,
      "street": null,
      "city": "Caen",
      "state": null, 
      "country": "France",
      "postcode": null
}

That is the wrong ROR for the affiliation. It probably should have been 051kpcy16. I think the problem was that the search may have been done on the English spelling of the name, but it should have been the French spelling Normandie Université. The search is not multi-lingual, but it probably should match all possible names in the ROR record. I think we only use the name labeled ror_display.

There is another affiliation for that paper that has wrong fields in it:

{
      "name": "Key Laboratory of Mathematics Mechanization, Academy of Mathematics and Systems Science, Chinese Academy of Sciences",
      "ror": "02jkmyk67",
      "department": null,
      "street": null,
      "city": "Beijing",
      "state": "NJ",
      "country": "China",
      "postcode": "08544"
 },

This has a postcode from New Jersey, and also the state.

This leads me to think that our UI for selecting a ROR is too confusing.
