It has been suggested to me in a presentation about RePEc that the RAS 
citations form could be improved on. Namely, the "not my work" button 
should be moved up between the "as" cite and the "in" cite. Currently it 
is below the "in" cite, and it tempts people to click on it to claim they 
have not authored the "in" paper, which is true but not the intended 
action.

Example for Bruce Gardner:

The transmission of world commodity prices to domestic markets under 
policy reforms in developing countries  (article, details)
by John Baffes & Bruce Gardner

Which of these point to the above document?  . Make sure the right ones 
have their checkboxes checked.
