I hope I'm not being contentious here, but the definition for creator
reads:
"Label: Creator
Element Description: The person or organization primarily responsible
for creating the *intellectual* content of the resource. For example,
authors in the case of written documents, artists, photographers, or
illustrators in the case of visual resources."
Are we supposed to say that Ricky created the intellectual content of
the resource? I find this very confusing. If we are to believe that
Ricky did create the intellectual content, we need to devise some sort
of comprehensive definition.
If Ricky changed Adam's picture in some way (made it a negative image,
added his face to the picture, etc.) matters would change.
