currently, the deleted accounts lead to no contributors being present. as a result, when updating the doi metadata - eg in batch, results in errors.

element contributors: Schemas validity error : Element '{http://www.crossref.org/schema/5.4.0}contributors': Missing child element(s). Expected is one of ( {http://www.crossref.org/schema/5.4.0}organization, {http://www.crossref.org/schema/5.4.0}person_name, {http://www.crossref.org/schema/5.4.0}anonymous ).

due to <contributors /> being empty.

I manually corrected it for now, so that I could update all the info, but in the future, it should be handled automatically.
