Slot: creator
Agent(s) who created or compiled the data — each a Person or an Organization, selected per node by agentType from the curated is_person flag (may include ORCID identifiers). Always emitted as an array; a single-element set holding the MIDAS Coordination Center Organization when no creators are recorded. Range is Agent, the Person/Organization supertype, so the generated JSON Schema accepts either subclass.
