MC Mining (https://wikirate.org/MC_Mining_Limited) used to be called Coal of Africa. They rebranded, so we renamed the company. With the last couple of metrics I've tried to rename, I keep getting the error Problems with X metric: +COAL_OF_AFRICA: +2017 company valid company required. This morning I deleted a value with no company attached to it (but with Coal of Africa in the URL) for a different metric, but the same is coming up for the below hazardous waste metric. The URL for the answer https://wikirate.org/Research_Page?company=Coal%20of%20Africa&metric=Global+Reporting+Initiative%2BHazardous+Waste+Recycled+%28G4-EN23-a%29&view=edit&year=2017

I'm not sure what happened - maybe they didn't get renamed in the name change. Is it possible to find how many more of these exist and delete or rename (to MC Mining Limited) these values?

 

Will be much easier to clean up this data (and prevent it from happening again) with the new code.

I think this is fixed on staging.
