I also think that the Larger Work field names should be unique from those
found in the data set. Most often at our center the larger work is a manuscript and this gets lost because the title in the box (see yellow highlighted box is the same
box title as that found above in the dataset Citation fields

I wonder if changing the stylesheet on the Larger work would suffice to make it clear to users that this was distinct from the actual citation. Changing the label is definitely an option too.

+1 from Tamar Norkin:

There's a comment in GitHub about the field labels in the larger work citation section, and how they're the same as the general citation labels. I'd like to second this comment - from what I've seen, first-time metadata creators are often not aware that the larger work section tends to be used for an associated publication. They may be confused by the references to a dataset. Maybe more general language would be helpful here (e.g., "author/originator" as opposed to "dataset author/originator").
