Missing CONFIDENCE value

COMMENT: CONFIDENCE
without any confidence value. I think this should not be valid, so please create a rule for the validator and correct the confidence values.

Should we have a controlled vocabulary?
I've just pinged the contributor of those records by email, I can't find his GitHub handle. They originate from Justin in Canada.
Re controlled vocabulary, yes, some of those are certainly NOT confidence statements but rather statements of origins. We have a standard set of options in RMassBank, which could be a start for a controlled vocabulary. Eventually we should discuss a proper ontology with @sneumann to make various confidence statements compatible with the most commonly-used confidence level schemes (scheme, year, level ...). For now I'd say anything related to an organism should go into a different COMMENT field?
... and I could see we could unify some of those where just spacing and capitals are different ... so that we have fewer varieties of the same comment?
