Description

We've moving old datasets into the dataverse. I think citation date should be able to be set via GUI, not just the API (see https://guides.dataverse.org/en/latest/api/native-api.html#set-citation-date-field-type-for-a-dataset )

The issue points to the Native API citation-date documentation; start there, then trace the GUI dataset metadata editing flow. Done means users can set the citation date through the GUI rather than only through the API.
