Description
In user/base_json_upload.py
The method is way too long and hard to understand.
It should hopefully be possible to make it shorter/more readable/more efficient.
Maybe consider doing the same for other json_uploads

Research direction
Start by reading validate_entry in user/base_json_upload.py and identify why its current flow is difficult to follow. Compare the implementation with other json_uploads only if their validation is relevant. Done means a shorter, more readable and more efficient validation method, with equivalent behavior preserved.
