Primes

• Alias-to-Authority Mapping
  • In library and archival authority control, cataloging systems maintain an authority record for a person, body, work, or subject, and route transliterations, pseudonyms, and translated forms to it, so two catalogers entering different forms still link to the same entity.

Mechanisms

• Canonical Index or Registry
  • This is the discipline libraries call authority control — one governed record for each entity, which everything else references.

    This sourceDefines authority data as controlled records that identify entities and provide governed access points referenced by bibliographic systems.

• Identifier Minting Workflow
  • The discipline that guards against this is authority control

    This sourceTreats identifiers, controlled access points, governing rules, and responsible agencies as parts of authority data used to identify specific entities.

Verification

Does it exist? Not checked yet. This entry carries no identifier to resolve. It was extracted from the citation as written in the article, normalized, and deduplicated against the rest of the registry.

Does it back the claim? Not recorded. Neither this nor any other of the 3 citations of this work carries a recorded support check.

Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
