Unqualified personal name headings: no automatic control
When you control a personal name heading that is comprised of ‡a only, the system requires that you accept the heading manually by choosing a matching authority record from the Control Heading window.
Example: The following heading in a bibliographic record, and the person being described is a French hornist: Hatfield, Michael. ‡4 prf.
If automatically controlled, this heading is linked to LCCN: n78080498 (Hatfield, Michael). However, the correct heading for the French hornist is represented by: no98070700 (Hatfield, Michael, ‡d 1936-).
Manual controlling is required for unqualified personal name headings to ensure that users take time to view an exact match based on text (such as n78080498) and to consider whether a match based on content (such as no98070700) is more appropriate.
