At UF, the NACO coordinator along with the back-up coordinator review
all name and series authority records before submitting them to the
National database and it's done this way mainly for better quality
control.

Subject: [PCCLIST] Review of NACO contributions

Penn State is re-evaluating its procedures for contributing Name 
Authority Records through NACO.  We would like to know whether your 
institution has a policy that every NAR is checked by someone other 
than the cataloger who created the record before it is 
contributed.  If so, do you feel that this level of quality control 
is justified in terms of the errors identified?
