Subject: [PCCLIST] Prince William's authority record
Hi PCC List,
I just saw that Prince William’s authority record was revised to reflect his new title and I’m not sure that the 1xx is correctly formulated. It is now:
**100 1 Cambridge, William, $c Prince, Duke of, $d 1982-
But given that he the grandchild of the monarch, shouldn’t rule 22.16A4 apply, and the 1xx be:
**100 0 William, $c Prince, Duke of Cambridge, $d 1982-
Similar to how Prince Andrew is entered under given name:
**Andrew, $c Prince, Duke of York, $d 1960-
I freely admit that the rules for nobility/royalty confuse me so I could be all wrong. Anyhow, what do you all think?
