Think I've got it. So, would the following be correct? Also, should the
value of the <preferredForm> be controlled?

<nameEntryParallel>

        <nameEntry xml:lang="eng" scriptCode="Latn">

        <part>Der Nersessian, Sirarpie</part>

        <preferredForm>ICFA</preferredForm>

        </nameEntry>

    <nameEntry xml:lang="arm" scriptCode="Latn"
transliteration="alalcRomanization">

          <part>Ter-Nersesian, Sirarp'i Veronik'</part>

        </nameEntry>

    <authorizedForm>Virtual International Authority File</authorizedForm>

    </nameEntryParallel>

    <nameEntry>

          <part>Nersessian, Sirarpie der</part>

          <alternativeForm>Virtual International Authority
File</alternativeForm>

        </nameEntry>

Thanks, Kathy!
