2. Producing the names index - E) Cross reference
|
|
|
If it it is necessary to perform a cross-references, one should
take into account:
- Alternative names/spellings, including
exonyms not used in the map.
Example: Even if the name Ljouwert is not included on the
map, because of space constraints, this Frisian language
name version for the capital of the Frisian-speaking province
of Frisia in the Netherlands, may be incorporated in the
names index to show it refers to the Dutch-language version
name Leeuwarden.
- Old names (up to 10 years after
their substitution).
- In case of systematic substitution of
names, from one conversion system to another only those names
with changes in the first letters should be incorporated. If
the name Kuibischew changes into Kuybishev, it would still be
recognizable in the index, close to its original position, but
if the name Erewan changes into Yerevan, the original name version
can no longer be retrieved in the index.
