alternative titles
- which is primary? Flor de Monserrat vs Pobre negrito
- current practice varies e.g. second title is:
- true alternative - appended in brackets e.g.
- De todo te olvidas (cabeza de novia)
- better?: De todo te olvidas (Cabeza de novia)
- REDIRECT - appended with '=>' e.g. Copa del olvido => La copa del olvido
- only in workslist, indicates a "redirect"
- i.e. "Copa del olvido" is wrong and the correct title is "La copa del olvido"
- Better?: state only the correct title
- 9 de julio => Nueve de julio
- i.e. "Copa del olvido" is wrong and the correct title is "La copa del olvido"
- only in workslist, indicates a "redirect"
- undetermined - appended with ' / ' e.g. Loca de amor / La loca de amor
- Bad: This is indistinguishable from single title containing ' / ' e.g. La Yumba / Adiós Noniño)
- Represented as a distinct work e.g. El tabernero and Tabernero
- if same work it should be merged and only a redirect left
- missing: criteria of 'same'.
