[Data-modeling] Publishing Companies

[evening0star]

I've tried cleaning up those cases also, and wondered what the best
thing to do is.  I believe in most if not all cases these are people
from "long ago" where they could be a "self publisher" or an
entreprenuer publisher (or whatever).  Perhaps in those cases
Profession=Publisher is enough (or whatever else may be appropriate)?

I agree that making the title more descriptive is good.  If it is
designed for just companies, then it should say so.
