Our cataloguers (so I'm told), always check the 1**, 4**, 6** and 7** 
authority entries -- it's an intrinsic part of the biblio db integrity 
without which we lose the OPAC usefulness of being able to click on 
authority links.  I've just had a quick look, and here's an example of how 
things can go wrong:

Time-Life Books

<http://koha-admin/cgi-bin/koha/catalogue/search.pl?type=intranet&op=do_search&idx=an,phr&q=6585>4 
biblio(s)
Time-Life Books.

<http://koha-admin/cgi-bin/koha/catalogue/search.pl?type=intranet&op=do_search&idx=an,phr&q=12090>74 
biblio(s)

Automation is wonderful, but the "Mark 1 human eyeball" is still superior :=)

Best -- Paul
