Announcement text given by the package's contributor:
Publications that reference many names require editors and proofreaders to track those names in the text and index. These name authority macros allow authors and compilers to normalize occurrences of names, variant name forms, and pen names in the text and index. This may help minimize writing and production time and cost.
