This example of an established heading for a geographic name includes as the
first indicator value in all of the variable data fields. 008/06 is coded because
this heading cannot be subdivided geographically. Authoritative reference sources
are usually cited in 670 fields to justify the form of the name in field 151
and any 4XX/5XX tracing fields in geographic name heading records.
