I'd say there's
a difference, for example, between Norah Jones the person, who
would be
<span class="fn">Norah Jones</span>, and Norah Jones the musical act,
which would be <span class="fn org">Norah Jones</span>. </snip>
That strikes me as no more sensible now than it did then. If I cite
her,
as "Norah Jones said", am I referring to her as a person, or an
organisation?
Note I started that suggestion with "if it's just a generic contact
that you know nothing about..." So in that context, there's no
possible answer to your questions. I wasn't suggesting we treat all
musicians as organizations when we *do* know they're individuals, just
that our default assumption of musical acts is that they're
organizations. You're of course welcome to publish under different
assumptions; I wasn't suggesting we should all standardize on this.
Peace,
Scott
