The DCM Z1 says to remove terms for jurisdiction or other distinguishing terms. 
So:

Korea not Korea (South)
Russia not Russia (Federation)

and Linyi, Shandong Sheng, China without the qualifier South

We came across another issue with putting place names in the 370 in the form 
used in a qualifier.  There is a place established as:
Linyi (Shandong Sheng, China : South)

How does that get entered in 370 $e?  Linyi, Shandong Sheng, China ?
What happens with the "South" part? (There is another Linyi in the northern 
part of the province.)

Is the place established correctly according to RDA?  It's complicated by the 
fact that the authority record seems to conflate the Shi (2nd order 
administrative division) with the populated place.
