Point of order! Main entry was adopted by AACR2 - Eric Hunter argued

Whether main entry idea has passed its time I leave for others more

the idea of primary responsibility for a work and thus serves to link

Because the rule of three from AACR2 is gone, it doesn't matter how many
creators there are for a work. In RDA the authorized access point for a
work is the combination of the first named or prominently named creator
and the preferred title for the work. Hence:

Yes, I do remember now. This is a change on account of the rule of three. In
RDA is there an exception or another rule that governs the entry under title
for video recordings, serials...

Dear RDA-L readers,
Although RDA to my knowledge makes no mention of the concept of main entry,
discussion has taken place whether a heading for an editor might be tagged 100,
effectively designating that heading as main entry.
Among other concerns, cuttering is affected. CSM G 53
Editors are not considered creators in RDA, nor are they considered other
persons, families, or corporate bodies associated with the work, so they
