[GND editor] Field 930 not displaying actual work title

[afaschon]

When a source record is part of a collection, field 930, "Werktitel", shows the collection’s title instead of the actual work’s title:

Instead, field 930 should be displaying the work’s title as in 100 $p.

In this example case, "Werktitel" should show "Pater noster qui es in coelis", not "Cantiones sacrae de festis praecipuis totius anni".

What is 100$p in the Work Node? To me it seems correct in the example, as it is pointing to Work Node $t, which is called "work title". $p at the moment is not configured in the editor.

From a technical point of view, it is correct, yes. From a user’s point of view it is misleading because the work node is not about any collection a work may or may not be part of but about the individual work (there are also many works that are not part of any collection—their title is displayed correctly).

One problem is that in the GND’s standards, the collection title is a mandatory part of the work title. But we don’t want the collection title to be displayed before the individual work’s title because that is counter-intuitive from most researching points of view.

Is there, in your eyes, any solution to this?

Ok I see! There are a couple solutions, and it depends mostly from the data you want to have in $t and $p. The easiest solution is that one contains always the (eventual) collection name, and the other always the work title - either one is good for me. For example, $p could always be the collection, and we always put the title in $t, or viceversa.
It becomes more shady if $t sometimes has to be a collection name and sometimes a work title, which is the case I would like to avoid.

Thank you! Desiree and I are discussing the problem and we’ll get back to you asap.
