1. Create the Person Entity with the MADS Scholar Form.
2. In the MADS Scholar Form, in the field for "Identifier", enter a controlled value.  (The "Identifier" form field stores to MADS as <identifier type="u1">.)  You will use this identifier later to link citation objects, by entering the same identifier in with author information on a Citation or Thesis object.  (Tip:  Before beginning, pick a system for assigning these identifiers.  A good idea would be to use an existing authority control system, such as university assigned email addresses or Orcid IDs, and use these consistently in your repository.)
   Note: If you link a Citation object to a Person entity, then you change the Person's identifier, the link from the Citation object will break.  So, you need to pick the system for assigning identifiers before you begin to create Person entities.
3. Create a Citation object.  In the Citation MODS Form, in the Author information in the field for "Qualified Name", enter the identifier that you used when you created the Person Entity for the author.  (The "Qualified Name" form field stores to MODS as <displayForm>.)
4. Now, when you view the Person Entity which you created in step 1, you will see the Citation object show up under "Recent Citations" for the person.
