Hoi, When an item is a member of a list, the item is likely to be written differently dependent on the language and script. When there is a "free-text" referral, it loses its flexibility ... eg 靈高史達 is a member of the Beatles <grin> obviously </grin> Thanks, Gerard

Cases like this - where the pseudonym is a (collective) entity in itself - would seem to be a good case for "member of" relationships - Henri Cartan [is a member of] Nicholas Bourbaki as John Lennon [is a member of] the Beatles.
A free-text pseudonym for each of the Bourbaki authors would mean there's no easy way to connect them to that other element in future.

Is it intentional to restrict the definition to personal pseudonyms? That doesn't cover all uses of them For example, there are house pseudonyms used by publishing houses which are associated with a series and the publishing house contracts with writers to write effectively anonymously (although it's often known who they are).
Another example of a relatively well known collective pseudonym is http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nicolas_Bourbaki There's a whole category of them here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Collective_pseudonyms
