You can modify (enhance) an ISNI record in the ISNI web portal by supplying additional information to the record: name variants, dates, language, gender, or nationality, related people or organizations, titles of works created by the person, class and role, and external information from outside sources. Editing a record may involve various actions, from simply adding a note to linking to records for related recordsnames. By enhancing a record and adding more fields to a record, its status may be upgraded and changed from "provisional" to "assigned."
...
A name and your local Identifier (i.e., PCC) are mandatory fields. If PCC is not already a source on the record (as in the example above), it must be added before any further editing of the record. (An exception is when you add a General Note on the External Information and Notes tab to send information to the ISNI quality team about errors, records to merge or split, etc.)
Click the + beside "Add Identifier". "PCC" is automatically added as "identifier type"; the "identifier" field can be left blank.
There must be a Name field that corresponds to each source identifier. In other words, when you add the PCC identifier to a record, you also have to add a Name field, even if it duplicates an existing name from another source. To add a form of name click the + beside "Add Name." Add your preferred form of name in the boxes.
To add a variant name click the + beside "Add Name variant." Add your variant form of name in the boxes. (N.B. As explained on the Principles page, ISNI is a system of identifiers, not an authority file. It is not necessary to record a variant for each permutation of a name.)
Greyed out fields show data from other sources. You cannot edit or remove these fields. Contact the ISNI Quality Team if you spot an error you would like to see corrected by adding a General Note on the External Information and Notes tab.
Click "Save changes" to add your source or select another tab to add more data.

Under the Associations tab, click the “+” signs of the fields you want to add. Enter the related name in the field for Related person or Related organisation and select the Relation–is related and Relationship and Relation type. If the related name is in ISNI, you can establish a system link in ISNI. An ISNI algorithm may suggest the related name(s) in a popup window.
- Click "Link Relation" to trigger the name search. One or more hits are presented in a popup window.
- Click "Link!" to select the related person or organisation. The PPN of the selected name is added to the ISNI record.
...
- Enter the related name in the field Related person or Related organisation and select the Relationship Relation–is related together with the Relation Relationship type.
- Enter the PPN of the Related person or Related organisation in the field PPN. The example above shows the PPN of the La Trobe University, with which Gustave Amigó Jansen is affiliated.
- Note: To see the PPN for a particular record, click on "marc21" in the band above the record and copy the number from the 000 field. On records without an assigned ISNI, it is also the number that appears in the labels display as "Record no."
...
When you have made your additions, click "Save changes."
Clicking "Cancel" will send you back to the labels display of the record.
