I just noticed that however the manubot catalog page parses/displays surnames incorrectly (and with a anglo-centric bias).

I have two surnames: 'Fellows Yates' (it is not hyphenated), but only Yates is displayed. While this is unusual e.g. in the UK, another co-author from Spain is displayed as only Valtueña whereas the actual surname is 'Andrades Valtueña' - this is problematic as dual surnames is extremely common in both Spain and also hispanic cultures in S. America (and elsewhere). This is also relatively important for specifity during indexing due to realtively common single components of surnames.

It would be great if this would be corrected, e.g. only the first 'word' being listed as a first name (whereby single first names is less common than multiple surnames), any initials in names of the metadata.yaml file being assumed as middle names, and everything after as surname, or more ideally (although harder), the metadata.yaml to be updated to have explicit forename, middle name and surname fields.
