When linking persons in source to persons in FamilyTree; sometimes we come across individuals that are not yet in FamilyTree. These persons can be easily added on the Source Linker page. When the surname of person being added has a prefix (like "de", "van", etc); this prefix is DROPPED! I hope someone can please fix this BUG sooner rather than later.

I reported this about a year ago; but apparently that was done in the wrong forum.

Hopefully, someone can look into this issue; which is still present.
