Problem: Docs suggest name (creator) access points are automatically added to the list in the Access points information area of an archival description when they actually need to be manually selected + added for the name to appear in the list

User reports confusion around help topic that describes how name (creator) access points are created and automatically added to the list in the 'Access points information' for a description. Example provided from linked topic:

First, name (creator) access points are automatically derived from ISAAR authority records in AtoM. Whenever a creator is added to an archival description, the creator name is also added as a name access point in the Access points information area of the archival description. Doing so conforms to the recommendations found in ISAAR-CPF 1.5 and 1.6, and 1.8....

From the above statement, user assumes the name (creator) access points are automatically added to the access points list in the archival description as in previous versions when in reality they still need to be manually selected from the drop-down menu and manually added in order to appear in the list.
