I must agree with Sebastian.  I strongly feel that the new name is entirely 
misleading and uninformative.  While I will agree that 'names and dates' now 
does the chapter a disservice by not recognising the amount of material for 
describing persons/places/organisations, I believe that "Historical Data" is 
really misleading.

Are you telling me that my tables of historical information are not historical 
data? Or that my transcriptions aren't historical (or aren't data)?  Just seems 
misleading and prone to creating confusion to me.
