+**DEPRECATED**: The `EntityRef` type and `parseEntityName` function are now
+deprecated, and will soon be removed. This is part of a larger movement toward
+fixing the poorly named `EntityName` type which should instead have been named
+`EntityRef`. Please remove any usage of these as soon as possible.
