Regex to find author names all in uppercase?

Sounds simple, but I can't seem to find anything that works to find books where the authors names are all uppercase. Must allow for spaces and the usual punctuation (,-'). For use from the Binoculars search.
Thanks.

OK, that would explain it.

I have the Quality Check PI already, I'd forgotten it did that.

Thanks.
