Disambiguation notice

While gin may be wonderful stuff, I don't think the Comparative Mythologies Professor wrote or edited anything to do with Gin Stills. There is also a religious writer and a modern historian under J. Campbell.
Those with books in The Masks of God series please mark which of the four you have: Primitive, Oriental, Occidental, or Creative. Thank You.
There are 6 volumes of the Eronos Yearbooks: Spirit and Nature, The Mysteries, Man and Time, Spiritual Disciplines, Man and Transformation, and The Mystic Visions. Please indicate which flavor you have. Thank You.

1. Joseph Campbell (CK above) wrote The Hero with a Thousand Faces. 2. Joseph Campbell (Ireland, several names, poet, b. 1879-07-15) wrote The Rush-light.

Author Disambiguation

How many authors?

Joseph Campbell is currently considered a "single author." If one or more works are by a distinct, homonymous authors, go ahead and split the author.

This entry includes…

Combine with…

No authors suggested.

What?

Q: What is this feature for/why is it necessary?

A: Because LibraryThing draws from so many different libraries, it can't enforce a single name for a given author. "Also known as" lets LibraryThing users combine author's names easily, so collections match up and everything runs smoothly.

Q: Can I combine with an author not suggested above?

A: Yes you can.

Q: I know an author is separate, but malign elves keep combining them. Can I take a name off the combination list?

A: Yes you can.

Look up! Everything in the "Combine with..." section now has a link to "never combine." Use this feature wisely. "Marc Twain" may be idiotic, but misspelling should still be combined. "Mark Twain" and "Edward Gibbon" should not.

Q: What authors have already been slated to "never combine" with this author?

A: No authors.

Q: I am the elf and I'm right!

A: Take it to the Combiners group.

Q: What if the disambiguation notice is wrong?

A: Go ahead and edit it.
