Disambiguation Notice

There are at least two separate authors in the list above. David Carroll (b. 1947) is the author of The Dictionary of Foreign Terms in the English Language. He is not the David Carroll (b. 1973) of many of the other books listed on this author page. Given the divergent topics and genres in the list, one suspect there are more. In the future, LibraryThing will be able to spllit authors with identical names. In the meantime, if anyone can identify authors middle initials that will help sort it out.

Combine with…

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 some infernal idiot keeps 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 infernal idiot and I'm right!

A: Take it to the Combiners group.

Q: What if this author is really two authors?

A: We're working on a solution, but if you want you can post a brief disambiguation notice in the Common Knowledge section.
