    Disambiguation notice
    Winston Churchill is at least three authors: the more famous Sir Winston Churchill who wrote history (in more than one way!), his grandson, and an American novelist. The elder Winston S. Churchill and the American met in 1901, and the British author agreed to sign his books "Winston S. Churchill."

    #1 is Sir Winston Churchill, 1874-1965, British Prime Minister, the author of the bulk of the LT titles. He wrote only one novel, Savrola, so any other book-length fiction is by the American author.

    #2 is Winston Churchill, 1871-1947, the American novelist [no middle initial], whose works include Richard Carvel, The Crisis, The Crossing, Coniston, A Far Country, and The Dwelling Place of Light.

    #3 is Winston Spencer Churchill II, born 1940, the grandson of the Prime Minister, author of His Father's Son and Memories and Adventures. The grandson is also the editor of many of the compilations of his grandfather.

    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 someone 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 someone 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.
