    Author Disambiguation

    How many authors?

    John Gardner 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…

    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 well-meaning but deplorably uninformed person 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 said person 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.
