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. Become a member to do this. Is this you?If you're an author, consider becoming an official LibraryThing Author. |
