Whatever happened to a. common sense and b. politeness? I'm starting to wonder...

Also, it might not be a good idea to loudly proclaim you're not from [INSERT STATE HERE] when you are, in fact, currently in that state.

If you are a jerk, word gets around. Just found out another craft show vendor invented a game based on someone who made me suffer at BazBiz.

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?
