CK entries not always combined

Not a huge deal, I think, but for example the occupation "Animator" in CK can lead to two different lists:

http://www.librarything.com/commonknowledge/search.php?q=Animator+&f=17&...

There's a space at the end of the second one. Very old bug: http://www.librarything.com/topic/99406

Is there by any chance a space included in one version and not the other? I discovered when checking some travel series with the new search that I had occasionally set up a second series because when I copied and pasted a series title I accidentally included an extra space. The extra space differentiated it onto a new series page.

Thank you both. That fixed it. Still a bug of some kind in my opinion though.

I'd say this is only that other bug, the one that causes the entry to get the space on the end. My reasoning is that if you put in a trailing space on the CK search page, it will chop it off. So the only way you wind up getting to these links are from entries entered in the other way. Once Tim fixes that bug, we can hopefully get him to clean up the data so those links don't even show up anymore. After that, the only way you could get it is if you were to manually create the link (which is beyond the scope of what LT would be expected to handle). As such, I'm closing this. If you disagree, please do feel free to reopen.

Sure, if it's (part of) a known bug... No sense in keeping all sorts of duplicate reports.

FYI, I added a message to the other bug to point out what your report does - the two entries cause two different sets of results. Scanning through the other posts, I don't think that had been mentioned. It's a pretty serious side-effect to me.

Just replying so that this floats to the top of my list, along with the accompanying bug posted in >2 r.orrison:.
