Bug Collectors Question:

I've seen a couple of this today (at least), and I'm NOT YET combining, so others might see it too -- one LT work (here, it happens to be http://www.librarything.com/work/8038308 ) appears on the Editions page of another LT work ( http://www.librarything.com/work/382468/editions ), but doesn't show up when I move from the Editions Page to Combine/Separate Potentials. I've also recalculated title/author and cover, to no apparent effect.

I've also posted this to Combiners! ( http://www.librarything.com/topic/115340#2696482 ), or maybe somebody can point me to an existing, apropos discussion thread. Any comment, thought, suggestion or insight is appreciated. Thank you!

ETA: Combiners! thread link

I've seen several of these recently, and it is very frustrating.

Also reported at http://www.librarything.com/topic/115868#2684660 ; if we fix either one, we take care of two Bug Report threads. Thanks!

Having the same problem.

When I couldn't combine from the editions page, I went to the Author page, and my books are not even showing up under the author, on either the main page or the combine/separate page.

I had one book with multiple mix-ups that I was separating from the editions page. After I navigated back and forth a few times, they started turning up on the author combine/separate page, but I'm still not sure if I got them all.

I'm also having this problem on a lot of works, and am ending up having to do URL combinations instead.

I'm noticing this especially when the authors are different.

Thanks for your acknowledgment, Tim. And for frying bigger fish (I think)?
