I'm not sure if its a bug, or something strange about somebody's catalog, but the Author search page for "Living New Testament" (http://www.librarything.com/search.php?term=New+Living+Translation&searchtype=authorname&combinewith=translationnewliving) is presenting me with about 120 links to:
folks Ok, let's not be arrogant but rather spend a little time contemplating on my Real Names - and this will for sure be a literary excursion as I just had Vegetarian Pizza at one of the finest Places of the World (for eg Vegetarian Pizza: Kosta's in Em

I've found a similar problem when you search for authors named How. http://www.librarything.com/search.php?search=how&searchtype=authorname&...

Reindexing authors ab nihilo. We'll see if that fixes it.

It didn't. This is still happening. See http://www.librarything.com/topic/141088

I've been wondering about those results too. Mostly just a surprising nuisance, but they come up with some regularity for me, and get in the way, so it would be nice to see those results go away and never come back.

Authors being reindexed again, this time from scratch. Author search is broken until that finishes.
15timspalding
Okay, the author search has been regenerated and now there's… nothing.
I'm not sure if that's correct here or not. Perhaps so.
I'm making as fixed and looking at the other thing.

Okay, it's fixed. I'm uncertain whether the author index was good or not. There seems to be a lot fewer "wild" results. That may be a good thing, or it may be evidence that not everything was indexed.

Does it count as fixed if you majorly broke something else? :-p The "folks Ok" results are gone from author searches, but so are all other author names, except for CK-based ones. A new bug was opened just about the missing author names, which is why I'm not reopening this one.

Well THIS bug was fixed! ;)
Okay, looking at the problem again.
