Help separating incorrect merged author record for David Andre

My “David Andre” author record is incorrectly merged with another author cluster (including Felipe Fernandez-Armesto / editors / Koza-related entries).

All of my books are correctly assigned but are attached to this merged author record.

Could someone please separate David Andre into its own author identity?

Maybe someone already helped but https://www.librarything.com/a/7186229/David-Andre seems separated for me.

Can you clarify what you are seeing exactly?

Closing, as certainly not a bug. Combination issue, and seems to be already taken care of.

I separate 3 Homonym + 1 David Andre (4) = André David

I'll 'add CK data, links, sources and pictures and disambiguation CK as soon as possible

Ir would help, of course, if your books had been correctly entered as Andre, David.

Oupsss !!!

New combined :

https://www.librarything.com/a/7186229/Andr%C3%A9-David
==> for André DAVID (with accent on "e" as first name)

https://www.librarything.com/a/2069934/David-Andre
==>for David ANDRE ((without accent on "e" as name)
nb : note here "David Andre (1) // Les œuvres ont été combinées en David André." (cf post 5 : bad orthograph and authority name form)

https://www.librarything.com/a/11646276/Andr%C3%A9-David
==>for David ANDRé (with accent on "e" as name)

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

To have a good result, corrrect Data and Metadata are necessary (see post 5 again) :
Name is'nt 1st Name and accent is'nt a option...
