Daniel Mclaury | 4 comments That ought to say Teichmüller, not Teichma1/4ller. The book also appears to be listed separately without the umlaut.

Ellie Loredan (ellieloredan) | 113 comments I changed it to ü. Could you further explain what you mean with the separate listing? I could only find this edition under the author name.

Dee (austhokie) | 897 comments the separate listings likely came from an input because of issues with text based rendering and diacretics - there are specific codes that can be used to get them to show

Debbie's Spurts (D.A.) | 6325 comments Do you mean some of these at http://www.goodreads.com/search?utf8=... ?

(Older data feeds sometimes put a space in place of unrecognized umlauts and diacritics).

Daniel Mclaury | 4 comments Thanks!

Ellie -- Looks like the author names need to be merged too:

Debbie -- Not what I was referring to, but looks like they should all say Teichmüller.

Ellie Loredan (ellieloredan) | 113 comments Ah, that was the problem. So I combined the author, the books and added the ü.

Now I'm going to hunt down all the poor Teichmüllers missing the umlaut (which is easy work for someone who has the umlauts on the keyboard ^^).

Ellie Loredan (ellieloredan) | 113 comments Ok, someone already got most of the ones that were part of the link below and I took care of all Teichmllers and Teichmullers. Now they should all be displaying the right name.
