I fixed the name, but B&N has name as Édouard Mallet? And the original had the a, so I made it Édouard Mallet. Where did you get your spelling?

And I did not delete the ISBN 10 fields - as a new librarian I prefer leaving that for someone else, until I know more about policy and why.

The a is correct (my typo).

I'll make a post in different thread to kill isbn10.

A 294-XXXXXXXXXX "ISBN-13" number is a B&N ID that does not have a matching "ISBN-10." When B&N was importing directly to Goodreads, all of the books with the 294 number were imported with dummy ISBN-10s.

If the ISBN-10 is left, the link to B&N does not work, so we blank them out and leave only the 294 number.

Debbie's Spurts (D.A.) | 6325 comments David H McElreath needs a period after middle initial H.

Likely the same author, judging by books on the profiles, as David McElreath so the profiles may need merging.

Not sure if that merge means initial H stays or gets removed.


Debbie's Spurts (D.A.) | 6325 comments Also need period after middle initial:

Joseph A Schafer
Michael E Buerger
Richard W Myers

774 Need a super-librarian, I transfered this request to the correct thread

Spencer C Olin
M. C Spencer
D C Spencer
D. C. Spencer
E C Spencer
Dale C Spencer
Spencer C Cocanour


Debbie's Spurts (D.A.) | 6325 comments David G Disler and David G. Disler MD need to merge into non-goodreads author David G. Disler.

Debbie's Spurts (D.A.) | 6325 comments Judging by book titles and book covers, I think all the below authors are actually "Richard A. Setterson, Jr. And some editions to be combined:

Richard A. Settersten Jr.
Richard A. Settersten Jr. (has two spaces before Jr)
Richard A. Settersten Jr
Richard A. Settersten (book cover shows the Jr)
Richard A Settersten Jr
Richard A Settersten
R A Settersten
R. a. Jr. Settersten
Richard Settersten

(Co-author Timothy J Owens needs period after J, —actually on Owens page lots of coauthors need period after middle initials)]


Debbie's Spurts (D.A.) | 6325 comments Richard abd Clara Winston abd probably was "and" so needs two authors


Debbie's Spurts (D.A.) | 6325 comments And I think these are also the same author:

Richard Buel
Richard Buel Jr
Richard Buel Jr.
Richard Jr Buel
