Brwaking list into smaller messages so multiple librarians can handle. These all need to be changed to goodreads database standards, mostly period after middle initial (but also some odd suffix use, spaces in place of umlauts/diacritics, ALLCAPs, authors run together...):

#21 - done (I think, please check? :) )
(but I'm not sure what to do for this one: http://www.goodreads.com/author/show/.... Was it just a dot missing, or did I have to separate them?) Because I think it's really one person's name (not the afterwards).
#19 - done (I think)
For Charles P. Rin though... I don't find any books he's done, maybe you should ask for him to be removed? I don't know if that's possible?

@pony. #21 works for me. Thanks!

If an author has no books and no fans/followers, system will eventually auto-remove.

For the one that had the afterwards in it, I removed the afterword--probably the person who added the book didn't list the person who wrote the afterword separately and just put them in one profile. (:
