COMPLETED List of "Bert" and "Bertie" authors FEEL FREE TO DELETE THREAD

[Debbie's Spurts (D.A.)]

The following author profiles need editing to match goodreads standards.

- Most just need a period after middle initial and editions combined as appropriate.
- If editing tries to merge with goodreads author, please cross-post just that author to http://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/1... so staff can do the merge
- in some cases, where last name looks odd, could be a glitch with some data imports where it is not an initial but a character like á, ü, ê, etc. being replaced with a space (For example, "Fredrik Kötten" and "Jane Pérez" may have accidentally imported as "Fredrik K Tten" and "Jane P Rez").

Author profiles to edit:

Bert C Bach ... Bert G Hickman

[Debbie's Spurts (D.A.)]

Bert H Fryer ... Bert M Weckhuysen

[Debbie's Spurts (D.A.)]

Bert N Uchino ... Bert W Colima

[Debbie's Spurts (D.A.)]

Bertie G Ramcharan ... Bert de Vries e.a.d.

[Debbie's Spurts (D.A.)]

Possibly these two insect/ants subject author profiles should merge:

Bert Hölldobler into the more complete Bert Hölldobler (first apparently has one space after Bert, second has apparently two. Once merged, I think the second space can go away)

[Debbie's Spurts (D.A.)]

Bert J. M. De Vries no spaces in initials ... Bert Wrout with Brett Quine

[Debbie's Spurts (D.A.)]

Bertie and Dos Winkel

Got them all, except #5--both appear to have one space, so I'm not sure how to get them to merge.

Maybe from more detailed profile edit menu, author field "copy all" or "select all"/"copy" depending on your device and try pasting over the less detailed profile's author field? Copying should pick up any strange spaces or null codes not readily visible.

[Debbie's Spurts (D.A.)]

Bertie J. Weddell, Bertie Josephson Weddell, and Weddell Bertie Josephson are all the same book and same author.

Book cover shows Bertie Josephson Weddell and none of the profiles had details other than author name so that's the profile I would keep.

That seemed to do the trick, although I have no idea why, hahah. (:

Also got #10.

That's all the current Bert and Bertie authors I found that looked strange.
