I hope this is okay, it's my first disambig. :~) I tried resolving some of the issues below, but I don't seem to have acquired the skills yet. Help?

Michael^Carroll: SF, YA, and chicklit under the pseudonym Jaye Carroll. This one's the only one I'm sure is all right.

Michael^^Carroll: Illustrator, mostly space, dinosaurs and children's books, also written some books. (I'm not sure if all of these are correct. Help?) Sometimes he's listed as Michael W. Carroll on Goodreads, but I'm not sure how correct it is, as his homepage only uses Michael Carroll.

Michael^^^Carroll: Buddhist/self-help books. May be the same as Michael C. Carroll, according to a book on Amazon.

Michael^^^^Carroll: Various. This needs a bit of work, if someone's willing.

I am not seeing a match between these: LOC has them as separate.

Waterfall - You also need to add the disambig message to the author profiles, I have added the DISAMBIG message to this one if you want to see.

You will find the text for future:

Looks like 2 people - Michael W and Michael - LOC has Michael W as Michael W so for disambig I have changed his books to Micheal W.

Thanks Paula, I'll remember that! Thank you for your help also, I obviously need to add LOC to my list of tools. :~) That's Library of Congress, yes?

[Waterfall]

Oh, one last question - what do we do with the Goodreads author? Do we send him a message asking him to add the disambig message himself, since we can't do it?

[Paula]

Yes - I did not do that yet so please feel free and yep LOC = Library of Congress our arbitor also handy is worldcat

Done! I knew about WorldCat (which wasn't really helpful this time around), but not LOC... I need to learn not to skim things when I read. Thanks again! :~D

This is all I've done for 'David Mitchell' so far, but 1) David Mitchell has a number of books listed under his name that weren't written by him, so I'm happy for someone else to take over :)
