Debbie's Spurts (D.A.) | 6325 comments The following "David D" 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
- if no books, skip as auto-sweep should remove
- 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:

David D Busch
David D Burns M.D. also get rid of the M.D.
David D Coleman
David D Hall

Emy (emypt) | 5037 comments Starting at #20 now.

By the way, can people please check for:
1. Other authors that need fixing for the books on the linked profile.
2. Combines needed after merging authors...

EDIT:

OK Up to 32. 1 in Staff merge thread. Carrying on in a moment but lots of extra authors to clear up atm.
