Two pages for the same author

[[ ჯ ]]

The two authors are the same - one page uses his Chinese name ("余华"), another uses his English name ("Yu Hua")". Books associated with both pages list both English and Chinese versions of the books. I am not sure whether I should combine the two pages together into one ("Yu Hua").

Absolutely not, see the Librarian Manual: https://www.goodreads.com/help/show/4...

This means that the English name should be primary on all editions, and the author name in other spellings/languages secondary on the editions with that name on the cover.

How can I add a "primary author name" to all the editions on the page quickly without doing it one by one?

It can only be done one by one.

Joshua, if you wish, you can move this to the 'Looking for a Project' folder, so librarians interested in helping out can assist you.

All books/editions now have Yu Hua as primary author.
