Bornik C (bornikc) | 6 comments I have a similar request for another author Saikat Mukhopadhyay

I want to merge with these three same author profiles with the first one.

lethe | 16359 comments It looks like there are 3 author profiles in the Latin alphabet, disambiguated by spaces: https://www.goodreads.com/author/simi...

Are all the books on those profiles by the same author? If so, I wonder why they were disambiguated.

Also, all the editions I found are in Bengali. If this author was never translated into a "western" language, his only profile should be the Bengali one: সৈকত মুখোপাধ্যায় (https://www.goodreads.com/author/show... )


Bornik C (bornikc) | 6 comments Above three links are for same Author.. Regarding translation there is one book I think.. Also searching with Bengali character name is difficult, as less number Keyboard available. So mergeing with first profile will be better. I will merge the books later

lethe | 16359 comments Merged the two linked English-language profiles and moved the remaining one to the default (one-space) profile: https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...

The Bengali profile may not be merged. (Authors should be added in the language/alphabet of the book and as shown on the book cover.) The book it contains should have the English name added as primary author: https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...

If the English-language profile is to be kept, all Bengali books need সৈকত মুখোপাধ্যায় added as secondary author.

(This English-language profile remains separate: https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...)
