Sophocles in different languages

Michelle Hi everyone!

While searching for my german edition of Oedipus Rex earlier today, I found a second author profile for Sophocles written with a "k" (as his name is written in german, dutch and a few other languages). There are a total of 27 books on the profile that need to be combined with the main editions of the books.

Here is his official profile: Sophocles
And the second profile: Sophokles

Arenda For authors whose name are written different in various languages, policy is to have the most common English version (= Sophocles) as primary author, and the author according to the cover as secondary author.
I've done so for the editions that were on the Sophokles profile.

I've also combined quite some editions (and separated 2-in-1 and 3-in-1 editions that were incorrectly combined with the single book).
If there is still a specific edition you think should be combined, please link to both editions.

I've also added a link to Sophocles in the Sophokles profile, and corrected all the links to author names in other languages in the Sophocles profile (as they were all no longer valid links).

Oh gosh. Had they all been merged at some point? :(

Must have been.
