Javier (palchetti) | 30733 comments These are personalized notebooks, I think there's at least 30 combinations for each possible name in France 😵

Camilla | 340 comments Oh dear... These have to be NABbed one at a time, since the author (Collective, Collectif) contains also legit books.
I'm currently working on NABbing "Notizbuch" and "sketchbook", but I've saved this page for the future.

Alison | 961 comments Because the profiles have valid books and followers, I'll flip around the suggestion I would have if there were no followers.

Rather than going book-by-book, might it be better to use the disambiguate tool to move the invalid books to a brand new profile and then NAB that profile?

Arenda | 26447 comments I made a small start on this project.

I had already tried to access the disambiguation page for the author page Collectif, but that page didn't load.

Renske | 12231 comments The disambiguation page was working for me, so I did a few rounds.

Arenda | 26447 comments The search in #1 is 'temporarily unavailable' (and also has been when I looked at it a couple of other times before).
When I first looked at it, there seemed to be three different authors: Collectif, Collective and Various. According to the filter on the combine pages of these three authors, all these notebooks are now marked as NAB and no longer on these profiles.
