This part sounded familiar. It can happen when the combined editions don't all have the same primary author. That happens to be true in your case. If you make sure the first listed name is the same, the glitch on the author page should resolve itself.

I meant the Italian editions that I merged. Those two had the same primary author when I merged them. The Italian edition that have the error message, doesn't appear on the author page while it has the same primary author, that's why I'm confused.

Oh ok, then I fully agree with lethe that the issue should probably resolve itself in time, without further edits.
I couldn’t have deleted this edition since I’m not a Super Librarian, and I’ve been merging a lot of duplicates since I’m a librarian, and I never had this issue before. And if we check my Librarian log, it never says that this edition was deleted, so I’m really confused.
Are there other librarians who had a similar issue while merging books?
Thank you!
