PattyMacDotComma | 1172 comments I stumbled across some misspelled author entries and found lots of generic book covers (with the wrong author) but they link to the right book on Harlan Coben's page. A few have been fixed, but it's been suggested I raise it here. I'll list what I've found (so far).

Real author
Harlan Coben

Errors:
Harlan Coben. Run Away

Harlon Coben

Harlen Coben

Harlan Coban
This 'author' has books by newly deleted entry Harlan Cobenn. That was a wrong author someone fixed, I think.

I understand there are more. Good luck if you take it on!
Thanks

Hi Dobby - the initial request was handled but further notes were added. Scott wrote in Comment #5:

"I looked at them yesterday and merged a couple but there are records that have more adds than I can handle, so you can make a thread in the Superlibrarian section for them if you like."

So I made a thread. Sorry if I'm in the wrong place still!

Scott | 8635 comments The books need to be merged by a superlibrarian, not the profiles.

Dobby (dobby0390) | 7858 comments Thanks for that clarification. This is the right place to merge duplicates that have been shelved 5 or more times.

If there are records that need to be merged, please provide a link to each duplicate. You can make one post per request, or you can list more than one. If you list multiple duplicates in the same post, please number them to help us track them more easily.

Arenda | 26447 comments The author profiles were merged by GR Support (as I said I requested in the other thread). So the links to those misspelled author profiles now no longer work. I had already bookmarked the duplicate books and will work on them now the profiles have been merged.


PattyMacDotComma | 1172 comments Thanks to you all for the updates. I apologise for being in the wrong place or asking the wrong questions. 😊
