I can't seem to make the author name change to the one with accents. Does it take a Super or is it just me?

Elizabeth (Alaska) I think staff will need to merge the profiles (or add a space, one or the other).

Arenda | 26447 comments Accented letters alone are not enough to completely disambiguate authors.* Currently both profiles have 1 space, so when they are indeed 2 different authors, GR Support has to add an extra space to one of the profiles.

* It is possible that both profiles exist, as is proven by these profiles, but it is not possible to choose which author a book should be attributed to.
