I think they should have a separate link for each as they are 2 people
I think the same thing, it just makes sense. I'm going to go ahead and change it and if a super thinks otherwise I can always change it back.
Yes, I'd split them into two authors and explain on each author's profile bio that they write together as "Kane & Abel".
Cait, can you take a look at it? I'll post a link in a second but I tried to change it and was having a problem with 'Kane' because there is already an author in the system. I tried leaving a space or two in front and behind, didn't work. I didn't want to merge with the other Kane either. I haven't been editing as much in the past few weeks and I don't want to mess anything up. I'll go get the link....
Here it is: http://www.goodreads.com/author/show/...
I'd appreciate it Cait - I don't want to mess anything up. Thanks for your help too!
It's not possible to disambig a single-name author, no! But it looks to me like probably all of the books currently listed under "Kane" or "Abel" shouldn't be there -- that they're actually authored by people with "Kane" or "Abel" as part of their full name and need to have their records corrected anyway....
Okay, I'm going to go in and see what I can do there. I'll leave Kane & Abel as it is since I don't know what to do there. The books you've noticed I should be able to fix up though.
On the book covers they're shown as above but here on GR, should it be Kane, Abel with a seperate link for each?
I'm thinking it should be the second way but wanted to check. Thanks.
