Deletion Work

[Violetta]

I think that the following profiles could be deleted:
http://www.goodreads.com/author/show/...

http://www.goodreads.com/author/show/...

http://www.goodreads.com/author/show/...

http://www.goodreads.com/author/show/...

http://www.goodreads.com/author/show/...

http://www.goodreads.com/author/show/...

as they have 0 books and are just extraneous misspellings and such.

We have been leaving profiles like that since there is supposed to be a script coming to delete empty author profiles.

I don't think there is a way to delete they will have to be merged into unknown

rivka - may be able to delete

The script is not high priority, and will probably wait until several current projects are complete. Empty author profiles aren't really a big deal, but they can be merged into their closest analog if a librarian cares to do so. (Or into Unknown, etc.)

Ok, since it's not really worth it to merge empty profiles, I'll leave them for computer-driven future deletion.
