G.G. | 237 comments Might I suggest that this author, listed as both:
Fumiko Kaneko
and as Kaneko Fumiko
be merged, please? This Japanese author's surname is Kaneko, given name is Fumiko.
Thank you!

Many thanks!

Thank you again!

G.G. | 237 comments I've just noticed another author who needs merging:
Rohan Koda and Kōda Rohan. Kōda is the family name, Rohan the given name.
This author: Ihara Saikaku has only one entry, but Ihara is the family name, Saikaku the given name.
Many thanks!

Those are different authors and should not be merged.

Moved the book from the second profile.
