#2 The other Peter Simpson profile was a non-specified author. I've moved the books from the pastor profile, and two from the general profile, to a new Peter Simpson profile.

From the Librarian Manual: Authors with titles or degrees (such as Dr., Sir, Ph.D., Captain, Reverend, etc) should NOT be included in the author name (unless necessary to avoid confusion, or if part of a recognized pen name (e.g., Dr. Seuss)).

And just a little suggestion: when using / to separate multitple profiles, adding a space before and after / might help to better distinguish that there are multiple profiles.

Thank you Arenda.
