On this split https://www.librarything.com/author/andrewspeter-14 this series https://www.librarything.com/nseries/123938/Classic-Country-Inns-of-America is showing but none of the works belong to this split author.

I checked out a few other split authors, and it looks like series associated with one author in the split will appear on the pages of all authors in that split. Which...is a bit problematic, since it is inaccurate information.

>2 Collectorator: Those are the ones from the series but they're not applicable to the author split I referenced.

>5 Collectorator: Author names appear on series pages.

Split authors are generally problematic, with data often referring to unsplit page and failing to recognize/read from the individual split. For one, they all appear with gender and dead or alive stats 'unknown', even if all the splits have the info. This seems like reverse. It can't parse what split to assign the series to, so it assigns to all

Apparently they are working on it. https://www.librarything.com/topic/321247#7185302

Okay, I think this is fixed, can anyone verify? It looks okay to me, so far. https://www.librarything.com/topic/327118#7396185
