Better entity search for Open Library authors #111

Closed RayBB closed 1 year ago

RayBB commented 1 year ago

Hello,

When I go to a page like https://openlibrary.org/authors/OL41855A/Bernard_Ireland, the search automatically starts looking for Bernard Ireland | Open Library. I assume it's parsing the page title or some other piece of data.

However, if I got to, for example, a random LinkedIn profile, which has a similar title First Last | LinkedIn the search correctly just looks for First Last.

Any way to fix this?

yes! you can add a website title extract pattern. Or you can ask me to do it. Now the extension should be able to properly extract the label from the title.
