30 broken author names #18

Closed tfmorris closed 4 years ago

This search returns 36 results: https://openlibrary.org/search/authors?q=kru most of which are corrupted names where composed diacritics got replaced by spaces, e.g. "Gerd Kru ssmann" from the MARC record "Krüssmann, Gerd"

Most of the replacements should be obvious, but the MARC records can be consulted for confirmation.

Cleared up most of the obvious in a few minutes.
