“Authors” entry anomaly: Not recognizing the letter i (so I substituted the letter L (lower case) to “force” the program to show/post the listing.
Neither upper or lower case i works.
As a Test: Entries that show up in Authors (Works):
Naval Lntelligence, Office of - TEST 4: CAPITAL L (Works)
Naval lntelligence, Office of - TEST 2: lower case L (Works)
Naval 1ntelligence, Office of - TEST 5: Numeral 1 (Works)

I have four books with different titles, all are classified “COMBAT NARRATIVES” but all were “authored” by the Naval Intelligence, Office of.

This author has been entered many different ways, some of which have been combined with United States Navy. In fact, most of the combinations there need to be separated, as 'Office of Naval Intelligence' or 'Bureau of Naval Personnel' is not necessarily US.

When I look at https://www.librarything.com/work/6376608/book/206023563, the 'author' is working as expected - taking you to the United States Navy author page, because the author pages have been combined. This may be wrong, but is not a bug. The work is not on that page, because the work author is listed as Charles Moran. The work shows on that author page.
