Description Nick Clemens (kidclamp) 2017-05-11 15:43:49 UTC 
Since bug 8064 it is possible to merge multiple bibliographic records at once, it would be nice to be able to do the same thing with authority records.

+1
Comment 2 Ronald Wijlens 2020-02-20 11:33:34 UTC 
Agreed. We have many duplicate authority records dating back from the original conversion, with some duplicates appearing over 50 times. Manually merging them in pairs takes forever.
Comment 3 Rhonda Kuiper 2020-08-18 18:24:55 UTC 
This would be a wonderful time-saving tool for our catalogers.
Comment 4 Amber Bales 2022-09-28 20:32:35 UTC 
Agreed, this would be a great tool for catalogers.
Comment 5 Katrin Fischer 2023-09-15 20:50:24 UTC 
Still valid.
