Pretty sure that Jonathan Allen, the UK-based Goodreads author who writes and illustrates children's books, is not the same as the Washington journalist Jonathan Allen who wrote HRC: State Secrets and the Rebirth of Hillary Clinton. And yet, ALL editions of HRC seem to have the Goodreads author as the author. Is there a way to disambiguate this besides going through and changing each edition manually? I tried using the disambiguation button but it won't let me do it for a Goodreads author.

I think individually is the only way to go. The Jonathan Allen profiles are kind of a mess, but I notice there is no 3 space one at the moment (there is a 2, 4 & 5) if you wanted to put the journalist there.Actually, started working on this myself. I've sorted the Hillary Clinton author, but the 2 space one still holds several authors I think.
