Quite some books/editions that need the Pope Francis profile added and made primary and then be combined with the other editions.

Maybe someone wants to tackle that.

This is only the tip of the iceberg, as there are also profiles in other languages.
Also done for Paus Franciscus and Papa Francesc.
And cleaned up some misspelled profiles.

Still to do: Papa Francesco, Papa Francisco and Papst Franziskus


☕ Lachgas ♿  (lachgas) | 9386 comments Thanks a lot Arenda, great work!

The german ones seem to get annoying for combining, Herder seems not to list an original title very often - and either new WorldCat and I aren't friends yet or it's just coincidence that I don't find original titles there either.

Did a few of them, but still some left.

Since the Worldcat update, there seems to be less info. The original title for translated works is often missing.
(For German books, it happens very often that the original title is also missing from the DNB catalogue listing.)

sad, had hope it would be just me missing something. Really used Worldcat often for an original title.

☕ Lachgas ♿  (lachgas) | 9386 comments will go through the yet uncombined german ones trying to find the original title.

did the ones that I found and added covers to nearly all.


☕ Lachgas ♿  (lachgas) | 9386 comments there's also Papa Franjo - corrected the few ones there

would we go with Sergio Rubín or Pope Francis with that one? https://www.goodreads.com/work/editio...
(would need some correction either as Francesca is primary on some)

☕ Lachgas ♿  (lachgas) | 9386 comments still to be done Papież Franciszek and did Pápež František (corrected authors on that one but not combined)
