Another round: merged duplicates that turned up since, ordered omnibuses, assigned to F&tGM series etc. Remains to be decided:

1. Do Tor Doubles count as an omnibus? (Haven't found a general rule on this; I'd prefer having it hidden as just another publication for the novella, but the problem is that they don't usually list editor and I certainly don't want to see more "unknowns".)

The doubles are mentioned on Help:Screen:EditPub with the relevant items being

• Set the author to N/A - hardly anyone seems to do this and they list both authors.
• Enter the page count as ###+###
• Use a publication type of dos - people forget this and use pb - Google says not a single record in ISFDB uses a type of "dos"...
• The title type is normally OMNIBUS but that does not seem to be stated in the help. Marc Kupper (talk) 04:29, 8 Mar 2007 (CST)

1. Should the comic book version of Gonna Roll the Bones be listed as a separate "novel"?
2. Merge Destiny Times Three novel and novella, or not? Clute doesn't use "ext" in describing it, Pringle quote at http://www.lankhmar.demon.co.uk/dest.htm explicitly denies it was changed in any way, but http://www.lankhmar.demon.co.uk/fritz.htm suggests the book might have reinstated some magazine cuts (which process Clute should mention as well, but might not have known). Also note that DSTTTHR1945 appears nonsensical: all sources agree that 1945 was the date of serialization and the first book publication came in 1957.
