says:

Ingrid Gottfridsson
Author of The Mitten Book
Includes the names: Inger Gottfridson, Inger Gottfridsson

but inside the physical book, there's a photo of both Inger Gottfridsson and Ingrid Gottfridsson, so Inger Gottfridson should have her own page. The cover on https://www.librarything.com/work/4611209 lists Inger first.

Thanks in advance!

I have separated Inger from Ingrid, the authors were combined. Hope it looks better now!

Ah, that was super quick. (Plaid speed?) Much better. Thanks!

(I came across this and two others by comparing a list from https://www.librarything.com/stats/bnielsen/nationality (unfold all the nationalities and just copy/paste) with the list of primary authors from my TSV export file. The author names in the nationality list is like "James Vance Marshall" and the other list is like "Donald Gordon", because Donald is a pseudonym for James in this case.
After removing the pseudonymes the remaining stuff is interesting. The idea is hereby free to use for anyone in need of a timesink.)
