Description:
Hi!

examples for PND:174112335 and VIAF:61550617 (links to LT_en:

PND / GND:
http://www.librarything.com/commonknowledge/search.php?f=13&exact=0&q=%3A174112335#
VIAF:
http://www.librarything.com/commonknowledge/search.php?f=13&exact=0&q=%3A61550617#

explanations:
a) the keywords "VIAF:PND" and "VIAF" should not be used
b) instead of "exact=1" one should use "exact=0" - this means no exact / literal search
c) the number is preceded by "%3A" the url--encoding for a semicolon

testurl (LT in E-o): http://epo.librarything.com/author/penningtonmbasil&norefer=1&all=1 for http://epo.librarything.com/author/penningtonmbasil&norefer=1&all=1 a Trappist monk

test-text (at the top of the page):
(yid)VIAF:61550617 (viafMain)
(lat)BAV:ADV10009471
::ZCZC::Main.VIAF:61550617::Additional.VIAF:218052790:207395328:199659543::CZCZ::
(ger)::ZCZC::Main.Person.GND:137161069::Additional.Person.GND:174112335::nl-nl::Additional.Name.GND:188493018:188040021::CZCZ::

Note: These values are generated manually; the keywoards VIAF and GND are preceeded by an English explanatory text; the last line lists multiple VIAF's - only the first will be detected withthe actual version

Best regards Reinhardt

Note the "#" anchr should be part of the link; MeediaZilla does not render it properly:

I changed the priorities.

old search: http://epo.librarything.com/commonknowledge/search.php?f=13&exact=1&q=VIAF%3APND%3A122865251# - no hits

new search: http://epo.librarything.com/commonknowledge/search.php?f=13&exact=0&q=%3A122865251# - one hit

for [[David Foster Wallace]] http://www.librarything.com/author/wallacedavidfoster&norefer=1&all=1 ::url.author.LibraryThing:wallacedavidfoster::

There have been complains and questions about the excessive use of authority control records in the "Disambiguation notice" field which brakes the page layout at the top of author pages.

c) the number is preceded by "%3A" the url--encoding for a semicolon

%3A != semicolon

A clarification is needed. Please explain what you want exactly

+ %3A is the COLON
+ SEMICOLON is %3B

What do need ?

I guess, you meant %3A the url-encoding for a colon.

fixed in v1.18
