Also, I dont see a duplicate check for author names. Is this available?
Try the Find Duplicates PI
Normally duplicate Authors are spelling variations BUT, sometimes they are not the same Author. CHECK the actual book and/or a data site like Fantastic Fiction.

In the Tag browser: right-click: Manage Authors
Yyou can make corrections there
But FIRST: Normalize what you have: (case, Initials) using first the check with Check Author toosl in the QC PI, then the appropriate Fix in the QC PI
(all my initials have dots and spaces YMMV)
