So looks like some authors don't have an authorId if I'm reading this right. What can I do?

Agreed, author URL is missing author id. Basically, the site is broken.

On a more active site, I suggest contacting them to report it and wait for a fix.

But the most recent chapters list also has 'chapters' in 2019 that are empty, both in title and content. And the top ten includes 2020--that's not a very active site.

Talking about broken sites, starslibrary.net is still noted as supported, but, as far as I know, the owners have stopped paying for the server and it's been around a year since it's been down.

There was talk about them trying to put it back online, but it had been largely unused for years before that, so I wouldn't hold my breath for it.

There are a number (9?) of the 'supported' sites that are off line, broken, DNS parked, etc.

Historically, it's not uncommon for them to come back again later. Or only to be broken part time. I've needed to restore sites after removing them enough times over the years that I tend to keep them quite a while--typically 2-3 years--before removing them.

Sites that are officially closed or moved are removed much quicker.
