Bug Description

If you look at http://openlibrary.org/authors/OL308518A/Anthony_R._Walker, you'll see that the last 8 titles are listed with 0 editions, and have no covers showing up even though if you click through, there are Works at the edition level.

Why?

Same situation if you look at the following http://openlibrary.org/authors/OL155003A/Hermann_Burmeister except it is last three; they do not show Read icon but when click to the record it is available

The main thing I'm concerned with is that a Work can even exist without an Edition.

Reindexing is 99% complete. The work pages are now showing the correct counts. Click on any work from http://openlibrary.org/authors/OL308518A/Anthony_R._Walker to test it.

Solr index needs to be updated to show the updated counts in the author page. I'm planning to do that today.

I have finished updating the postgres index tables. Still need to
update solr.

Sorry, this slipped out of my mind. Just handing over the script to make solr index faster to Edward.

Edward, we need to reindex solr to correct the edition_counts for many works. It will be nice if you can switch to using covers instead of cover_edition.

Edward, if you can provide the file with mapping from marc subjects to work keys, I can generate a dump for solr import.

6/13, Anand said to Edward:
"I created mapping from edition_key to source_records. If you can give
me edition_key to subject mapping, I can take care of merging that."

Anand, how do I get a list of works for this author /authors/OL6712855A?

My mistake, the right answer is:
ol.query({'type':'/type/work', 'authors': {'author': {'key': '/authors/OL6712855A'}}})
