It might be, if it *did* result in data loss. The actual case is that it might result in data loss, for some combinations of authority types linked to some bib fields. I think the cause of the warning is merging something like a personal name to a topical term, which would work fine for 600 to 650 but wouldn't be able to convert a 100 or 700 or 800 because there aren't any x50 equivalents. Not sure, since I've never needed to do that merge. But I frequently need to merge 150 to 100, since the Library of Congress is in the middle of a very long conversion of (Fictitious character) headings. Removing the ability to do that despite a warning which doesn't apply to that case would be a huge frustration. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
