According to the (stale) search index, there are 212 of them, so I think it's time to get Anand involved to reverse the merge unless someone has a lot of energy. We should probably add some type of "Undo merge" tool to the ToDo list. The id of the merge is 47605678 from 2013-07-12 by /people/bboretsky. The other author merge is the same merge has a completely different name http://openlibrary.org/authors/OL581593A?v=1 and the merge was the first and only action by this account, so seems like malicious behavior to me.
