I do not know if a wikipedia entry is relevant

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jon_T._Benn

but I do not know him without the "T."
(but maybe he was without in the English credits
of WAY and CLONES, I didn't check),
nor do I really understand the alias "Chun Ban",
which I find rather absurd seemingly being
"Chinesized" here what does not have to be
"Chinesized" ... or "Cantonesed" ...

If anybody simply wants to merge this to "Jon T. Benn" ...
or at least throw "Chun Ban" away!

Or Lee Fay Erh,
from Germany

Sorry I do not understand. Merge with ?

Chun Ban is the Cantonese pronunciation of the name, it was requested by one of the first editors of the database 15 years ago.

The alias needs to stay. I discussed this in my latest Editor's forum post.
