On the Summary bibliography page of Jim Baen (a pseudonym, http://www.isfdb.org/cgi-bin/ea.cgi?Jim%20Baen\), in 'Anthology Series' section links to series are displayed (no works, as all the anthologies by Jim Baen are variant titles).
Expected: Anthology series without titles should not be displayed.

The query checking which series should be displayed returns all-variant series, even though variants are not displayed without their parent. If parent is not in the series, the variant is not displayed in this series. Result: in some series no titles are displayed, just series name. Non-pseudonymous example:

As of 2008-05-19, is the 'Essay Series' section series name 'Forum (Galaxy)' is displayed without any titles (the only essay is a title variant and is displayed later, with the out-of-series works).
This is fixed by the Series Display changes checked in 22-MAY-2009. The code for displaying a series was modified to first check that the bibliography contains at least one title; if not, the series is not displayed.
Fixed in r2009-02.
