[Evergreen-catalogers] Merging authority records, master and target

[Janet Schrader]

Hi Elaine,

Thanks, I decided to try that on our training server and keep getting the
page is unresponsive.  I tried our training xul client and got the script
on this page has stopped working.  I'll see if Jason can explain what
happened as there aren't that many records (only 60+) that would need
updating.
