 ## [Unreleased]
 ### Added
+- **Magazine UI shows page labels, display titles and merge suggestions.** The article index (list, playlist, driving-mode Index sheet and driving header) shows `display_title` (falls back to `title`) with the `page_label` ("Seite 33") in smaller muted text, plus small kind badges (advert, photo, contents, imprint, continuation) and an "Audio is out of date: re-render" badge when `audio_stale` is set. Review shows a suggestion box: the proposed merge target with confidence and a collapsible plain-language "Why do we think so?" list, **Merge into previous article** (`POST .../merge-into-previous {into}`; a 409 "proposal changed" refreshes the suggestion; undoable) and **Use suggested title** (`POST .../accept-title`; undoable). Controls are labelled, keyboard operable and 44 px high. Tests: `tests/magazine.spec.js` ("untitled entries", driving index).
 - **Untitled magazine entries ("Page 33") are explained, merged on request and given readable titles** (`core/magazine_untitled.py`, `scripts/magazine_untitled.py`). Root cause: the review screen creates a `Page N` stand-in for any page no article covers, and *Approve* without a toggled box saved only the visible page's regions, which cut multi-page features down to one page. On *c't KI Wissen 2026* this left 59 stand-ins, most of them continuation pages. A continuation detector scores each untitled entry against the article before it (lower-case/mid-sentence start, hyphenated break, the narration fusion rule, open ending, adjacent page, column width; a signed-off previous article or the page's own headline counts against). An optional local-LLM check runs only for ambiguous scores. Each proposal comes with a confidence and the evidence. Records whose title repeats the headline of the article they continue are proposed as well. Titles: a deterministic fallback (*Anzeige*, *Bildseite*, *Inhalt*, *Impressum*, *Editorial*, *Textfragment*, the page headline, or the first sentence cut to 8 words), plus optional validated and cached LLM titles in the magazine's language (`magazine_llm_titles`, `--no-llm`). Nothing changes silently. `GET /articles` gains derived `display_title`, `title_source`, `suggested_title`, `page_label`, `untitled_kind`, `merge_suggestion` and `audio_stale`, and `GET /untitled` plus `quality/report → untitled_articles` list everything. Changes happen only through the undoable `POST /articles/{id}/merge-into-previous` and `POST /articles/{id}/accept-title` (never over a real title), `POST /titles/suggest` (suggestion cache only), and the CLI's `--apply` (backup first). A merge keeps reading order, marks the article `audio_stale` (a fresh render clears it) and deletes no audio. See architecture/magazine-ingestion.md, "Untitled entries".
 - **Distinct, deterministic face profile per character** (`core/face_profile.py`). The cast of one book looked like one family because most sheets name no facial feature and the image model then draws its default face. Each character now gets a compact `face:` clause (face shape, jaw, nose, eyes, brows, mouth, cheekbones, skin, hair colour and style, facial hair, age signs, a mark) in the Subject of every character prompt: traits the sheet states (German or English) are kept, the rest comes from species/age/gender/culture-filtered option pools, chosen so that the characters of a book are spread apart (greedy max-distance in creation order; adding characters never changes an existing profile; relatives named in `relationships` share a few traits). Owner override: a `visual_face` text on the sheet. On the real books 02/03 the mean pairwise face-descriptor distance goes from 0.09/0.04 to 0.91 (44/68 characters had no face trait at all). See `architecture/character-visual-identity.md`.
 - **Dry run for faces:** `POST /api/character-face-preview {book}` lists every character's face profile (what came from the sheet, what was chosen) with a similarity matrix and before/after score; `POST /api/character-prompt-preview` also returns `face_clause`. Nothing is generated or saved.
