Please combine Italian and English editions and fix Author Dashboard listing > Likes and Comments

Hello,
I am the Goodreads Author Bruno C.A. Sebastiani. I tried to combine the Italian and English editions of the same work using the Combine Editions function, but the job was queued and has still not completed.

The two works are:

Il cancro del pianeta — Work ID 73027963
THE PLANET'S CANCER: Why Humanity Is Earth’s Malignancy — Work ID 260667744

The Italian work contains the Italian paperback and Kindle editions; the English work contains the English paperback and Kindle editions. They are translations of the same book and should therefore be combined as editions of one work.

In addition, THE PLANET'S CANCER: Why Humanity Is Earth’s Malignancy is correctly linked to my Goodreads Author profile, but it does not appear anywhere in my Author Dashboard.

Could you please combine the two works and, if possible, correct the Author Dashboard listing?

Thank you very much,
Bruno C.A. Sebastiani

One further clarification: I have now checked my complete The Planet’s Cancer series. There are several other Italian/English pairs that are translations of the same works and should also be combined.

The complete list is:

1. Il cancro del pianeta
THE PLANET'S CANCER: Why Humanity Is Earth’s Malignancy

2. Il cancro del pianeta consapevole
THE PLANET'S CONSCIOUS CANCER: Awareness of Our Malignancy
This pair now appears to have been successfully combined.

3. L'impero del cancro del pianeta. L'organizzazione della società ai tempi dell'ecocidio
THE PLANETARY CANCER EMPIRE: Society’s Organization in the Age of Ecocide

4. RIVELAZIONE: Discorso alle cellule malate
REVELATION: Address to the Malignant Cells

5. I LIMITI DELL'INTELLIGENZA
THE LIMITS OF INTELLIGENCE: Why We Can Destroy Nature but Cannot Recreate It

6. P.I. PUNTEGGIO INDIVIDUALE
P.I. PERSONAL INDEX: Parliamentary Chronicles from the Future

7. PENSIERI ERETICI
HERETICAL THOUGHTS: Short Essays Against Progressive Orthodoxy

Could you please combine each Italian/English pair as editions/translations of the same work? The second pair already appears to have combined successfully, so no action may be necessary for that one.

Thank you again for your help.

I have now discovered a more serious author-attribution problem.

In the Goodreads mobile app, only one of my seven English books appears correctly under my author profile. Several of the English books are missing.

I have also discovered that at least one of my books, THE LIMITS OF INTELLIGENCE: Why We Can Destroy Nature but Cannot Recreate It, is currently attributed on Goodreads to a different author named Bruno Sebastiani, who is the author of Le streghe di Salem. That is not me.

There also appears to be a duplicate/misattributed edition of THE PLANET'S CANCER: Why Humanity Is Earth’s Malignancy on that other Bruno Sebastiani author page.

This may also explain why the Preview function for one of my books opens a completely unrelated book by another Bruno Sebastiani.

My correct Goodreads Author profile is:
Bruno C.A. Sebastiani

Could you please check all seven English titles in The Planet’s Cancer series and make sure that every edition is attributed to my correct author profile before combining the Italian and English editions?

The seven English titles are:

THE PLANET'S CANCER
THE PLANET'S CONSCIOUS CANCER
THE PLANETARY CANCER EMPIRE
REVELATION
THE LIMITS OF INTELLIGENCE
P.I. PERSONAL INDEX
HERETICAL THOUGHTS

Thank you very much,
Bruno C.A. Sebastiani

If the editions are on your profile you can combine them yourself. If it doesn't work, keep trying over and over. It's the same for everyone. Or contact support.

If a book needs to be moved to your profile link to it.

Thank you, Scott.
I understand.

I have found at least two books of mine that are currently attributed to the wrong Bruno Sebastiani profile:

THE LIMITS OF INTELLIGENCE: Why We Can Destroy Nature but Cannot Recreate It (The Planet’s Cancer Book 5)
This book is currently listed under the other Bruno Sebastiani, author of Le streghe di Salem, and should be moved to my author profile, Bruno C.A. Sebastiani.

THE PLANET'S CANCER: Why Humanity Is Earth’s Malignancy (The Planet’s Cancer Book 1)
There is also an edition of this book on the other Bruno Sebastiani profile.

I will post the direct Goodreads links to the affected book pages below.

Thank you very much for your help.

Thank you, Scott. I have now found the source of the problem.

Goodreads has created a duplicate author profile for me:

Incorrect duplicate profile:
Bruno C. A. Sebastiani — Author ID 68718069

My correct Goodreads Author profile:
Bruno C.A. Sebastiani — Author ID 33287510

All six works currently listed on author profile 68718069 are mine and should belong to my correct Goodreads Author profile 33287510:

P.I. PUNTEGGIO INDIVIDUALE: Cronache Parlamentari dal Futuro (Cancrismo)

REVELATION: Address to the Malignant Cells

P.I. PERSONAL INDEX: Parliamentary Chronicles from the Future

I LIMITI DELL'INTELLIGENZA: Perché possiamo distruggere la natura ma non ricrearla (Cancrismo)

THE LIMITS OF INTELLIGENCE: Why We Can Destroy Nature but Cannot Recreate It

HERETICAL THOUGHTS: Short Essays Against Progressive Orthodoxy

For example:

THE LIMITS OF INTELLIGENCE
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

HERETICAL THOUGHTS
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

Could you please move/reassign all the books on author profile 68718069 to my correct author profile 33287510?

Once they are under the same author profile, I should then be able to combine the corresponding Italian and English editions correctly.

Thank you very much for your help,

Bruno C.A. Sebastiani
