Multpile personality disorder / Different authors with the same name

[Jo]

Hi all,

I recently signed up for my author page - just thought I'd have a browse - and, of course, found out I'm not the only Jo Thomas in the world.

I applied to have my works put on my profile but a book has been added since I started a few days ago: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/16...

This Jo Thomas is a geologist who also wrote this one: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/44...

Could someone change the book shelves accordingly, please?

Thanks (and sorry for being a pain),
Jo

Hello again. Another Jo Thomas's work has been linked to mine again. I'm not sure which one this belongs to: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/16... but I don't have the history background to write textbooks!

Fixed! :)

Hello again,

I have another two books not mine:
- http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/17... should belong to http://www.goodreads.com/author/show/... rather than me,
- and http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/56... was translated by someone else (I don't speak German anywhere near that well)

Regards,
Jo

Hi, I am the author of this author page: https://www.goodreads.com/user/show/3....
Today a new book was added "Making Sense" https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... which is by another author, yet it is showing up on my author page. Could you please correct this.

Thanks,
Jim

I have a problem. I have two books uploaded under the name D.P. Brown and D. P. Brown. Somehow the space added to the 2nd book makes it impossible to show both books by the same author. The books are "The Lunch Box" by D. P. Brown and "Locked Hearts" by D.P. Brown. It was my mistake. Is there anyway they can be combined to both be D. P. Brown withg the space as there are many other D.P. Brown authors. Thanks!

Those two books have been moved to D.P.-2psace-Brown.

The extra space between your first and last names only shows up on book edit pages and your profile edit page, but it tells the system which books are yours. When adding a book manually, be sure to include the extra space, and the book will go where it belongs. If you forget, post in this group and any librarian can fix it for you.

Edit: I was assuming you are this author. Since you appear not to be, I am removing the information about how to claim the profile.

I need a librarian to fix "Locked Hearts"
please add a space after D. So both books show up
As the same author. Thank you

I did that before my initial post. Both of the two books you mentioned are together on the new author profile: http://www.goodreads.com/author/show/...

Oh sorry. Thank you. This is all so confusing!!

I am doing this on behalf of the author. I am in charge of all of his social media.
