Blue Henderson (skybluefusion1) | 2 comments While looking through quotes I came across one by "Watch The Hunger Games 2014 Online HD Mockingjay" which obviously is not an actual author and is spam,possibly illegal site for watching films. (I didn't follow any links to investigate that). How is this to be handled?
Below is the link to the page that should be removed but I see no way to delete the page nor was I able to locate information in the Manual or searching the discussion on how this should be dealt with.

Thank you for fixing/providing info on how to address this type of issue.

lethe | 16359 comments This should be deleted by staff. To make sure they see it, you could also post this in the dedicated thread: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

... or, IIRC, rivka said authors' profiles could only be deleted by certain staff. The best thing to do is to contact Support.
