Ayshe | 3084 comments https://www.goodreads.com/author/show... probably should be renamed to "Peter J. Wetzelaer"?

The follower looks to be following the correct profile also, but I thought it's better to be merged nevertheless.

Hannah (shgmclicious) | 25 comments Shaun David Hutchinson claimed his Shaun Hutchinson profile, but his book is published under Shaun David Hutchinson. This means he also has two records for the same book, The Five Stages of Andrew Brawley.

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2... unclaimed but correct author name

If she prefers to maintain the profile without a middle initial, then as long as all works published with the middle initial have that listed, that's fine.

Not all books on the unclaimed page belong to the Goodreads Author.

Neither of those are claimed profiles, so this is not the correct thread. Also, we do not merge different pen-names. If you need help adding different versions of the author names as primary/secondary authors to allow for combining, start a new thread in this folder.

Really? She is a film maker, short story writer (the selected shorts book is listed on her web page) and she has the unique name of Miranda July?

Philip (burnnerman) | 5912 comments Needs space added between First name and middle initial, also needs period after initial. You can see on different book covers that the A is an initial, not part of the first name.
