#50 there's no need do anything with empty profile without quotes or followers; you can merge them to 'NOT A BOOK' profile if you really want it to disappear (which I did with this one)

#52 The duplicated profile was created by automatic import from Amazon where this book is listed under 'D.Elias Jenkins'https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07...
It wasn't a claimed profile.
I moved the book to your profile and added alternate cover edition.
Also corrected book titles, series names etc.
I noticed that 5 books on your profile were originally published under 'David Elias Jenkins' pen name.
Please note that it is Goodreads policy to have name the book was originally published under as a primary author on ALL editions.
Therefore please let us know if you wish to have your profile name changed to 'David Elias Jenkins' (it would be allowed as a common name for both versions of your pen name as it is more complete version and includes 'D. Elias Jenkins') or if you wish to keep your profile name as 'D. Elias Jenkins'.
In this case 'David Elias Jenkins' will be listed as a primary author on all editions and 'D. Elias Jenkins' will be listed as secondary author
Books originally published under 'David Elias Jenkins' were now corrected in anticipation of author's decision.
Hello Olivia, I see this might be a similar problem to one I just created a new discussion about: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...Might you be able to help?
Thank you!
Hello.Please delete duplicate incorrect author profiles.
Correct author profiles are:
https://www.goodreads.com/author/show... in English
and
https://www.goodreads.com/author/show... in Russian
Incorrect duplicate profiles are:
https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...
https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...
Thank you!
Jesse Hester and Jesse A. HesterAmazon seems to indicate that these two profiles are for the same author, the first has the first two books in the series. The second has books 3 thru 6.

I've just realised that there's a duplicate profile of some kind for me. If someone could fix that, it would be helpful :) Correct Profile:
K.F. Jones
Duplicate:

Books moved to your profile. The duplicate should disappear eventually.

Hi, please merge/delete duplicate author profile.Correct author profile

Incorrect duplicate profile
https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...
PS: Duplicate seems to be due to the Korean editions listed under it. Can you combine the respective book editions?

I merged the incorrect profile into Rie Aruga, but I'll leave the combining to someone else. Titles will have to be corrected and my Korean is nonexistent.
