Richard Newton (richardnewton) | 10 comments I am new to the site and just finding my way around. My author profile was set up quickly (thanks), but with an incomplete list of books. The complication is that there are several authors with the same name as me (I have counted at least 4!).

Additional books for my list are:

Brilliant Checklists for Project Managers, ISBN: 0273740768

The Project Manager, Mastering the Art of Delivery, second edition, ISBN: 0273723421

The Project Management Book: How to Manage Your Projects and Deliver Outstanding Results
ISBN: 0273785869

The Project Managers Book of Checklists, ISBN: 0273715585

Dream It, Do It, Live It, ISBN: 0857084569

The last book I an co-author on, and my co-author already has it on his profile.

Thanks for your help
Richard

Catalina | 2066 comments I think i moved them all, please check.

Your profile is Richard 4 spaces Newton, you need to add 4 spaces between Richard and Newton in order for the books to get on your profile and not to another one with your same name.

Richard Newton (richardnewton) | 10 comments Thanks Catalina-Laura for the quick response. It's much appreciated

Richard Newton (richardnewton) | 10 comments I have found a few others, mainly ebook formats. Can I add the four spaces to the author name on the book or do I need to be a Librarian?

Catalina | 2066 comments I found this one: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/62..., it's yours, right?!

Richard Newton (richardnewton) | 10 comments I've tried and failed!

All the books you mention are mine. Although the first one was a combined offer my publisher did with another writer so is not really a book, but an offer for two books. The second two are definitely mine.

The only other one which I am having trouble locating, but when I try to manually enter is says it is is already on the system. That is "The Project Manager: Mastering the Art of Delivery". The first edition is on my list, but a second edition was published in 2009. The ISBN is 0273723421.

Thanks again for all your help.

Paula (paulaan) | 7014 comments There are eight editions

The 2009 edition is third on the list, only the primary edition i.e. the one first on the list shows on the main author page.

you can change which edition displays first following these steps
