Someone added this book under my author name. I already have the kindle and paperback version since last summer. Any chance this one can be deleted please?

Thanks!


message 2: by Renske (new)

Renske | 12401 comments It is a valid edition, so it should not be deleted. Combined with the other editions.

Robin Black (robinblack) | 51 comments Please remove this book from my dashboard as I didn't write it https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

Thanks you!

Dawn | 89 comments Robin, updated the author name for that book so it's no longer attributed to you.

Robin Black (robinblack) | 51 comments Thanks!
Sorry for the double request.

Annie Seaton | 1 comments I have several books appearing on my dashboard which have since been unpublished and some that have new covers. How do I amend theme please?

GR does not delete books that are no longer available.
Please see https://www.goodreads.com/help/show/2... and https://www.goodreads.com/help/show/3...

Goodreads policy is to keep all published covers on the site, as users want to shelve the cover of the copy they have.
Instead, we add an alternate-cover edition.

Jerry (capvideo) | 134 comments A book just appeared on my dashboard that I didn’t write: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

The author appears to have the same name as I do.

Created a new book by mistake while attempting to add a different one (which I contributed to) to my author profile; please delete this one: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...

Abcdarian | 26579 comments #10: You probably should contact Support (@ goodreads.com). Regular librarians can't delete in that situation.

#11: Book merged with the original and your name added as contributor; it may take awhile to show on your profile. Another time, just ask to be added. :-)
