K, Nz | 162 comments Hi,
It's been a while since I have spent time on the site, and am wondering whether something needs to be changed where there are (in this case ë) foreign characters in a name. The correct author profile is https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...
in these two new editions this has been added.
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
In searching for the name (above) it appeared to also have happened to other Zoe's on the system.

Thanks for any help or advice.

Thanks so much - I'm wondering what causes the issue?

Abcdarian | 26579 comments Part of the weirdness of computers is my guess. :-)

Seriously, I don't know. It might be worth a mention in the Goodreads Feedback thread (https://www.goodreads.com/group/show/1), where the Goodreads techie people are more likely to be found.

K, Nz | 162 comments Hi,
I did mention it in the feedback thread, and apparently it is just what the import sources do at times.

I've forgotten how to merge authors?

Can you help for this one please? https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
Thanks so much. K.

Abcdarian | 26579 comments Can't merge those profiles; the correct one is a Goodreads Author. Corrected the author name, moved the book & combined.

K, Nz | 162 comments I think this is the correct record to combine this edition with.

Daffodil (daffodil_d) | 11 comments Could someone please change the author's name to 'Heidrun Hoppe' for this book:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

I entered the title for the author's name by mistake.

Thanks in advance
