 This was answered in another thread. You need to claim a different profile: https://www.goodreads.com/author/show... The link for claiming it is at the bottom of that page ("Is this you? Let us know.")

     This reading sample, put out on various sales channels by my publisher, was added to my author dashboard. I'd like to see it either deleted (I don't really know why people would want to rate a reading sample - it's not a book, just a few chapters) or attributed to Dutch Venture Publishing, not my author name. I hope this is possible.

      Jen, it is listed as a separate ebook on Amazon, from which it imported. It does need to stay on Goodreads, under your author name, but I did make it clearer that it is just an except, not the full book.
    
  
  
   I've just added my 2nd book, The Mines of Kothkish (The Chronicles of Midway #2) but it has been listed under the wrong author of the same name, Kevin Fleming. The 1st is, The Storyteller's Book (The Chronicles of Midway #1) is listed correctly. I don't know how to correct this. I've sent email to helpdesk but got no reply yet, can anyone please help.

Made a series for both books: https://www.goodreads.com/series/1408...
When you add books yourself, you have to add two spaces in your name, Kevin^^Fleming, with ^ is a space. This is to distinguish you from the other Kevin Fleming.

Found it! Thanks
 I'm a contributor to this volume (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...), so I would like it to show up on my Author Page (https://www.goodreads.com/author/list...).
      I'm a contributor to this volume (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...), so I would like it to show up on my Author Page (https://www.goodreads.com/author/list...).Instead, it shows up here (https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...), along with this book (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/9...) and this book (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...), both of which are already on my Author Page. In short, all three of these books should be removed from this other author's page.
Thanks for your help!

 Hi,
      Hi,The only book I wrote is "Homegrown Terror (Project Forge #1)" and yet there are over 60 works on my author page! Could you get rid of all of the others from my profile, as I did not write them?

Thanks

 #118 - BTW, this is going to happen whenever a new book comes in from import or when a user creates a book for one of the other authors with the same name, since you claimed the single space profile.

Actually, no. I dealt with moving Steve to his own profile. But Wolf, you edited one edition of each book, which has created a whole bunch of new profiles, but leaves the other editions linked to the single-space profile.

 Also made a wicked mess of Steve^^White, who already had lots of books of his own. I'm trying to weed out & send back to Steve^White.

Because the book is in Arabic, the author name should be added in Arabic and according to Google translate the name seems to be correct. If it isn't, please give the right name.
 It appears like that on the cover (bottom left corner) and unless you can provide the correct spelling in Arabic it needs to stay.

      HiyaI've just attempted to add one of my old books to my author page, but it's become associated with a different author with the same name.
The book with the incorrect attribution is:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
My (correct) author homepage is:
https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...
Thanks in advance for any help that you can offer.
 #144: Book moved to your author profile, but the ISBN may not be correct. It looks like an unfinished ISBN 13 maybe - ?
