I am The Translator and the founder for the Arabic edition of this book. Someone added it with out putting my name as a translator, and I don't have access to edit it's data into very useful one that describe all about the book.
please add me as a translator and if I can have access to update information that would be very great, thanks a lot.

I added you as translator. I'm not sure if that allows you to edit the book record. If not, you can always request the necessary edits in this group.

That was amazing, Thank you very much
just if you can combine those two editions or delete the new one it would be very Great.. because the are both the same with out any differences.

I deleted it as it had no shelvings (it may take a while to go through).

So you can edit edit the description. Please note that it should not contain personal feelings (there is "thieves ethics"?) or links to external sites: https://www.goodreads.com/help/show/404

I Deleted The External link.. about The Description it's quoted from the book not feelings or opinions.
this point is talking about Moony, Padfoot, Wormtail & Prongs "James Potter School Gang" the book describes Them as "Thieves with principles and manners". it's an additional introduction in The Arabic Version.
Can't Thank you enough <3

Generally author name on the book record should match what's on the cover. This book appears to have just "Madhuri" on the cover, copyright is "Madhuri Y": https://www.amazon.com/Untying-Fine-K...
so I think either one is fine as first author, but your author name is "Y. Madhuri". There are exceptions for differing from what's on the cover:
If an author has a common name, they may choose to differentiate their names from other authors in the database in other ways. Acceptable options include:

* inserting a middle initial or middle name
* lengthening a first initial to a full first name but this doesn't fall under these categories.

I added you as secondary author ( If you still don't see it on your profile, it's because of caching, going to the https://www.goodreads.com/author/list... and back should clear it.)

If another librarian thinks otherwise, please do feel free to chime in.

We go with what's on the cover for author name, not the copyright. Otherwise many authors would be listed very differently.

For a single-name author, adding a first initial is the same idea as adding a middle initial otherwise.

Book is now under Y. Madhuri. And Kindle edition also added: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...

Also, it gets confusing when a thread linked to a specific book or author is also used for other books. I am closing this thread. Start new ones for other books.
