Jasmine (pixiejazz) | 2 comments Can you please remove this book from my author profile? I didn't write it. I did edit it, though.

#108 Moved from your profile.

It looks like Rivka was working with you here, and had a question about some other books that hadn't been answered; perhaps that was one of them?

Thank you so much!

but: setting a librarian not doesn't help anybody - we can not see it until we are already editing the book - and that can really take a while (lately I came across notes which asked for moving books which were several years old ... because it's just coincidence to see one) - best way is, as you done it, mention it here.

Isabella May (isabellamayauthor) | 2 comments Hi there - please would you delete the following books from my author profile https://www.goodreads.com/isabellamay... ASAP. Many thanks:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

THIS IS THE ONLY BOOK I HAVE WRITTEN TO DATE: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...

There appear to be 2 Isabella Mays... I have written 2 emails about this so far but still the above 3 books are showing up on my author profile. Please remove them! Many thanks.

☕ Lachgas ♿  (lachgas) | 9386 comments #114 the third one was moved days ago already.
moved the other two - but they may be not the same you asked someone about, they are new editions (there were already editions of both on the 2 space profile).

But that will happen again if there are new books published by any Isabella May. You have the default 1 space profile claimed. (GR differentiates by spaces between first and last name and all bots import to the profile with one space
If that's too annoying for you you may ask support if they move your profile to a different spacing - that will also mean - your books imported by bot (or not entered with the correct amount of spaces) won't show up in a more spaced profile automatically.

edit: as your only book wa moved to the 2 space profile by an GR employee (I moved it back to your GR profile before I saw that) you should contact support - they may have given you the wrong profile (accidentially 1 space instead of two)

Deep | 1 comments Hi:

Here is my profile: https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...

These books do not belong to me, can you assist me in removing?: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...

Thank you!


message 111: by Sandra (new)

Sandra | 31397 comments #116 unfortunately Deep, as you only have a single word as your name, there is no way to disambiguate you from the other author.


message 112: by ☕ Lachgas ♿ (new)

☕ Lachgas ♿  (lachgas) | 9386 comments #116 you may contact support (at goodreads dot com) and ask them - I saw in some (rare) cases the added a * or something to the GR authors name so that disambiguation is possible. (GR uses spaces between first and last name to distinguish, but as there is no last name in your case we can't add necessary spaces)

☕ Lachgas ♿  (lachgas) | 9386 comments #131 it's helpful if you link to the author profile - the id doesn't (unfortunately) help us for moving books.


message 128: by Lau (new)

Lau Maia | 444 comments Lachgas I think he send the ID so we know the spaces in the name, it helps :)


message 129: by Maya (new)

Maya (maya_berger) | 5 comments Hi,

Here is my author page
https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...

Please remove this book from my author page:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...


message 130: by ☕ Lachgas ♿ (new)

☕ Lachgas ♿  (lachgas) | 9386 comments #134 we don't know the spaces by the ID - we have to open another author, copy the ID, insert it into the other tab and then looking for the spaces ... so it's way easier to just click the link.
(and if he copies the ID out of the author it shouldn't be more difficult to just post the complete link instead of only the ID out of it)

Since that would mean moving over 40 books, it's best if you use the Contact Us link on the Help page to ask for your single book to be moved to a new author profile instead.
