Cynthia | 4 comments Good morning,

This is me: https://www.goodreads.com/author/dash...

I have one book on my author profile which is not mine. Here is the link: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4...

Thank you very much and have a great weekend. -Cynthia

Sandra | 31401 comments #620 Cynthia, only you can see your dashboard, just FYI.

Book moved from your profile. :)

Philip (burnnerman) | 5912 comments #622 - You should contact Support and have them move you and your book to a multi-space profile. You claimed the default single-space profile, where all imported books will be placed.

Being that there were that many book on the profile that were not your's they normally would not have given your that profile.

Rachel McLean (rachelmclean) | 3 comments Hello, I think my post #608 has been missed somehow - I'd be grateful if someone could remove the unpublished book for me. Thanks.

Janie Jones | 1 comments Hi there

I just created an author's page yesterday. I have only published one book, A Life Less Ordinary. I have been merged with another author with the same name. All the other books (as well as followers and ratings--I am a total newbie) are not mine.

Thanks!

Jane

I think you are going to have to contact support to have that edition removed, since it has a valid ISBN and the cover clearly displays that name. A librarian isn't going to do it.

Hi Janie,

Please ask support to move you to a non-default profile.

If you tell us the name of your book, or give a link to it, we can move it to a new author profile for you to claim.

If you tell us which book it is we can move it to a new profile, and then you can claim it.

Renske | 12220 comments 631 With most books not being your books on that profile, you should contact staff and ask them to move you and your book(s) to a different profile.


message 616: by Abcdarian (new)

Abcdarian | 26579 comments #633: Tiffany, the best thing would be for you to contact Support and ask to be moved to a new profile with just your book(s) on it. You have the default profile at the moment, where all books with that author name land.


message 617: by Tiffany (new)

Tiffany Young | 2 comments Thanks. I’ve made the request so fingers crossed. Would it make a difference if I added my middle name?

If it isn't on your books it might not make much difference, as any new book of yours would probably have to be moved to your profile anyway. Goodreads uses extra spaces for differentiating same-name authors, so your name will change to having 2 spaces between first and last names. It doesn't affect anything but book sorting.

Pete Worrall (peteworrall) | 1 comments Hi,
This book appeared on my Author Profile. Can you remove it please? All the others are fine.

Kevin Peake | 5 comments Hi,
This book is linked up to the wrong Kevin Peake.
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4...

It should be linked up to this one: https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...

Many thanks,
Kevin

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3... (as contributor)
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3... (as contributor)
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...

is the wrong author. The above three are really by a poet with the same name. I looked but don't see an author profile for poet Julian Randall.

Thank you!

message 644: by Ruth (new)

Ruth Klein (rklein) | 1 comments Hi!

I am author Ruth Klein, author profile page here: https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...

The book Surviving the Survivors (book link here: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4...) is written by a different Ruth Klein -- I don't think she has an author page set up yet.

The book Putitas Sumisas: Dominacion (book link here: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...) is also by a different Ruth Klein.

Thank you for the help!

Andrew Landis | 2 comments Hello. My book 'The Unknown Hunt' (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4...) is listed under the wrong author with the same name. Author page (https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...). If you would be so kind as to move it to my page (https://www.goodreads.com/user/show/8...) I would be very grateful. Please and thank you!

Hi Andrew,
As you do not have an author profile I moved your book to the new 2-space profile (Andrew^^Landis, where^=space)
https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...

You can claim this profile using the link below:
https://www.goodreads.com/author/conf...

If you'll chose to do it your current reader account will be merged with the author account once the claim is accepted.

Thank you. I was trying to do the "join author profile" via the instructions on the help page, but I guess since it was already under someone else, the option wasn't showing up like in the instructions, or I simply missed something. Have a good one.
