Sarah Stuart | 2 comments I have followed the instructions for removing books that I didn't write - adding a space between the author's names - 3 times successfully. Nothing I do gets rid of a book that claims I edited it and wrote the foreword. Emails and notes for the librarians are ignored. What next?

J. Darien (volus) | 56 comments There should be no (programming) difference between an author entry and an editor entry. Can you be more specific about the problem book?

Scott | 9046 comments What you don't do is edit the title and other info so that it is incorrect. Reverting and flagging.


message 4: by Scott (new)

Scott | 9046 comments Since the foreword is not credited to an individual in the book I have removed "your" name.

Abcdarian | 26579 comments Best to ask for help with specific books here in the Librarians Group Sarah. There are always librarians available. :-)

It was hard to find the authors where you added extra spaces in the name. You appear to have added random numbers of spaces & ended up with 3 different profiles for the other Sarah Stuart. I've tidied it up.

Not sure what you mean by "emails"; the only way to contact librarians is this group. Notes left on individual book pages will only be seen if a librarian happens to be editing that record.
