message 52: by Rick (new)

Rick Hall | 4 comments In my Author Profile, I have one book, Gnosis, which is correctly listed as mine. This is the link:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4...
If I click on my name, Rick Hall, under that book, it correctly takes me to my author page.
However, there is a paperback edition of the same book, found here:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4...
If I click on the ‘Rick Hall’ listed as the author there, it shows a generic author that includes several books that are not mine.
Ideally, I’d like my ebook and paperback (the two links above) to be attributed to me, so that I can merge them.

Melanie (mvalente89) | 2197 comments Evicka, please see the GR policy on spacing in initials.

https://www.goodreads.com/help/show/2...

Also, you have to change the name on all editions of the book, not just the linked edition.

Evička de Blois (tvidatko) | 63 comments Melanie, thank you for your help, I didn't know that I have to change all editions! + I thought that initilas have different rule to separating authors, so sorry! Will remember, thank you once again!

Behdad Ahmadi (vispaar_ariana) | 1 comments Hi. This strange Chinese book (or whatever it is) has suddenly appeared in my profile.

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4...

Would you please remove it?

p.s) By the look of it in Goodreads and also in amazon, it appears to be fake. (not shelved in Goodreads, no price or buyers/sellers in Amazon) maybe you'd want to delete the book?

message 78: by Charlie (new)

Charlie Wright (charlie_wright) | 1 comments Hi there,

I am trying to make my profile an author profile by marking a book as my own. However, I found the book but it's registered as some else's with the same name.

This person here. https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...

As a result I've been unable to create my author account. This is the book that is mine but is being seen as the other person's with the same name. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4...

So I need it registering under a different charlie wright author page if possible please.

I see that the book is now on a new Eric Lindstrom page, but it also still appears on my page--
https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...
--and is linked to the other. Will the change take time to propagate?

Please link to the books' pages rather than the blank book covers.

To answer your question, yes changes like this can take a day or so to finalize.

message 96: by Dani (new)

Dani | 1 comments Hi,

So this book is mine:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4...

But when you click on the author name it displays this list, none of the other books are mine:
https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...

My author page has not yet been approved so I don't know if that's necessarily a contributing factor. I just want to make sure my title gets linked properly to me.

Thanks!


message 97: by Emily (last edited May 25, 2019 02:03PM) (new)

Emily | 17452 comments #97 Done, someone moved it to disambiguate from the default, but did not check to see if yours was claimed.

#98 If your author profile has not been approved, then you do not have one yet. That page is the default for anyone with your name. As long as you told Support which book is yours, they will put it on a new one for you at that time. If you did not tell them, you should write to them again from the Help tab at the bottom of the page.

Hello!
I'm listed as one of the co-authors for the following book, but I did not write it.
It is a different Lisa Richman.
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

All of the other books listed under my name are correct.

Thank you!
