transferring books between authors

[Martin]

Hi,

There are two Martin Willoughbys on here (I'm the handsome one) and the postcard books keep appearing on my list. I want to transfer the postcard books to the other Martin Willoughby, much as I'd like to tailgate on his fame.

Any idea how? I can't find anything that'll do the trick.

p.s. I am a librarian on the site.

The other (Postcards) Martin Willoughby has two spaces between his first and last name (that is how GR keeps you apart), and you have one.

Since you have the default profile, with only one space, unfortunately any auto imported books will keep appearing on your profile first, and need moving - the bots that import books can't tell which of you wrote it. It's pretty easy to fix though, once you know how.

ETA: Please don't do that thing you did to the book descriptions, removing legitimate data in the process. They're put there by automated processes, and most of the "editors" here are us volunteer librarians. If you ask us right here to fix the books, we do so usually within a couple of minutes.

Hi, I didn't remove any data that I'm aware of.

I've also had these books removed before and placed on the other account only to have them moved back again.

Thanks for your help.

As for the comment about the editors, I wasn't aware that it was done automatically. Please accept my apologies.
