There is an edition of my book listed..."


Roxana Bahar Hewertson is the more complete version of the name, so that's the one we keep.

Neither of these is a claimed profile, so this is the wrong thread. Start a new thread in this folder if you need assistance.

Please review Goodreads policy on editors of single-author books.

Not all books on the unclaimed page belong to the Goodreads Author. The ones that do should be individually edited, which can be done by any librarian. Start a new thread in this folder if you need assistance.

Seems to deliberately publish under both names (different countries?) So books need editing, rather than profiles merging.

This thread is for merging duplicate author pages when one has been claimed. You need to claim your author profile using this link: https://www.goodreads.com/author/conf..., and then wait to be approved.
