Thanks"
Since the formatting of your name is the same as the default Mink, regardless of capitalization, you will need to contact Support to disambiguate your profile. We don't have the ability to do that for claimed profiles.
Hi, Can someone please delete these two books from my author profile (https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...)? They're not mine...https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4...

It was moved, but the initial was wrong anyway. I fixed it.

My book has been assigned to another author with the same name as myself. Can you please reassign this book to me? Or take them off as author, so I can claim my book? Thanks!The Path to Higher Consciousness: Creating and Healing Our Lives by Awakening to Our Greater Reality

#223 David, it seems like you still don’t have an author profile, I’ve moved your book to an unclaimed profile. You can claim it here:https://www.goodreads.com/author/conf...
I have a new book here:https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4...
This book has been wrongly attributed to the more famous Wayne Johnston. It should be removed from his catalogue and added for me as a new author profile. I also want to add my book cover although that is probably a different thread.
Thanks.
#225 Hi Wayne, it seems like you still don't have an author profile. I've moved your book to an unclaimed profile (Wayne^^^^Johnston, where each ^ it's a space):https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...
You can claim it here:
https://www.goodreads.com/author/conf...
I've also added the cover for both editions of your book, as I was able to find them on Amazon.

(This was a pre-publication posting that became Kickflip Boys)
All of the books that I specified were not mine when applying for an author's account are on my profile, but not the one that is actually mine (it was coauthored and is showing up on the other author's page with a link from there to what I think should be my author page). My account honestly looks like another author's account was given to me??? It had her profile photo on it (which I removed before I realized that it also still had all of her books as well as her biography information). But it also has the books that I read from my previous "non author" account. Please help me fix my account by either removing all of these books or letting me know how else I should proceed.https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...

Hi Luisa,Thank you for your help. Here is a link to the book which I coauthored with E.L. Smith.

Usually if takes some time for the data to update in the author’s initial page, but if you check your books you can see they’re actually gone: https://www.goodreads.com/author/list...

Hello,I have added my book to goodreads, but there is an author with the same name (Dave Henderson)
Here is my book link:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4...
Sorry if this is a n00b question. First time doing this :)
Regards,
The Other Dave
#242 Dave, it is not a noob question because that is what this thread is for. I added the cover and page count from Amazon (if that page count is not right, you would need to let them know because we have to use the one they provide). Note that for Kindle editions with ASIN, we use the format "Kindle" instead of "ebook."
I moved your book to a new profile. Goodreads uses spaces between your first and last name to distinguish authors with the same name so don't delete them.
If you wish to claim it, fill out this form. https://www.goodreads.com/author/conf...
Please remove this book from my author page, it is not me!https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...
Thanks so much!
Hi, this book does not belong to me, we just share the same name:https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
#245 Please only post in one place. Links do not copy and paste from post to post. They default to a Harry Potter book when that happens.
@Emily and/or whoever else. lolI am still finding the erroneous books on my author page, and when I click my author profile link, only the two previous books show up -- the latest doesn't book still isn't there. What should I do?
Tylie wrote: "@Emily and/or whoever else. lol I am still finding the erroneous books on my author page, and when I click my author profile link, only the two previous books show up -- the latest doesn't book still isn't there. What should I do?"I figured out what happened. At some point, an extra space was added between your middle and last names. So, the books were spread across two profiles. I have merged all of the editions that were created in error. I added the last book to the series and combined all of them onto the same profile.
Librarians don't have access to your author profile, so you will need to contact Support and ask them to merge yours into the other one -
