#261 I moved the football book off your profile and it will take a couple days to go away completely. I fixed the information in your book records, so they do not need to be deleted or moved.

Jenna (thisisjenna) | 6 comments Hi! I am not the author, but on Joanna Marsh's blog she says she has only written one book (Cantique). On Amazon, Cantique is also the only book listed under her name.

On her page here on goodreads (Joanna Marsh), there are multiple books listed, which I think were written by authors with the same name.

It is important to edit the author name on each edition of the work when doing this. Corrected.

Keith Crawford | 2 comments Hello. It seems there are a lot of Keith Crawfords out there, as only one book on my page is mine ("Vile"), and the following are not:

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/7...

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

(Particularly keen to remove that one!)

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

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

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

Would you please remove these from my profile? Particularly the long list of books obsessed with infidelity and women's intelligence!

My own book also seems to appear twice:

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

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

Not sure if that is a problem or not.

Thank you for your help!

Keith.

Emily | 17471 comments Hi Keith,
You have the default profile for your name, so anything by someone with your name will import to that profile. You should contact Support and have them assign you and your book to a new one. I've combined those editions together. Just let them know which book is yours.

Lu | 601 comments #272 Books moved, but I recommend doing what Emily said so you won't be constantly having other people's books added to your profile.

Each edition of each work must be edited to change the author name. Editing just one is actually worse than editing none of them. It means they show up on both author profiles, and a number of features don't work properly.


message 265: by Lu (new)

Lu | 601 comments All editions edited, sorry I missed that.

Grasshopper Bot (daisyking) | 20 comments Please help with sorting out these issues:
1.The book Goodreads Best Short Stories 2019 shows the link to a different author Beatrice Williams & a different Simon Bradley as the contributor.
2. Also Oliver Baer is listed as Olive Baer
3. There seem to have been two books listed inadvertently. Could both the books be combined as one edition?
Your help would be highly appreciated.

Thanks a ton Luisa.
1.Here are the links to the correct authors:
Beatrice Williams
Bradley Simon
4.Also, I had skipped adding the name of Sandra Black as one of the contributors. Could you please add her too?
https://www.goodreads.com/user/show/8...
5. The aforementioned Sandra Black had also contributed to the The Golden Years . Please add her there too instead of the other Sandra Black.
6. Any suggestions as to how to share sale profits(if any) with authors in collections such as the above?
Sorry for the trouble. Highly appreciate this service.

#290
1) Liked to the correct authors
4 & 5) Added Sandra Black. She doesn’t have an author profile so she may wish to claim one. I’ve moved those books to a unclaimed profile, she can claim it here:
https://www.goodreads.com/author/conf...
6) I’m sorry but I know nothing about that, Librarians are just volunteers.

Hi Robert, since you have the default profile for your name all books by Robert Barclay will be automatically linked to you, in cases like yours it's best it you contact support and ask them to move you and your books to a new profile (Robert^^Barclay, where each ^ it's a space).
