This thread is for authors with names in common with one or more other authors. If you have found a book or book(s) by your fellow-named authors, or for some other reason someone else's book has landed on your profile, this is the thread for you.

Please include a link to each book that needs moving off your profile.

(Note: Starting new threads for each author (or book) is still ok. This thread is to prevent such requests from landing in the Please Delete thread.)

Post removed.

If an author or other user believes their post from the previous thread was skipped, they are welcome to re-post here.

If a librarian believes a post was skipped, taking care of the issue would be a better option.

I'm reviewing these individually. They will be gone soon. Thanks for your patience.

I have disambiguated a large portion of the Katherine Johnson authors. Yours in particular seem to be correct. Please let us know if you notice new works show up in your profile.

This is your author profile:
https://www.goodreads.com/author/show... and the book is on that profile.
The new one you wrote this message from is a user profile.
If you want the book to be on a "blank" profile so that you can have your books read, etc. separated, you have to contact Support to let them know to adjust it.

Luke Swanson | 14 comments Hello!
A collection that I am a part of was attributed to a different Luke Swanson.

I am Luke Swanson, author of "The Ten."

The collection is called "Hunted" (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5...).

Could that collection please be added to my author's page (https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...), not the other Luke Swanson's?

Thank you!

20- if you copy from other posts the links lead to Harry Potter
23 Someone did this when approving your profile
24 We can't delete books you contributed to from your profile. I don't see your name associated with Our Powerful Helper so I removed it. For the one not yet published, Support *might* delete. You have to contact them via the link in this group's description

26- done
27- done above
It will take a day or two for the books to disappear completely

Hello, Thank you so much for removing the books. But another book has been added automatically to my dashboard, It's again by the author of the same name as mine.

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5...

Please remove this as well.
Why does it happen automatically?

Thanks in advance
Pallavi Sharma

Emily | 17486 comments Pallavi wrote: "Please remove this as well.

Because any book imported automatically goes to the default profile, which you have. If you would like to change to the other profile, where books would have to be moved TO yours rather than off of it, you can contact Support. We are always happy to move the books as it only takes a moment.

Amber Lynn (amberlynnauthor) | 6 comments Introvert Looking In

This is my book, but it is on someone else's page as I am a new author. How do I get it off of someone else's page onto a page for me? I have emailed support with no response yet.

#36 done. I moved it to Amber Lynn (Amber Lynn with three spaces between the name and the surname). To claim it, go to that profile, scroll to the bottom and click on "Is this you? Let us know".


message 38: by Alex (new)

Alex | 2736 comments #32 Done.

#33 Done. Please be aware, for future reference, that yours is the 2-space profile, meaning there are 2 spaces between your first and last name (i.e. Neale^^Martin).
These spaces need to be added for a book to be properly placed on your profile.
When making requests like this, it would be very helpful if you include this information.
If you wish to claim your author profile, you may do so by completing the form found here. For more information on the author program, see here.
