#51 Done!

Douglas Murphy | 1 comments Hi, there are a bunch of books attributed to me on my profile that aren't mine at all.

To be clear, I've only written one book, Umbral Ten. Everything else that's been attributed to me was written by someone else who presumably just has the same name as me.

Heather Michelle (heathermichely) | 7 comments Hey Friends! (I hope this is an ok thread to post in) I just set up my first book to be published but it's listed under a different author with the same name, so I can't claim my author page:
Book: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5...

Emily | 17486 comments #59 I have moved the book to a new profile for you to claim. Since it is a Kindle edition, I changed the ISBN to the ASIN and added the rest of the details.
Do you have an ebook sold on another platform besides Amazon?

On the author page, scroll to where it says "Is this you? Let us know." https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...

Hi Suzi, thanks so much for your help. All of the books left are mine except this one: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

Are you able to move that one from my profile as well?

Thank you.

Michael

Thank you! I do have this book posted on a few other websites, and will have more in the next week, apple books, Barns & Noble, Kobo, etc. Is there something specific I need to change in this case?

No, we can create an ebook edition for you (non-Amazon) if you have the ISBN. You can create a new thread in the Adding New Books folder.

Cheryl Hunter (cherylann_hunter) | 2 comments Hello, I am new to goodreads. I found another author's work on my page. Please remove this book: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

Thank you so much!


message 68: by Alex (new)

Alex | 2736 comments #69 There was only 1 other book on that profile, which had the full name Cheryl Ann Hunter on its cover, so, as per GR guidelines, has been moved to a profile with the full name found here: https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...

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.


message 69: by Ashley (new)

Ashley Elliott (aelliott1321) | 3 comments Hi, my book The Infernal King (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5...) was placed under the other Ashley Elliott's author page.

If you could please correct this, that would be great. (Looking through these comments, I realized I must be the 2-spaced Ashley Elliott, which I deleted when adding my novel. Sorry for the inconvenience!)

Thank you very much!

message 72: by Alex (new)

Alex | 2736 comments #73 Done, but in reverse. I have moved the Lisa Walker profile to the 2-space profile (meaning there are now 2 spaces between her first and last name) and moved the non-disambiguated books to the 1-space profile, so random books should no longer appear on her profile.

I removed the works that you listed, but it looks like some of the anthologies with Kevin Meyers may not be yours. If there are more, or I missed some just list them.

From my author profile here:

I did not write 'Poems'."


It was added automatically. It is a reprint of a 19th century edition and may show up from another reprint house. FYI the actual author is Stephen Z. Shores. Just post here and someone will move for you if another shows up.

Sophie Smith | 2 comments Hello - I'm trying to create a new author page but my book as been listed under another author's page with the same name name. My pen name is "Sophie Smith", and my book title is "Don't Fall: Adventures in Love, Loss and Lead Climbing", published earlier this month. Can you please remove it from the other author's page so I can claim it? Thank you so much!

I have moved it to "Sophie^^^^Smith" where a ^ equals a space. The number of spaces is important to differentiate between you and the other Sophie Smith authors. It is transparent to readers and search engines.

message 95: by Emily (new)

Emily | 17486 comments #97 Mark, that book was not on your profile as you do not have an author profile. However, I have moved your book to a new profile that you can claim if you wish.
Scroll down to where it says "Is this you? Let us know" and fill out the form.

Matt Holland | 2 comments I must add that I'm sorry if I've posted in the wrong thread!! I feel like I've been a little greedy and asked for an awful lot from my very first post! I hope it's ok and thanks in advance!

Suzi | 8661 comments Hi. I'm new to this site and have recently self published. Here is my profile:

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

this is a user profile not an author profile. I have made a specific profile for your books. You may claim it from there.

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

Goodreads does not delete out of print books. There are books in the data base that are centuries old. It is a valid record.

The rest of the books listed as by Matt Holland are not mine:

https://www.goodreads.com/author/list...

Please can they be deleted from my profile?

as mentioned, I made a profile specifically for your work.
https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...


The new edition of my book is here:

https://www.amazon.co.uk/Snotty-McGro...

Please can this be added to my profile?
added as a new edition of the previous work
