This book is not mine, please move it (part 8)

This is the second time I've posted about this issue in this thread. I initially posted on January 9 and the problem was resolved, but again, there are two books on my profile that I didn't write (the same ones I posted about last time):

Have I posted this in the wrong section? Just wanting to know so I can move it to the correct section as I wasn't sure when I posted this. (I am a Librarian but can't for the life of me seem to work this out)

Looks like your request was skipped, sorry about that. The book covers all have Daniel Howell on the front, so they have to have that name as the author name instead of a shortened version (Dan).
Since his profile was not claimed, I changed his name to "Daniel^^Howell" where ^ represents a space. Goodreads uses spaces in the author field to differentiate between authors with the same name. I moved all the editions of the upcoming book to the profile by inserting an extra space between Daniel and Howell in each book record.
It appears he is going by Daniel now anyway.

Thank you so much, Emily!

the other profile was not "yours" it was just the default, user and GR author profiles are not the same on GR (you can apply for a GR author profile at the bottom of the page by clicking "is this you? let us know")

It's not a book I have written, the author must just have the same name as me.
Please could someone unconnect it with my account.
Thank you,

Perfect! Thanks :)

Second time posting this issue. It's been half fixed.
There are two versions of my book on Good Reads. One version is under the wrong author. You have kindly combined the review under the correct author. Could you delete the second book listing under the wrong author, please?
This is the book under the correct profile.

This was corrected upon your first request.
1. Goodreads differentiates between authors of the same name by adding spaces before the last name.
2. Your author profile has 2 spaces: Dan^^Watters where the ^ equals a space.
3. The title you indicated was correctly under your profile until you removed the extra space on the book edition. I have put it back, which moved it back to your profile.
4. Goodreads does not use descriptions in titles. I removed the description from the title and added it to the description field.
5. Goodreads maintains records for each edition. Both of these are valid editions. One is a Kindle edition and one is a paperback edition.

I didn't write the below book so it would be great if someone could remove it from my author profile!

Hello, thank you in advance for the help. There are two books showing up under my name that I did not write, but the author and I share a name (A.C. Williams). This happens constantly on other platforms. Could these books please be removed?

I have just registered as an author with Goodreads, but there are two titles I have not written (or illustrated) on Your Books on my Dashboard. I have written 'Muddle-on-Marsh: Love mired by a time of War.'
However, not 'The extraordinary book of silly ...' by Theo Tsecouros.
Link: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4...
Or 'Building Maintenance and repair ...' by Peter Lufkin and Michael Towers.
Link: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/7...
I'd obviously appreciate if they're removed.
Regards,
Michael Towers

Thank you so muh.

The following book Caught Within Time is not in my author profile and I am the author. Could you please move it to my profile.
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B089G847HC
Thank you!

I found the title and moved to your profile.

"that there were two entries on Goodreads for the author, one with with a Goodreads Author label with all her details and one with no details and no picture. Most of her books are in the correct place, but the one I'm reading was attached to the 'unofficial' page along with several books which are in both."
These are the two pages:
Official https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...
and Unofficial https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...

Neither of your links work.


Kitchen crisis averted. It will take a day or so to disappear from your profile.
