Please provide a link to the book you are referencing so we're sure to work on the correct one.
Thank you but there is no need now, I see someone has already fixed the problem. Thank you though.
Hello, I created this book because I saw that it hadn't been added to the author's profile: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5...However, I accidentally typed her name wrongly. This book should be attributed to the author Meng Xi Shi: https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...
And 梦溪石 (her Chinese name profile): https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...
I can't edit the book metadata anymore, can someone please help me? Thank you so much.
You should create a new post about this problem specifically, a moderator will surely solve this.

In general, a new thread is not required if the existing thread is not linked to a specific book or author. And a moderator is not needed for most requests.
Starting a new thread is more likely to get a faster reply though.
I'm sorry, I thought a new discussion was required everytime, that's what I've always did. Thanks for the clarification.
Hi, what do you do if there isn't an author profile for a book you add? This one has accidentally ended up under the wrong "Patricia Juarez", but the actual author doesn't have a profile.https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5...
#9 Emmy, we move it to a new profile. Do you know who published it?
Hi! Someone could help me changing this author lastname? The second lastname should be with Z: Mariana Serrano Zalamea.
Thanks a lot in advance!
can someone change the addition I badly made to the author in this new edition? I tried to add the name of the translator, Vittorio Curtoni, but I must have made a mistake, and I don't know how to correct that.
If someone can also kindly explain how to do that correctly the next time, that would incredibly nice.
Thank you, and happy new year to whoever read this!
