Nguyễn Long | 5 comments Hi guys, I'm Long Nguyen, a Vietnamese book translator.

A few years ago, I made a thread about how my name is getting confused with another long-dead author, leading to several titles translated by me getting attributed to him (you can find the original thread here: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...)

Recently, I went back to his profile to see how things are going, and I found out that the same issue still persist. All the books that I translated are still being attributed to him.

Is there a way for me to edit the data of the books and give myself proper credits? And also, is there a way to notify whoever is adding these books that the one they've been adding isn't who they think he is?

Sandra | 31511 comments You can't edit another's profile, I've moved the books you listed on the original thread to your profile.

If there are any other books listed on the wrong profile, please list them here and I'll move them to your profile.

Ignore the front page of your profile & the other author, as it takes a couple of days to update due to heavy caching, but the author list is up to date for both of you:

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

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

As the other author has the default profile, either add your books when they are published before they are added here, or notify us and we'll move them for you. It's not a problem for us to move the books.
