Hello, Goodreads librarians cannot merge verified profiles, only goodreads employees can. Since in this case that profile had no followers or others, I simply moved the books over to your profile, fixed the format and combined them. Per the librarian manual there shouldn't be a space, so please don't move the books to K. A. Quinn, K.A. Quinn is the correct format.

For future reference book titles that belong to a series should follow the format of "Book Title (Series Name, #X)". Added alternate cover editions for your books and also created a series page for The Accident Zone Trilogy.

Only Goodreads employees can merge verified profiles, Goodreads librarians can't do that. I moved the book over to your profile since the other profile was empty. Per the librarian manual, the correct formatting is J.P. Behrens.

Τελχίνας (aaraigathor) | 347 comments There are two problems in this one. In this graphic novel ( https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6... ) that "name" should be corrected in two different ones:

1. Pierre Christin (as an author): https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...
2. Enki Bilal (as an illustrator): https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...

Also, that edition should be merged with those ones: https://www.goodreads.com/work/editio...

Τελχίνας (aaraigathor) | 347 comments Some names that has to be fixed:

1. Μιχάλης Ζ. Κοπιδάκης: https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...
2. Αθανάσιος Κ. Χριστοδούλου: https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...

Also there are no links between official author names and on those registered in Hellenic language (Not mine but only those which are officially written in Hellenic publications). Can you link such names? I have to request them in this thread or somewhere else? Three examples:

3. Σόμερσετ Μωμ ( https://www.goodreads.com/author/show... ) & W. Somerset Maugham: https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...

4. Ονορέ ντε Μπαλζάκ ( https://www.goodreads.com/author/show... ) & Honore de Balzac: https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...

5. Σιμόν ντε Μπωβουάρ ( https://www.goodreads.com/author/show... ) & Simone de Beauvoir: https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...

True, but "Biblionet" that is a service of "Hellenic Foundation of Culture" and co-operates with "Ministry of Culture", have them both in properly written names in their database:

1. https://biblionet.gr/%CF%80%CF%81%CE%...

2. https://biblionet.gr/%CF%80%CF%81%CE%...

Can you at least make a refference in their profiles with their full names, as you did in any similar case?

And how about the other names I gave you, that they are written this way in book covers too and Goodread's policy dictates to link them with the main author's name?

Also, Μαρία Παππά must be corrected: https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...


message 390: by Τελχίνας (last edited Sep 28, 2022 02:08AM) (new)

Τελχίνας (aaraigathor) | 347 comments Correct this title please to "Ντενεκεδούπολη: Πέντε Έργα για Κουκλοθέατρο" ( https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5... ) and the author to those two:

1. Ευγενία Φακίνου: https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...
2. Eugenia Fakinou: https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...

If you want, you can correct publisher too as "Καστανιώτης".

Τελχίνας (aaraigathor) | 347 comments Those three must be corrected to Γεωργία Δεληγιάννη-Αναστασιάδη ( https://www.goodreads.com/author/show... ):

1. Γεωργία Δεληγιάννη: https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...
2. Γεωργία Δεληγιάννη Αναστασιάδη: https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...
3. Γεωργία Δεληγιάννη - Αναστασιάδη: https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...

Also, the "Anonynus" ( https://www.goodreads.com/author/show... ) is a mispelling and should be corrected to "Anonymous": https://www.goodreads.com/author/show... or even better to "Unknown": https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...
