This thread is for authors with names in common with one or more other authors. If you have found a book or book(s) by your fellow-named authors, or for some other reason someone else's book has landed on your profile, this is the thread for you.

Please include a link to each book that needs moving off your profile.

(Note: Starting new threads for each author (or book) instead of posting in this thread is still ok -- even recommended. This thread is to prevent such requests from landing on threads linked to specific books or authors.)

Tyler | 2 comments The following book *is* mine, but it won't let me claim it on my author profile since it's missing my middle initial:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4...

Can someone fix it so that it shows up on my profile (https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...)? (If you look at the book cover, it lists my middle initial). Thank you!

#5: This is the wrong thread for your request. You will need to contact support to have the profiles merged.

message 8: by David (new)

David M. M. (davidmarktaylor) | 2 comments I am new to Goodreads and just found out that a couple of my books are attributed to other authors.

First Title (EN, Spanish and Portuguese versions)

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5...

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

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...


Please make me the lead author in all cases as my Father Albert Taylor has passed away and he was not involved with the new editions.

Should this not be feasible, certainly you need to replace current Albert Taylor (engineer) with my Father. Here is his new profile, that I created.

goodreads.com/alberttaylor


message 9: by David (new)

David M. M. (davidmarktaylor) | 2 comments Also please attribute this book to me as well.

We cannot connect an book with a user account. If you'd like to claim your author profile, you will find a link near the bottom of the David M. Taylor profile.


message 11: by Kelley (new)

Kelley Holland | 1 comments Hello, I reached out a few months ago because I appear to be one of two authors named Kelley Holland. I wrote a book called You Are Worthy: Change Your Money Mindset, Build Your Wealth & Fund Your Future, which will be published September 20. The other Kelley Holland wrote a cookbook for electric skillets.
At the time, someone got back to me quickly and said we had been separated somehow, and I moved on. I proceeded to create an author profile, discuss and recommend books, etc.
Now it seems my author profile has disappeared, and I am listed as having published both of the books above. Can you help? I am getting close to my pub date and I would like to do a giveaway, but this is a problem. Thanks.

Abcdarian | 26579 comments #11: I have moved the bookbook off this profile: https://www.goodreads.com/author/show... You will need to claim the profile by clicking on the "Is this you? Let us know" link at the bottom of that page.

There seems to be a problem with the other profile; I can see it on the list of similar named authors, but it will not load. Support may have to straighten things out. Looks like two different pictures of you were used on the two profiles.


message 13: by Michael (new)

Michael II | 4 comments All of the books linked to my current Author Profile here https://www.goodreads.com/author/show... are not my books.

The following link is my only book in which is an ebook and paper back. I have submitted for the paperback to be created as well.

You need to contact Support https://www.goodreads.com/about/conta... and ask to be moved to a new author profile with just your book on it. At the moment you have the default profile for that name.
