Hi everyone, I was attempting to add a book noticed that my latest poetry collection is listed under another writer (we share the same name and we are often confused; his focus is education while mine in in creative writing) is incorrectly listed as the collection's author. Can this be shifted to correctly list me as the author?

Hello. There are 3 books on my Author Dashboard that I did not write. Here's the dashboard link:https://www.goodreads.com/author/dash...
Only the first of these two books -- L.I.E., and Anthropica -- are mine. The 3 others need to be removed. They are:

#873-874 done.#875: Would you mind requesting again next week? I've flagged that one for Support, since one of the bots apparently overrode the move from your profile a couple of days ago. Sometimes it's useful for them to see the error in situ, as it were.
#876-879 done.
It might take a while for author pages to update.

#881-883 doneI think it should be correct now
#884 done by someone else; #886 done.
Hi, I've posted this book a few times now, and for some reason, it keeps showing back up. Can someone PLEASE remove it from my profile and like, keep it off? It isn't mine. Digital hugs to the person who can make it happen. Thank you.https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/9...
#888 moved. Please see message 880—a bot put it back on your profile, and unfortunately there's nothing librarians can do about the overzealous bots. We're not fond of them either.

If you want, you can ask Support to move you to the *eleven space profile* because it is currently unoccupied. You would have to have your books moved TO that profile when they appear on Goodreads but others would not have to be moved off of it.
Granted they may fix it in days but it may take longer who knows.
It's up to you.
#890-893 and 895 done.894 - I went ahead and moved it again. I've flagged a pile of other things for Support today, and if they need to see an example that hasn't been fixed yet I don't think it'll be hard to find another one.
If you prefer, you can ask Support (https://www.goodreads.com/about/conta...) to move you off the default profile for your name, which should keep random books from landing there. The downside is that you'll have to manually add any new books of your own, or ask for them to be moved if a bot imports them first.
Emily wrote: "Elizabeth wrote: "I've moved it again. It is extremely frustrating."Oh wow. I just checked (because I could have sworn I moved it earlier this day, so you shouldn't have had to), and 1) I moved it seven hours ago, 2) the bot moved it back two hours ago, and 3) you've just moved it off again now. That's...not great bot behaviour.
Edit: reported it to Support again.
Hello, they have added me as one of the authors of this book but I am not; can you remove it from my profile? Thank you.https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
Hi there! My profile was just converted to an author profile (thank you!) and instead of just my book being associated with my profile all of the books by an author of the same name are associated and her bio is now in my profile as well. Help! Thanks! :D

You shouldn't have been given that profile https://www.goodreads.com/about/conta...

#915 done. It might take a while for your author page to update.The bots have been moving books off their correct pages, so if this happens again, you might want to reach out to Support.
