Tami, thank you for your help. I did want the proof copies of IMMACULATE CONCEPTION and PROMESA CUMPLIDA to be deleted. But I did not want the paperback copy of PROMESA CUMPLIDA deleted. Somehow it was. PROMESA CUMPLIDA is the Spanish version of PROMISE FULFILLED.If you could put back the paperback for PROMESA CUMPLIDA, it will be much appreciated.

The paperback of Promesa Cumplida was not deleted. it was simply combined with the English edition. You can find all the editions here https://www.goodreads.com/work/editio... Per Goodreads policies editions/translations of the same book should be combined.
Okay, I am glad that it is combined. That is what I wanted originally so the reviews and ratings would show up for both. However, the Spanish edition does not show up on my author dashboard. It did before.
That's probably because you are not the primary author. Per the cover Raul Caceres is the primary author. The book was not deleted and you are secondary author as you can verify on the book page https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... in order to combine the works together the primary author in all editions has to match.

If the primary author has a GR Author profile, they can change which edition should be the default, but you can't, since you are the secondary author.
The primary author is not an author and doesn't have a GR page. It's his memoir, but I wrote the book. The Spanish edition used to be on my dashboard, along with the proof. I just wanted the proof removed. If it can't be done, fine. It's just that originally the proof of the Spanish version, and the Spanish version were on my dashboard. Only wanted the proof removed.
Authors are listed in the order printed on the book. The other author is clearly more prominently presented "with" your name in smaller letters.


1. Please delete the Proof copy of IMMACULATE CONCEPTION.
2. Please delete the Proof copy of PROMESA CUMPLIDA.
I only want the original books to be posted. Thanks.
