Author's name confusion

I can see that two Librarians have tried to fix it, but this cannot be done by Librarians.The technical explanation: when there is more than one author with the same name, an extra space is added between first and last name in the author profile. This will separate the author profiles.
When an author has an accented letter in their name, a second profile will be created. There is no option to choose between these two 1-space author profiles.
One of these profiles needs an extra space in their name, but since both are GR-authors, only GR Support can do that.

I'd like to ask you for your help. I've just added a book (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2... however, there is a confusion with the author. Her name is Alicia Sánchez, but there are two authors with the same name. The writer of the book "Miss Quimera" is this one: Alicia Sánchez, instead of Alicia Sanchez. It would be possible for you to change it, please?
Thank you very much :)
