Can anybody figure out (and remedy) why Jane Eyre is not appearing on Charlotte Brontë's author's page?

I solved some of the problem. Not all editions have the correct author listed as the primary author and for some reason one of those created this problem. (I found it by going to the combine page from the all editions page, I ended up on a profile that isn't the primary profile for Charlotte Brontë and found there the edition)The problem left is the default edition, that edition that caused the problem is now showing as the default. That might be related the reason this specific edition caused the problem.
Nothing librarians can do about the default edition. If it hasn't solved itself in a day or so I will send a message to the staff.

Even though you say the final solution is still a little way off, in fact Jane Eyre is now appearing in Charlotte Brontë's author page, and right up at the top where it should be, although the default edition is in Ukrainian.
It looks like the same has happened with Pride and Prejudice and Emma, both by Jane Austen. A Ukrainian edition is now showing on the Jane Austen page: https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...(and Emma was added in the Latin alphabet, I've corrected it to Cyrillic).
I'll contact GR Support, and will also ask about Jane Eyre, since I see the Ukrainian edition is still the default edition on Charlotte Brontë's page.
GR Support has changed the default edition to be Jane Eyre again instead of the Ukrainian edition: https://www.goodreads.com/author/list...Both titles by Jane Austen were also corrected: https://www.goodreads.com/author/list...
Thank you, I forgot to check this one again.
Clicking on the author's name in the Jane Eyre listing takes you to the correct author's page, but this is undoubtedly her most reviewed and rated book, with over 2 million ratings on Goodreads, and it is missing from the titles on her author's page.
