زين يوسف (zain-joseph1) | 5 comments This book is mine:

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

BUT I found it under a different author's page!!

Therefore, I cannot use my ASIN B0FT2ZB4JJ because it is already in use by that fake author. Please delete these links.

Shim (slimmy) | 3578 comments The primary author name is set according to the book cover. I have added your account as a secondary author and combined the editions. I recommend claiming the page with the profile with the English version of your name (using a separate account).

This request is complete.

Please edit the title / subject of your post and add [done] so other Librarians know it is complete.

زين يوسف (zain-joseph1) | 5 comments The issue became worse. Now there are 5 editions, while they are supposed to be only two (one Arabic & one English).

Now, I have 2 pages for the same Arabic edition (ASIN B0BPSW92ZN is the original) and 3 pages for the same English edition (ASIN B0FT2ZB4JJ is the original).

Can you fix that, please, by combining every edition based on its language?

زين يوسف (zain-joseph1) | 5 comments Can you please combine these two editions?

The first link is with ASIN B0BPSW92ZN is the original.


Thanks.

زين يوسف (zain-joseph1) | 5 comments Sorry for bothering you, but I'm a little confused. The link shows three editions (2 Arabic & one English), while they are supposed to be only one Arabic and one English.

Also, in this link:-

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

When I choose to go to Kindle, it leads me to the book page on Amazon, which is great. But, with the English edition, it does the same but leads me to the Arabic version page on Amazon instead of the English version page:-

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FT2ZB4JJ

Scott | 9090 comments I have looked further and indeed, one of the Arabic editions does need to be merged, as the ASIN was added later. However, the status has been set by staff and cannot be changed by a librarian. Please contact support.
