I have stories in 2 anthologies which are being linked to the former Prime Minister of Australia's page due to the lack of my middle initial appearing in the author credits:https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
Also, I inadvertently added an erroneous copy of the latter book to my author page. How do I delete this? Or does it need to be merged with the correct book?
Thanks!
John H. Howard
#4 I moved both books to your profile and merged the erroneous edition with the correct one, also moved the ISBN-13 there.https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...
I have a book called "Reflections on the Brazilian Counter-revolution" listed on my author page because one of its co-authors has the same name as me. I have been unable to remove it from my page. Can anyone help?https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...
The Kindle Edition of my book is attributed to another author with the same name.https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
Also will I be able to combine the kindle with the paperback?
After contacting Amazon, they removed these books where the author used my name. I am a librarian and tried to do this myself, but was unable as an error message popped up. Please help me remove my name from these books - I HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THEM AND MY NAME WAS USED WITHOUT MY KNOWLEDGE. What's Yours Is Mine What's Yours Is Mine 2 For The Lover In You
Just wondering why you claimed that particular author profile and not the one attached to your book: https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...
The wrong Michael Newton is listed as author on this title: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
Thank you, although I'm not sure ALL of those books are correctly attributed to him (the monster books?). Looks like this name needs some sorting out.
I moved the book away from the Michael Newton who did not write it. The profile it is currently on doesn't belong to a particular author; it has various people with the same name. If you know anything about the author of the Victorian Fairy Tales & what else is actually his, we can separate him out.
Sorry Elizabeth, I was hoping a super would take a look after the weekend. I can move all those books away & your book back, but you will have the default profile for everyone else's books to land on when they are auto imported. We'll do that for now; you may want to have it changed later, which is something a regular librarian can't do.
Edit: Done. Thank you for your patience!
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...should be listed under
https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...
Not

There is a book that I am not the author of showing up in my author profile. It is the book at this link https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...Can you remove it from the list of books I have authored or tell me how to do that?
Thanks!
I'm pretty sure this book here:https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
should be under this author:

Fred Emerson Brooks 1850-1923.
Dan Sweeney was the illustrator, Jo Anderson, his print shop was the publisher / printer as can be seen in the online version here:

Could someone take a look at this for me?
Thanks in advance.
#30: Edited: Finally found the mention of Fred Emerson Brooks as the poet; it was obscure! Will make the changes.
I missed your second post & found that eventually myself. It's weird that all the credit is going to the printer, copyright holder, postscript, etc.

This book: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2... is linked to incorrect James Maxwell. The real author is James Clerk Maxwell.
This book has been attributed to me but I didn't write it. It has been listed as part of the works done by Charles Lowe which is a name that I write under but all of my stories also have my name as part of the listed authorshttps://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
It was written by someone with the same name.
