Wrong author attributed to book

[Geevee]

Hi, I hope I'm asking this in the right folder.

This book Soldiers: Army Lives and Loyalties from Redcoats to Dusty Warriors is attributed to Richard Holmes but should be under this Richard Holmes whose Goodreads page is here http://www.goodreads.com/author/show/...

Would it be possible to correct?

Thank you

Fixed. :)

When we disambiguate same-name authors, we use extra spaces in their names. So the proper Richard Holmes for the book you reference is Richard^^Holmes (where a ^ = a space). When new books get imported from Amazon/B&N they always end up in the Richard^Holmes because computers aren't that smart yet. It's an easy fix, when we know about it. :)

ryan ottley (the artist of 80% of the book) is showing as the primary author instead of robert kirkman (the writer of 100% of the book). this is throwing off the count of robert kirkman books i've read.

thanks!

Thanks!"

The Michael Horton you linked is a user profile and not an author profile, so there is no way to link them. I did however separate his books out into this profile, he can claim it as a Goodreads Author by clicking on the "Is this you? Let us know." link at the bottom of the profile.

Hi,
The book is attributed to this Stephanie Williams, which is incorrect and should be to this lady: http://www.goodreads.com/author/show/...

Could this be amended please?

Hello!

These books are attributed to this person http://www.goodreads.com/author/show/...
but she is not the author. She is an _older_ woman, and more about her is here:

Hope this helps - if you need me to do more research, let me know. Thank you!

Someone disambiguated your Virginia Smith but lumped her in with others, so I've created her for you, and added her other books :)
