Muhaimin Safaruddin (muhaiminsafar) | 13 comments Hi.

Can someone please make this version of this book entitled Islam dan Demokrasi the primary edition instead of other previous editions?

Also, please remove the duplication of this book here: Islam & Demokrasi

Thank you in advance!

Goodreads Librarians cannot manually change the primary edition of a work. That can be done by the author, but they do not appear to have claimed their Goodreads author profile.

Merge of duplicate pending.

Understood ~

About the author info, may I know what are the steps to edit it (profile picture, brief information, etc)? Thank you.

We can only add an author photo that is either in the public domain (quite uncommon for a living author), or one that you own the copyright to.

But we can add a brief bio, if you would like to provide one.

That is not a photo we can use. It is not in the public domain; it is under Creative Commons licensing. Goodreads is not set up to comply with the terms of Creative Commons licensing, so we are unable to use author photos under it.

C.J. Persson | 2 comments Hi!

I tried to change the primary edition for my two novels to reflect the new cover. I could do it for one but not the other.

Could someone please make the following link the primary edition for "Alice's Anger": https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5...

Thanks!

As stated above, only you can do this. Please see the Help section for instructions.

Downloading the problematic photo to another site does not help. Again, unless you are able to provide a photo that you own the copyright to (or that you can document is in the public domain), we will not be able to add one to the author's profile.

Muhaimin Safaruddin (muhaiminsafar) | 13 comments No, I don't. That is truly my own photo. I just uploaded it on Imgur so that you can use it. The photo from Wikipedia before is also from the same source of our team's gallery and collection of the author's photos.

My question is, how could I prove to you that I own the copyright of the photo?

Please elaborate on your relationship with the author, and how you have these photos.

I'm currently serving as an Editor at Pustaka Permata Ummah Sdn Bhd, a book publisher which is responsible for publishing the author's books.

You can view my LinkedIn profile and our official website here:

Under our team, we have collections of photos, videos, audios, etc of the author which we keep all in our archive storage.

Hope my answers explain well. Thank you.
