R.J. Roder | 3 comments I have somehow created two accounts for my author pen name R.J. Roder (also listed as RJ Roder). I have book reviews under both names. I would like to consolidate under one of the two names but retain the reviews/ratings. Can you please assist.

Author R.J. Roder
Rise of Metal (with reviews/ratings)
Necessary Evils (no reviews/ratings)

Author RJ Roder
Rise of Metal (no reviews/ratings)
Necessary Evils (with reviews/ratings)

Can I move the reviews/ratings under RJ Roder then delete the other account?

Regards,
Rick

The other page didn’t have any followers, so I moved the editions to your page. The editions are moved with all the information and ratings and reviews in them. There’s no need to contact support. In the future, please provide links to the relevant profiles and books with all requests. That other profile will disappear on its own since it doesn’t have any books in it. It wasn’t a claimed profile.

Any new book will be imported to that other profile, as that's the name you have on Amazon, and it will need to be moved to your profile here on Goodreads. When that happens, please post a request in this group.

R.J. Roder | 3 comments Good afternoon, I have somehow messed up the account again and changed the name to RJ. Rode. Can someone please change it back to RJ Roder.
