I recently noticed that one of my co-author's name has been replaced by another (Lucie Desmet by Louis Desmet) on several papers available in my publication list. Is anyone aware of other similar cases and know how to get this fixed ?
See "A researcher has wrongly claimed co-authorship of my publication" in https://help.researchgate.net/hc/en-us/articles/14292798510993 for instructions how to correct this. But unlike this help page suggests, most probably it was not the other author himself who wrongly claimed authorship, but ResearchGate's automatic algorithm wrongly identified him as co-author and assigned your publications to his profile. This is a frequent problem in ResearchGate in case of similar names.
Thank you so much Wolfgang for your answer. Indeed it was most likely not the author who claimed authorship, but ResearchGate's automatic algorithm wrongly identified him as co-author and assigned your publications to his profile. Even though this might be a frequent problem in ResearchGate, the problem remains and would need to be fixed... Who's responsible?
