How do I correct my author profile details in Engineering Village?
Last updated on March 16, 2026
You can request corrections to author details for articles in the Compendex database in Engineering Village. You will be directed to make the change through the Author Feedback Wizard in Scopus.
Note: Corrections for author details are limited to authors within Compendex records. Engineering Village cannot request corrections for other databases at this time.
You can make the following changes to your author profile:
- Set your preferred author name
- Update an incorrect or outdated affiliation
Follow these steps to request changes to author details:
- Run an Author search. The Author search results page opens.
- Find your profile name and click ‘View Scopus Author Profile.’ The corresponding Author details page in Scopus opens.
- Sometimes you may experience a glitch where you are sent to a Scopus search page instead of the Scopus Author details page.
- If this happens, close the Scopus tab. The Engineering Village Author results page opens.
- Click the ‘View Scopus Author Profile’ link in Engineering Village. The Scopus Author details page opens.
- From the Scopus Author details page, click ‘Edit profile.’ The ‘Is this your own profile?’ page opens.
- From this pop-up page, select whether this is your author profile or are requesting changes on behalf of someone else.
Click ‘Cancel’ to stop this operation or ‘Continue’ to access the next page. The Author Feedback Wizard opens.
- From the Author Feedback Wizard, select ‘Author details.’
- From the Preferred name dropdown, select the desired name format of the author.
- From the Current organization dropdown, select the desired affiliation.
- Select the ‘Review changes’ button at the bottom of the page.
Select ‘Submit request’ to submit the change for review or ‘Continue editing’ to return to the Author Feedback Wizard to make more changes.
Note: Changes are not immediate and will not appear in Engineering Village or within the Author Feedback Wizard until processing has been completed.
