Needs to be deleted (merged with most shelved edition). Bad ISBN, "9789061357909" should be "9780061357909".

Barney (namelessone) | 2 comments These two should be merged:

http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/14...

http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/15...

I think the first one should survive, the info it has is much better, including a cover, pagecount, a full description, etc. The second one also has a tiny mistake in the title, the book cover itself reads "Mr Norell", not "Mr. Norell".

Thank you.

Got 826. Re 827, that's a GR Author merge, which has its own thread, but I got it.

Beth (bethjustbeth) | 1568 comments Got 833-835. 836 appears to be a valid entry; it brings back a result on Amazon.


message 821: by vicki_girl (new)

vicki_girl | 2764 comments Actually, I think it is one of those used books that got assigned an ASIN. The few details that are available match the info for the book club edition.

Koenraad (koenraadkelemen) | 6989 comments Please merge

Rosemary | 44 comments I think this is an unnecessary duplicate. If so it needs a super to delete

message 828: by vicki_girl (last edited Oct 16, 2012 09:09AM) (new)

vicki_girl | 2764 comments RE 843, it may be an alternate cover edition, as the coloring of the letters for the authors name are different.

Re 844, it looks like this was alternate cover edition as well, which rivka has fixed.

Ibrahim (ibrasho) | 4 comments Anyone willing to do 795? :-)


message 835: by lafon حمزة (last edited Oct 16, 2012 03:18PM) (new)

lafon حمزة نوفل (lafon) | 3544 comments 850 done.
For 795, seeing as it is actually 11 physical volumes I personally would separate the editions out, and keep the series. Before I do anything however, one of the supers more familiar with series/multi-volume books might want to chip in.


message 836: by vicki_girl (new)

vicki_girl | 2764 comments If they were only sold as a single set, they should be combined into one entry. If the volumes could be bought individually, then they should be kept as separate entries.


message 837: by Ibrahim (new)

Ibrahim (ibrasho) | 4 comments The book "البداية والنهاية" has over 40 editions, while in reality they are all 7 or 8 editions -each sold as a set AFAIK-, but each volume has its own entry.

The policy is to merge and keep an entry for each edition?

Sorry that I started a discussion in this topic. :-(

lafon حمزة نوفل (lafon) | 3544 comments Ibrahim wrote: "Sorry that I started a discussion in this topic"

Not a problem. We've had a few before.

Going by what I know of these authors and the way they're published, I'm willing to say that they aren't going to be sold as single books. I'll separate each edition, and hold off on the merge for a little while just in case.

Done.

Edward (CubBC) | 6 comments Looking for a super-librarian to delete this retail display. It is not the book but someone has added it to their "want to read" shelf.

Tailtiu | 505 comments http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/16... needs to be repaired or deleted.
It's the free book "Surrender Your Booty" part 3 of the Lover-series http://www.goodreads.com/series/88946... by author Rae Smith.

Gryph Daley | 128 comments Working on #860 :)

UPDATE: I first searched WorldCat for this entry and had no results on the ISBN-13 as listed in the record nor to a combo of the author and title. A google search of the author & title returns links to Smashwords, where it states that this book is no longer published by them.

@Tailtiu ... do you have any further info on this book so that the record can be completed?


message 845: by vicki_girl (new)

vicki_girl | 2764 comments I partially repaired, and will be notifying staff.

Looking at the author's page, and the blog entry there, it appears she pulled it from publication at Smashwords. However, it was available for a short time as people have read and reviewed it.

Greetings vicki_girl :)

Yep ... saw that info. While I'm thinking about it, is there a reason (or more) why the ISBN-13 didn't show up on WorldCat?


message 848: by vicki_girl (new)

vicki_girl | 2764 comments Worldcat includes items that are listed in libraries around the world (with a little bit of info from other places). Therefore, since it was an ebook on Smashwords, it is very unlikely that a library purchased it, especially since it appears that it was only available for a few days.
