Andrea (andrea_b) | 571 comments Please merge:
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/10... with http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/12...

and also
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/47... with
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/13... (same ISBN in 10/13 in both)

also, this one (http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/10...) should probably be merged with one of the audiobooks? (it has no other details)
thanks!

Some one had split ISBN's between editions in order to attach a slightly different cover.

One has a silver banner in the corner the other gold

Andrea (andrea_b) | 571 comments Please merge this one
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/15... with this one http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/43... (missing final digit of ISBN10)

and this one http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/10... with
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/15... (both alt. covers for the ebook edition)

Also delete this one http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/15... (for some reason has the movie poster as the cover)
into this edition http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/13... (the movie tie-in edition)

also delete this one http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/15... (this has the mockup cover) into http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/16... (the actual published edition with ISBN) and then combine into the main edition of Perks (I separated but then noticed that the book'd been shelved too many times)

thanks!

Scratch that. My internet connection is acting up, and I don't want to cause problems. Only the alt-cover merge is needed. The rest have been finished.

Re: #370

Greetings Deon,

There are two kindle editions listed with different page totals. The one you listed (375 p) and http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/15837631-the-last-bastion-of-the-living (283 p).

Which is the correct is which is to be deleted?

Re: #371

I've separated the two books from their parent combine but can't delete the duplicate edition and re-combine the merge bc the incorrect edition has more than 5 reviews. SL needed to finish the job pls :)

Henning (henningbw) This is not a specific edition; it has no isbn or simlar.

It isn't an alternate cover edition. There is no 2008 edition. The link you visited even says 2000. It's the same edition added twice; once with errors.

http://www.cappelendamm.no/main/katal...
Check the link again. Compare cover, isbn and date. There's only one version, and it's from 2000.

The one I've linked to (and want deleted) had the same isbn as the other, with just one higher value (fake). It had a link to the 2000 version, but said 2008 (the rest of the date was identical), it had added "paperback" with text instead of selected it from options. There are many indications that the person adding it has tried to add the 2000 version, but has been ignorant of how Goodreads works.

The blue cover you assumed was the "first" paperback cover actually belongs to the hardcover edition (which I've now added). It's not relevant.

I have fixed and updated everything else. Now, please delete this: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/51...

Merging this one http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/10... with
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/15... (both alt. covers for the ebook edition) is still pending...

Greetings Liana :)

I deleted the 1st one, but the 2nd needs a Super Librarian due to the number of reviews.

lafon حمزة نوفل (lafon) | 3544 comments 394 done. C-Cose that's primarily the reason why people post in this thread — so that a super can deal with the merge. Laina there is precedence where we have left an unpublished book in the system if people have added it so I'm gonna leave it for someone *cough*rivka*cough* more familiar with manuscripts and such.

Or this one. I note also that this is the sole work by which you have claimed Goodreads Author status.


message 396: by Tristina (new)

Tristina (tristinawright) Can you remove this book? It's my unpublished manuscript. If you need to remove my author status, please do so. I was misinformed by another party.

The book, whether it has been published yet or not, has reviews. We do not generally delete to-be-published works with reviews.

I understand that and have contacted the reviewers to take down their reviews. This manuscript isn't even close to "to-be-published" (as much as I wish that were the case). It's one I am querying and if agents or small press see this, it appears as a self pub with no sales. This was added without my knowledge by a beta reader. Thanks for your help.


message 399: by Tamara (new)

Tamara Mataya (tamaramataya) | 6 comments I am in the same boat as Tristina. My manuscript was added without my knowledge by a beta reader. I would like my VERY rough, UNAGENTED manuscript to be removed please. I've spoken to my critique partner who is the sole reviewer and she will be removing her review.


I understand if this removes my author status. I am fine with that, as I have nothing anywhere close to publication.

Please remove this: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/15...


message 400: by Lobstergirl (new)

Lobstergirl What is with these beta readers adding manuscripts and reviews? Authors, maybe you should have your beta readers sign a release stating they will not publicize or review the unpublished manuscript on any public forum.
