As have I.

Sounds good to me."


Good to know.

Otherwise 407-410, done.

Irena Milanova (irzhi) | 104 comments Fellow librarians, help needed here again! :)
This one -> http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/16... (which I saw too late to edit and which lacks so much info) is a duplicate of this -> http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/16...

And I can't understand, is this one -> http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/10... a second edition of the same book or just a duplicate of this -> http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/12... If so, PLEASE delete! Many thanks! :)

Got them both

Fran (narflet) | 129 comments Super needed!

This edition needs deleting: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/13... as it's a duplicate of this edition: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/56...

And then it needs recombining with the rest of the editions. I'd separated and combined the two identical editions, but that's as far as I could get. Thanks!

Andrea (andrea_b) | 571 comments Please merge http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/10... and http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/96... (this one has white space on the sides of the cover image) thanks!


message 416: by Traveling Diva (new)

Traveling Diva (travelingdiva) | 372 comments Please delete this
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/15...

which has the ISBN of this edition in its edition field
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/13...

Then it can be combined back into Prisoner of Heaven

lafon حمزة نوفل (lafon) | 3544 comments 423 done.


message 419: by lafon حمزة (new)

lafon حمزة نوفل (lafon) | 3544 comments I'm leaving 421. There is something going on in the edit log, so someone with more more time will have to take a look. Also I don't believe 422 needs a merge. They have perfectly distinct ASINs.


message 420: by Traveling Diva (new)

Traveling Diva (travelingdiva) | 372 comments Sorry about 422, was just going to delete it as I noticed also they both have ASINs. Not sure how I missed that on first glance.


message 421: by Traveling Diva (new)

Traveling Diva (travelingdiva) | 372 comments 421 seems to be messed with a bit - the ISBNs were removed and the cover changed...


message 422: by Dale (new)

Dale Ibitz (goodreadscomdale_ibitz) | 14 comments Could you please delete this book? It's no longer published (I found the remaining culprit on B&N and unpublished it).

Thanks!

message 423: by Irena (new)

Irena Milanova (irzhi) | 104 comments Hi again!
Found that these two:
1. http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/61...
2. http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/21...
are exact copies of this one --> http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/61...
Please, delete them both. Thanks in advance! :)


message 424: by lafon حمزة (last edited Nov 23, 2012 08:57AM) (new)

lafon حمزة نوفل (lafon) | 3544 comments Working on 420. I'm going to swap the ISBNs over to the placeholders, as they've been added more times than the legitimate editions. Done.


message 425: by lafon حمزة (last edited Nov 23, 2012 11:19AM) (new)

lafon حمزة نوفل (lafon) | 3544 comments Dale, we do not delete legitimate books, even if they are out of print. Think of Goodreads as more of a library than a bookstore. Goodreads' aim is to have a catalouge of every book known to have been published. You may wish to read the help file on the topic.


message 426: by lafon حمزة (new)

lafon حمزة نوفل (lafon) | 3544 comments 430 done. Man that cover was so obviously from a seller site, that it was funny!

:D That was the first thing I saw! I hate those kind of seller logos over the covers SO much. >.<
You did a wonderful job!

message 429: by Moris (new)

Moris | 24 comments this two entries are duplicate:

http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/49...

and

http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/12...

please delete one without ISBN.


message 430: by lafon حمزة (new)

lafon حمزة نوفل (lafon) | 3544 comments Ka-POW! Thanks Irena, and no problem Sandra. :)


message 432: by Irena (new)

Irena Milanova (irzhi) | 104 comments Another two duplicates found! >.<
1. This: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/16... copies this --> http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/16...
2. And this --> http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/16... copies this --> http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/16... (I edited it as much, as I could)
Delete + thanks! ;)

Poldemar, are these books duplicates or they're just the first parts of a series, which are no longer available (out of print etc.)? If so, they don't need to be deleted. They need editing though. ;)

message 438: by lafon حمزة (new)

lafon حمزة نوفل (lafon) | 3544 comments 444 done. I've combined 443, but they don't seem to want to merge...


message 439: by Pamela (new)

Pamela (waterspout) | 207 comments 443 are parts of a book and by keeping them, it's like saying chapter one of book one.

No, I know why they have to be merged, I'm just saying the system won't let me do it. It keeps timing out.


message 441: by Pamela (new)

Pamela (waterspout) | 207 comments Oh okay. Thank you then. (:


message 442: by Lobstergirl (new)

Lobstergirl Super merge
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/13...
into
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/12...

(I think the image of the first one is a tad better.)


✦BookishlyRichie✦ (bookishlyrichie) | 108 comments I am the author and I need these books deleted.
They should have never been posted on GR and that
is my fault. Ever since they were posted I've lost interest in the books and to make matters worse I lost the manuscript to Hollow now that I have a new computer. Things have been going very awry lately in my life and I can say right now that these books are not coming out at all. I understand they have plenty of to-reads, especially Hollow but things happen and they will not be coming out, if they do in the FAR future I will release them free for making the readers wait for them. Thank you to whoever removes them, I understand that I should not post books that aren't complete or near completion and I will not do that again.

message 444: by Pamela (new)

Pamela (waterspout) | 207 comments Merge http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/15... with http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/12...

Quick question: are ARCs considered to be another edition?

Book merged. And yes ARCs are allowed.

message 449: by lafon حمزة (new)

lafon حمزة نوفل (lafon) | 3544 comments Richard, you should see this help file. Ignore the first part. The reason you got no response, is that librarians don't wish to go afoul of the policy, and speaking for myself I don't know how this would be fixed.
