the problem is that one member already shelved it.

Actually i can't. Because that member is not active anymore. He shelved just one book, and inactive since December 2011.

Btw, Looking at the data sources; book only have author and title information, and they are entered by a Deleted User.

Since this author is the founder of my country, i am pretty sure that he doesn't have such a book. Someone just entered this book as a placeholder for something else, or he was just trying to learn how to add books.

Re 253 - deleted, could not find mention of book and it looks very much like a test

[Nenangs]

maybe.
for me it feels rude to just delete book(s) from somebody's shelf without trying to ask him/her first.
*shrug*

got 255

[Stela]

Please delete this book:

which is identical to this one:

Thank you

zap!

[Andrea]

please merge http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/95... into http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/75... (there was some confusion with covers and alternate editions a while back, but it was fixed)

Not sure exactly what should be done with this one:

http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/11...

It seems to have been two hardcover books sold on Amazon Marketplace (for some reason marked as audio casettes?):

http://www.amazon.com/The-Diaries-Fam...

Since the entry needs rescuing, but the only relevant info is on Amazon, I'm no sure how to proceed. Quite a few people have shelved it as well.

This ISBN comes up as a VHS tape.

[Debbie's Spurts (D.A.)]

http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/16... needs super.

other than an incorrectly spelled title and having partial author credits (I noticed when marking some of author's books for myself) this 6-person shelving book has no other information and was probably a pre-release member addition of now released book.

[lafon حمزة]

So, 268 done, and 269 looks like a re-used ISBN for VHS and a book.

[lafon حمزة]

265 done, 270 done. I've separated 264 out, but I'll leave the merge to another super. For some reason I'm getting timeouts on the edit page.

[Stela]

Please also delete this:

Finished up 264; got 273.

For a time we were getting imports from Amazon for everything with an ASIN, not just Kindle books. I think that is a leftover from that bad import. I think we could merge it with the first in the series.

[Stela]

This one, also:

because it's a double of this one:

A quick thanks to Debbie and Rivka for their answers and explanations yesterday. I do appreciate it!

[Sandra]

Need a super to delete this no info edition :)

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

[Krystal109]

http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/75...

It's the cover for the weekly print version (basically a magazine of manga that is released weekly until the manga is complete).

[Cait]

Got 285 & 286.

[Sandra]

Thanks Cait ;)

[Krystal109]

http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/91...

This is titled "Milk Shake (Series)". Not an actual book.

[Sandra]

That cover appears to be for Milk Shake 2, but cannot be switched over as it is the default for Milk Shake 1, even if it has no info, it still has plenty of ratings.

Super needed :)

[Debbie's Spurts (D.A.)]

For 289, No, I think that's just a Manga. #1 in series is titled "series #1", #2 title will be series #2" and so so on, particularly for the non-English editions.

[vicki_girl]

It was a placeholder for the whole series. Krystal combined it so it could be merged with the first in the series, per policy. I have zapped it.

[Debbie's Spurts (D.A.)]

Gr cross posting delays; there was no 290 post when I responded to 289 and when I looked at books were already fixed apparently. I think I'm stopping tonight. Lots of odd errors and delays editing books, refreshing ratings, combining...

[Oni]

I am having problem with these twos:
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/91...
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/91...

Maybe it is place holder made by fans.

But since the author, Harry Harrison has passed away, I assume we can delete them.

Thanks vicki. I knew you'd get what I was doing there.

I think this book should be deleted: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/12...

It only has a partial isbn and seems to be a duplicate entry for this edition:
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/25...

[Sandra]

I think instead the correct ISBN should be found, if possible. WorldCat shows many editions in French for 2004 by that publisher and it shows a different cover.

The correct ISBN seems to be 9782290357248. Its first digits have been used as the isbn of the book I think should be deleted. What do you think?

[✘✘ Sarah ✘✘ (former Nefarious Breeder of Murderous Crustaceans)]

No isbn or publisher:

Looks like a match, however, it has a different cover so should be made into an alternate cover edition.

[Filipa]

This edition is repeated, can you please delete it?

Thanks!

[vicki_girl]

Re #296, deleted bad ISBN and marked as Alternate Cover Edition.

Got #299.

[vicki_girl]

Re #301, both editions have a valid ISBN. We do not delete editions with valids ISBNs. I have combined the edition you linked with the others.
