Marcelo A. de A. (emeponto) | 2 comments I (should) have librarian status and (I guess?) I should be able to do this myself, but for some reason Goodreads isn't allowing me. So, can someone please combine the following editions:

http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/17... (brazilian portuguese)
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/16... (brazilian portuguese)
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/58... (spanish)
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/17... (russian? something in cyrillic)
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/15... (english)

Thank you! :)

message 259: by novoten (new)

novoten | 13 comments I'm sorry but http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/49... and http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/10... are not the same book. Both has quite similar plot about a man who emigrated to USA but main character has different name. In Shadows in Paradise it's Robert Ross and in Geloste Land it's Ludwig Sommer. These two should be separated, thank you.


message 260: by Empress (new)

Empress (the_empress) 265 - I separated them. If 'Das Gelobte Land' has any other editions, please post here.

Momentisimo | 3 comments Hello, I'm new here and perhaps you have already discussed the issue, I have, but what do you do when combining different translations and listing the author's name in different language?
Thanks,

Thats fine, The author will have two profiles in the two languages. When you combine the books just filter by the name of the book. If you can't, you can temporary change the author's name so its the same, filter by name and then change again.

message 264: by Momentisimo (new)

Momentisimo | 3 comments I am wondering whether it is possible to "combine" different author names the same way, we combine different editions.

Yes, here it is explained how, but usually profiles in different languages are not combined.



---------------------------------
To merge two author profiles, edit the data for the profile that should be discarded, and change the name to be the exact same spelling (copy/pasting helps here) of the profile that it should be merged into.

To combine, the primary author should be the author in the original language then in the language on the cover, etc.

Evie (ocarina) | 139 comments Hello,

Could someone please combine these editions:

http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/17...

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

Also, the 1978 edition I just created has an ISBN of 9780307104519, which is the same as Just A Baseball Game by Gina and Mercer Mayer. Do ISBNs get reused sometimes?

message 274: by Hilmi (new)

Hilmi Isa (hilmiisa) Hi! Please combine this http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/17... into http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/94...
The former is a mass-market paperback edition for the latter (hardcover edition). The mass-market paperback edition's cover is correct.
Thank you for helping me. :)

message 277: by Bea (new)

Bea #279 - I started working on this list from the end. I have run into two issues that I was not sure of.

The last list of three books (Roadfood). One book has Michael's name first and would need to have Jane's first in order to combine.

The eighth list of three books from the end (BJ Summer's Guide to Coca-Cola). This book has several revisions all with title changes. I combined the same titles but did not know if revised editions got combined with the originals when the title is different.


message 278: by Bea (new)

Bea #279 - I was also unable to combine those two editions as I could not find them both on the same combine page.

Would you please combine these two?

The second one is a new edition of the first, published last month.

Thanks in advance.

Kind regards.

Hana (hana273) | 3 comments Hi, I added this edition (http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/17...) of this book (http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/17...) Can you combine them, please?

Also, I have uploaded the cover image several times, but it seems to automatically rotate by 90 degrees on goodreads... Any suggestions on resolving this issue?

Thank you

I saw two more editions. Take a look if I need to separate them.
