While most will happily do so, especially if the requestor mentions this is needed, it seems to me that the librarian making the request might also come back and check after the deletion is done. The combines don't need supers, after all.

(only one other edition for merge)

PS - I'm always surprised if a super does the re-combine to be honest as I feel that's my job :)

lafon حمزة نوفل (lafon) | 3544 comments Got it. To be honest, I feel so weird leaving a book uncombined. It's like leaving a job unfinished. The only time I leave it is if it's a language I'm not comfortable with.

Ditto here.

Moloch | 3975 comments Please delete this

ISBN does not exist anywhere else, it's a duplicate of the other edition combined

Also this one
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/12...
and this one
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/12...

are all duplicates (with wrong data) of an edition without ISBN

Thanks

Cristina Sburlea (cristinamsburlea) | 12 comments this book cover http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/17...
does not match the book covers on any other websites (for example: https://www.smashwords.com/books/view...)

Rebecca (hobbitual_reader) | 16 comments This book is incorrect

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

The correct edition is Destiny Rising

Jane (beautifulshell) | 5 comments I believe this entry is incorrect: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/12...

It seems to be a version of http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/60...

Beth (bethjustbeth) | 1568 comments 703: Done

704: Contacting the author to see if that's an incorrect cover, or alternate cover.

705: Appears to be correct, except for the title, which is now correct. It has a unique isbn, which returns to this title, so no deletion has been made.

706: Merged.

707: Merged.

Shannon (theholyterror) | 87 comments I don't believe this was ever published.

http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/13...

I can't find any info besides what we already have and one Canadian site even lists a 2035 release date.

I don't think Knopf ever published the one we have listed. I checked their site and there's no mention of it.

Steven Dowell (stevendowell) | 1 comments I am an author of a book I would like to have deleted. The title is A White Man's view of Blacks in America Today. How can I get this book deleted?


message 683: by Emy (new)

Emy (emypt) | 5037 comments Re #727

Goodreads does not remove un-published or out of print books from the database. Think of it as a library, not a bookseller. Users may have already read your book and wish to review it. They should be able to keep record of that even is the book is no longer available. Please also note that even if it was deleted, any user could simply re-add it to the database.

Louise Payne (LouisePayneUK) hello,

I am currently re-branding my publications and wanting to upload them onto goodreads yet i have noticed that both of my books are listed on goodreads with the incorrect information, titles and covers. I am guessing that people have just uploaded what they thought to be the correct information. Please can both these books be deleted/taken down? Is that even possible?

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

I thank you in advance.


message 685: by Emy (new)

Emy (emypt) | 5037 comments Louise, please see #728 above. If you believe that your titles are an exception, you can contact Support for them to look into it. Alternatively post in a separate thread for us to investigate.


message 686: by Louise (new)

Louise Payne (LouisePayneUK) Thank you for that Emy, is there a way that these titles can be edited if I send 'whoever' the correct covers and titles?


message 687: by Emy (new)

Emy (emypt) | 5037 comments Louise, yes, thatr should be possible. Start a new thread, but bear in mind that if they ever existed as shown now, they will need to remain that way and a new record needs to be created for the current permutation of the title(s).

I would like only the second edition to be available as this edition shows out of stock.

If you wish it to show FIRST, this is something you can set yourself as the author, but I would advise leaving alone until your giveaway has finished as record alterations can affect them.

It is a duplicate of http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/15... (I moved the isbn information to the correct release which was fine but missing the isbns before)
