This is a short story that was published as bonus content in Requiem. Never been published on its own. Is it grounds for deletion?

Please delete this book. There are two of the same edition on this site. Thanks

Please delete these ones too. They are also duplicates.

Deon (deonva) | 3718 comments 223, this is a valid ISBN
I found other edition (it had partial ISBN) and combined and deleted the invlaid ISBN.

Did not combine (not sure if needed)


message 210: by lafon حمزة (new)

lafon حمزة نوفل (lafon) | 3544 comments 224-228 done. I left 227 uncombined as Doyle's page is a mess, and I'd rather not screw it up.

Lobstergirl These eds. are the same and need to be merged.

And while you're in there, this is not a real series as clearly not every edition of the book is in Chinese.

Paula (paulaan) | 7014 comments Got 230, 231

231: re series: there is precedent to use the series function to group vols of a work together. The wrong book was added for book 1 I swapped out with the single chinese vol.1 volume that is not combined correctly with the whole work.

But if another super disagrees, then they can delete

Edit: numbering is wrong as IPAD will not drag and drop on the series edit page.

Samantha (samanthafury) | 9 comments I'm having issues, some how I have four editions of the same book. I have no idea. The problem is that one edition of this book is on a lot of good lists and I'd hate to lose my place on these lists. Once we get rid of the two that are not needed and are not on any lists, is there a way to combine the last to so the book has the new cover, but it does not lose it's place on all of the lists.

I'll post the links now and add a note.

This copy is not on any lists and can be deleted.
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/10...

This copy can also please be deleted and it's not on any lists so it can go.
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/12...


This is the two good copies I would like to combine.

This one has the new cover I'd love to keep but it's not on any lists.
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/17...

This is a copy that I hope can be combined with the new cover, this edition is on lots of lists and I'd hate to lose all these lists. http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/94...


If anyone could help me I sure would appreciate it. I have no clue how this happened, and I would love to have it fixed. Thanks so much any questions or anything I can do to fix this please let me know.

I looked and looked for a way to delete some of these and then combine but I could see no way to do so.

All of those editions are valid editions. Goodreads does not delete editions that are out-of-print.

Is it possible there was an ARC edition? Both the reviews for the "paperback" refer to getting ARCs.

Found a blog that mention the ISBN the author removed from the edition.

I sent her a personal message with regards to the paperback edition and she replied that she doesn't have paperback edition available. I noticed in the log that she changed the ISBN/ISBN-13 of the entry into the Kindle ASIN so I inquired her about it and that's what she told me. Should I ask her about the ARC?

Yes.
Ask if the ARC was print or digital? Probably a good idea to ask what that ISBN actually goes to.

Ok. I've asked her about the ARC. Currently waiting for her reply.


message 234: by Samantha (new)

Samantha (samanthafury) | 9 comments I'm sorry to speak again, I'm sure you all are busy and over worked, but I don't understand. This book is not out of print it's current. Somehow I have four identical books up, only one of them has the current book cover. Is there anyway that I can delete the old cover.

I don't want any images of the old cover out there it will only confuse people.

Thanks for any solution's.

Re: 254

The out-of-print rules apply because your old cover is out-of-print and we do not remove those editions.

At one point your book existed with that cover. If someone purchased an edition of your book with the old cover and has it on their shelves at home they will want to add that edition to their shelves on Goodreads.

Your four editions are all valid and correct per Goodreads policy.

You have the original Kindle Edition with the ASIN, the Kindle Edition with the new cover, the paperback edition and the Nook edition with the 294# as the ISBN.

If you have also released the new cover in Paperback and as an e-book outside of the Kindle we can create new editions with that information, but I'd recommend starting a new thread if you want help with that since it's a bit off topic for this thread. ;)

This page just seems to be all wrong - it's A Private Affair and I don't know who first added it without the correct title, but I combined the editions, this one just needs deleting.

Cristina (lessnoise) | 10 comments Hello!

I would like to ask a superlibrarian to delete the extra editions of a book. They are exact copies since the book has only been published once.

This is the original addition that has to stay on goodreads: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

And these are the clones that should be deleted:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
