message 204: by Plethora (new)

Plethora (bookworm_r) | 359 comments I'm not sure what should be done with this entry:
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/18...

It was given an ASIN and labeled as a hardback book. This ASIN didn't come up on Amazon's site.

Not sure if it should be a merger, an alternate cover of something or ???? It currently isn't merged with the other editions of the book.

Here is the other editions of the book: http://www.goodreads.com/work/edition...

There is this one book listed by Saul Bellows. His name is Bellow, without the s.

Plethora (bookworm_r) | 359 comments re msg: 214 (216)

If its a hardback book according to the site linked in Msg 216, it shouldn't have an ASIN but an ISBN.

Based on what little information is on the current book page as linked in Msg 214 can it be merged with this book on GR? http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/12...

As the Amazon.co.uk site for this hardback edition with matching cover has Sphere 2012 as publisher matching what little is on current GR entry?
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Hawk-Quest-Ro...

Or does the ASIN just get removed and it combined with the other books as another edition?

Edited .... I linked .com book instead of co.uk book

Sam Honeycutt (sdh60406L) | 2 comments When I tried to input a book that has been misrepresented to be by Elton John I was not allowed to. How do I get to input the correct meta information for the book, 'Pope John XXIII, Essential Writing?'
This book is by Pope John XXIII, edited by Jean Maalouf.
I tried to input all of the information on this Orbis book.
Elton John had nothing to do with it as far as I know.

Thanks.

Now I have another question. The cover for my book "The Pale Hand of God" reverted to an older cover. How can I change it back to the appropriate cover?

message 213: by Deanna (new)

Deanna Miller | 12 comments There is a duplicate listing of my paperback that has the wrong ISBN and three authors listed (should be just one). I tried merging them, but it didn't work. And the system won't let me correct the ISBN or delete the extra authors. Could a librarian please delete the duplicate? Here it is:

Thanks very much.

Sylvie (sylview) | 189 comments This mis-entered

edition should be deleted and merged with the correct ISBN edition (I've separated).

Then recombined with the other Olycksfågeln editions.

Deon (deonva) | 3718 comments re: 223, this is a valid ISBN
I removed other authors


message 216: by Deanna (new)

Deanna Miller | 12 comments Re: 223
Thanks. The ISBN is not valid. It was going to be Booklocker's ISBN for the paperback, but it was immediately replaced with my own ISBN after the book's printing. New ISBN stickers were placed on the back cover. Long story, but Booklocker's POD service could not produce good printouts of the book's photos, so Booklocker said I could do a small print run at a printer of my choice. After the printing, Booklocker told me that since the printing was not through their POD service, I needed to get a new ISBN of my own. I registered the paperback under the new ISBN, and rather than spending $5,000+ on a new small print run, I bought new ISBN stickers.


message 217: by Sylvie (new)

Sylvie (sylview) | 189 comments This:

Marcelo (cimmeria) | 1 comments This book: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/12...

...is a duplicate. There's already another one, with much more complete information, as an edition of this book: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/12...

By the way, would there be a way to combine them?

message 229: by Deanna (new)

Deanna Miller | 12 comments Re: 223 and 226

To clarify, there is only one edition of the paperback, and it's this one:

http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/20...

That is the only ISBN that was registered with Books in Print. I'm the publisher, not Booklocker, but I'd prefer to leave the publisher field blank. The Booklocker ISBN was never used and never registered.

So, if someone could please delete this duplicate with the incorrect ISBN, I'd really appreciate it:

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

Thanks very much for your help.


message 231: by Koenraad (new)

Koenraad (koenraadkelemen) | 6989 comments #236: corrected titles, added info & Portuguese blurb. The first one could be an alternate cover edition of the second, but since I could not locate an ISBN I just combined it with the others.

Alysa H. | 19 comments This is my first post to the group, please forgive me if it's not in the right place (or I'm doing something else wrong)

To Superlibrarians -

Please delete this book:
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/16...

It is a duplicate of this (correct) book:
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/15...


message 238: by Deon (new)

Deon (deonva) | 3718 comments 247 done

Alysa, this is the correct group
next time you can just seperate out the correct edition with the one to be deleted.
when the one is deleted the reviews will move over the correct edition.

Thanks!
I tried that, actually, but it said I couldn't delete due to the number of reviews (it looked like there were only 3, but perhaps it was counting ratings too?)


message 240: by Alysa (new)

Alysa H. | 19 comments Aha - Also, it appears that the Kindle edition (ASIN: B00A73QG5I) has been deleted somehow. That wasn't me...

Lenore (xlenorex) | 9 comments Please delete this book:

It is a duplicate of this edition:
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/11...

I'm also kindly requesting that this ^^ edition be separated (unmerged) from this one:
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/18...

which is the official edition of the book. The author does not wish them to be merged.

Thank you!
