June Stevens (curvywriter) | 3 comments I need this book removed. It was originally contracted by a small publisher, didn't go to print as the publisher closed, I was going to self-pub under my own company, but decided to submit it to some other publishers. I need it taken DOWN pending a new contract. (I am a librarian, but not super...so couldn't do it myself.) http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/17...

The problem with that is not the review, which is yours, so we can ignore it but that there are two authors listed, both on Goodreads, but you are not listed on the cover. I think the primary author, June Stevens, needs to make that request.

Um...June Stevens is D.J. Westerfield, it's a pseudonym

OK. I knew that. Sort of. Not. OK, book gone, no reviews lost. Sorry.

It would have been easier if the request had been made using the relevant Goodreads author profile.

I would have handled it, but phones are not good for editing.

Krazykiwi | 1767 comments Sorry to write you an essay, but not entirely sure I've checked all avenues (but yes, I did check Amazon this time :)

They are labelled Castaways in Time 15, 27, 30 and 33 - this series had only 6 books and Robert Adams died shortly after the 6th, so even if they exist he didn't write them. There's no trace of intervening books, and none of these have been shelved other than as to-read. The ISBN's give no result at isbndb and lead to similar listings to ours on other book db sites, probably from the same source we got them from (onix).

THANK YOU. And sorry. This is my primary account and the one that is a librarian, and since both names are on it, I didn't think. THANKS AGAIN!

I agree. There is no sign any of them ever existed and after all this time they never will. No reviews etc so I would say they can go.

Betsy | 605 comments I think this books is an absolute duplicate and can be deleted.

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

I believe it's a duplicate of this one:

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

There are at least two Peter Grants in the system and this one has two spaces. I fixed it for the duplicate book, but didn't combine, because I realized it was probably a dup.

Alta Cloete Could you please remove this book? http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/17...
The current publisher has closed and the new publisher wants the book removed, before they start its publicity from scratch.
Thank you!

Alta was it ever published by the previous publisher? Were any ARCs sent out?

Yes, it was! Not sure what ARCs are?


message 496: by lafon حمزة (last edited Sep 02, 2013 11:10AM) (new)

lafon حمزة نوفل (lafon) | 3544 comments ARC stands for Advance Review Copy. One if the many acronyms we have. I have a hard time keeping them all straight.

If it was ever published then we can't delete it from the database, nor would any of the previous metadata be removed (cover image, publish date etc.) but you can mark it as unpublished.

ETA: Here is the relavent help file: http://www.goodreads.com/help/show/32...
