Nina Levine (ninalevine) | 4 comments Hi!

This is my book link (there is nothing wrong with it, just showing it to you): https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

And this is a double up I just discovered tonight, and it has been attributed to the wrong Nina Levine also. It needs to be deleted please: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

689: done except the third one - different title?
690-691 done
693: is this really the same book? It has a different title and only one third of the number of pages of the other editions it is linked with?

it's the sub-title not a different one.

It's a wrong title and wrong number of pages.

I sure am coming across alot of these books that readers add without any other details. It'd be halfway okay if they weren't books that aren't already in the database.

Linda (lindalanz) | 159 comments Please delete this incomplete entry:

It's has the same ISBN as this:

More by the same user. Perhaps she needs a PM regarding only adding books that aren't already in database or search by isbn or something.

Please combine editions with the correct one(s) before posting them for deletion in this thread.

lafon حمزة نوفل (lafon) | 3544 comments Do remember to separate and combine as necessary before posting here. It makes it a lot easier. Also, with Giveaways, it's best not to fiddle too much with those while the giveaways are in progress.

735-744 done.

Becca Ritchie (beccaritchie) | 15 comments Superlibrarian, I need your help! Someone made an incorrect edition of my book (Addicted to You) found here: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... It says it's 188 pages. It's not. It's an ebook edition, but we already have an ebook edition of our book posted. It needs to be deleted. Can you use your magical powers to do so??

When it was combined with the 6 correct editions, my Author Dashboard completely messed up. Over a hundred people were currently reading the book. Now it says there is negative 5 people reading it??

Thank you!!

I'm not sure about "The Full Work" versus "Full literature". Are they different, or a mistitle?

Your books look like they were previously published on Smashwords. Was this particular cover ever used for the Smashwords edition?

When it is a completely blank book except for title/author, combine into the full work. That doesn't require a specific edition to be merged into.

If, however, it contains a truncated ISBN, specific format, page numbers, or other specific info, separate it with the edition it most closely matches.

No, the ebook that's already up there (and has the correct page numbers) is the Smashwords edition. The 7th new edition that someone added (w/ 188 pages) literally does not exist.


message 739: by Ana (new)

Ana Campanha (anacampanha) | 1 comments This book doesn't exist, please delete it. It is being displayed as a kindle edition but Kindle books are just from Amazon and this one is from a brazilian publisher.
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

Also, there is already a page for the real book here, where it is properly combined with all the other editions:

it's a mistitle

***SUPER LIBRARIAN*** Please delete these two. It is my property but ISBN-13 was accidentally placed into ISBN slot, needs cover photo added and other information updated properly. I will create a new file for it once these are deleted. Thank you.

Becca Ritchie (beccaritchie) | 15 comments Just a reminder, no one has helped me yet. I'd really, really appreciate it if a superlibrarian could delete this random edition that someone made: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

It's starting to mess up the stats of my book since someone combined it to the other editions. Thanks! :)

Juan (juanramos) | 4 comments Please delete this book:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

It's a duplicate with wrong data of:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

I combined both of them but since I don't have superlibrarian rights now I'm unable to finish the merging process by myself.
Thanks!

Emy (emypt) | 5037 comments Two which might need staff (almost 2.5k adds)

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
&
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6...

Both records for entire series, to be merged into book one. Haven't combined as I'm a bit worried that if they get added into the pile the whole lot will be ineditable (currently wading in there...).

Have found box sets for 1-5, and 6-10 but not one for all 12, just second hand private sales through Amazon.

Also getting timeouts / "unexpected error" on this one:

Yolani Please delete:

www.goodreads.com/book/edit/18854747-... with ISBN 9760620415927, ISBN should be 9780620415927. This addition should also be linked to The Shack.
