Is it a literary magazine containing short stories, like this one:

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

Or more like a traditional magazine, such as Men's Health or Vogue?

It's not a short story. It's an excerpt from the author's upcoming book:

"©2014 Karen Marie Moning, excerpted from BURNED. This excerpt is from a working draft and may be different in the final book..."

Many times excerpts are released separately as previews. Kindle editions of these are kept. I'm not sure if this qualifies for keeping or not, so I a leaving it for now, until I can get a second opinion.

Should the remaining story be merged as well, and its URL removed? This URL looks unofficial and unauthorized.

As Rivka is the one who edited it, I am leaving it up to her to do anything else with it.

#892 done, but I copied the description over first and have now added the ISBN-13 to the remaining edition. I also updated the pagecount after checking with WorldCat, as I noticed both books had a slightly different one.


#893:

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

That book has been added by 10 people. It could be that that is either a short story that someone has added as a standalone, or a working title for another book. If you can find out which, then we can merge it into the correct edition.


#894 appears to have already been done.


#895 done.


#896: have merged the book into the edition with the matching ISBN-13 & cover. It appears that it's actually a paperback edition.

This book, https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3..., is coming up on my author dashboard and under my name but it is not mine. I can only assume it belongs to a different V. Foster.

900, 902, and 903 removed from your author profile. re 901, that link isn't to goodreads, but i think i got the book you wanted removed. FYI, this thread is for DELETING books, not MOVING them to another profile.

Re 882, what's the policy for apparently unofficial URL's from third parties to online stories?

[rivka, Former Moderator]

It happens to actually be an authorized ebook (hosted by a school with the author's permission). It was looked into some time ago.

As a general rule, it is safe to assume books added by or extensively edited by Goodreads staff are ok. (But not necessarily to assume they are representative of a larger policy.)

I tried to add a translated edition, but screwed up somehow. I swear I'll never try to add or edit anything again :D"

I don't believe that that edition exists in the database yet. If you start a new topic under this section we can amend the details so that they're correct, rather than starting all over again.
