message 408: by Sofie (new)

Sofie Peschardt Hi!
So, I added this book I am currently reading because it is brand new (and also danish), and therefore it is not on here yet.
I just found out, however, that I misspelled the title - I know, right? Not the brightest thing to do ...
Anyways, it is this book: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
"21 måder at dø" (meaning 21 ways to die) is what it is really called. I accidentally put on the extra "på".
The correct title is "21 måder at dø", and I don't know if it is in any way possible just to change that, or if you could just delete it altogether and I could make a new one.
A little help would be much appreciated, thanks!
Best regards Sofie.

Combined 419. (FYI, both valid editions, so they needed editing and combining, not deletion/merging.)

Andrea (andrea_b) | 571 comments trying to merge https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... (no isbn) into the other Spanish edition but either it's really really slow or it's not working for some reason... (+ recombine with A Certain Slant of Light)

That's odd. You should be able to do it, as it's only got 3 adds - the limit before it requires a super is 5. But I just tried it and it's still showing both editions there - normally when I click on the link it should switch to showing the book it's been merged into! Looks like we'll require Rivka or one of the other staff to look into it.


message 419: by Melody (new)

Melody (runningtune) | 13300 comments I have noticed that things are not deleting or merging. You get a message saying it will be deleted - but then 39 minutes later it is still there. I tried the above and got a message I was successful - but the extra edition is still not merged.


message 420: by Lisa (new)

Lisa | 1 comments I found a duplicate version of the book "The Elite" - initially it had the title partially wrong and the author's name backwards so I corrected it and then closed the tab and then immediately afterwards realized that it was probably a bad version that needed to be deleted. I'm pretty sure this is the edition that needs to be removed (it has already been merged with other editions):

Moloch | 3975 comments I don't know why, but this duplicate

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

is taking forever to get deleted (now it has -4 shelvings?)

Please can some superlibrarian take care of it and then recombine with https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4...

Thanks

Yes, I got the "That edition will be deleted shortly. 3 reviews will be merged." message and the edition that I want to delete is still there...

Andrea (andrea_b) | 571 comments There's an edition of "Breaking Dawn part 2" that was listed with an author name typo (fixed that), but the book wasn't released in 2 parts -- the movies were. Should it be merged with the main book?

Seems reasonable.


message 428: by Tez (new)

Tez (tezmilleroz) | 4 comments Please delete this: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... This is a listing for a third book in a series, and the author has informed that there will not be a third: "Goodreads has got it wrong. Just the two!"

Thank you.

message 434: by Miaisageek (new)

Miaisageek I just realised (when trying to add the ASIN) that I accidentally created a duplicate - could someone please help by deleting it (assuming that's what you do with duplicates not referenced by anyone)?

Duplicate: H.P. Lovecraft The Complete Collection

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

I still think there might be something weird with the original, though, since I [apparently] didn't find it when I searched before adding my own. Also it didn't show up in the list just now when I used the "add book/author" link in order to find and insert a reference to it.

Thanks so much and happy weekends to all :)

Henrilefoll | 1 comments please delete : Jesus Video (French Edition)
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...

it has no isbn and it is the same as
Jésus video (Paperback)

I have separated those two books so that a superlibrarian can do it easily.

Thanks


message 441: by ah li (new)

ah li | 61 comments hi,
can a superlibrarian delete this version of the book as there is an exactly a same copy of the book and this book is not rated

message 446: by Moloch (new)

Moloch | 3975 comments Please remember that there still seems to be a problem with book deletions: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

Are we sure that if you delete now, the deletions and merges are going to be effective? I still can see the book in post #447, for example.
Maybe it's better to wait for news from rivka about the fix?

I'm personally waiting for it to be fixed, then am planning to check back from my marker (if no one else does that in the mean time). Deletions still don't appear to be working for me.

Please delete this book, I did create it by mistake, it was supposed to be just another edition of existing book


message 450: by Susie (new)

Susie (dragonsusie) | 2469 comments Leaving a note here that this book needs deleting and merging into the other Kindle edition once the delete is working again:
