Alina (aleenna) | 32 comments Hey,
873 (continuing in 875) has been left undone, thanks


message 852: by Dee (new)

Dee (deinonychus) | 16 comments These two books are duplicates (One had an ISBN-10, the other an ISBN-13): La Vérité sur l'Affaire Harry Quebert

One should be deleted and then merged back into the main book.
Thank you.

lethe | 16359 comments https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2... (better quality cover, wrong page count)

Please merge into https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... (more complete info, lower-resolution cover)

Thanks!

Alina (aleenna) | 32 comments Hi,
Please delete this entry, it is the same book/edition as this complete one. It also has the wrong ISBN , from an earlier edition.
Also, this entry should be deleted, it is a duplicate of this one.
I already separated them, I can mergem them back after the confirmation of deletion.

Just some info: Polirom published 3 editions:
- 2002 - ISBN 973683915X, reddish cover
- 2007 - ISBN 9789734605996, cover with blonde girl and blue butterfly
- 2011 - ISBN 9789734622320, cover black&white with red writing
All other instances from Polirom, with incomplete data, are just variants/duplicates.

Looks like someone merged and recombined them. I can't see the duplicate, this is the correct edtion and it's been recombined: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

So #905 is done.

The link in the ACE-note is for the default English edition, while this is a Turkish edition.


message 865: by Jessica (new)

Jessica (regendanser) | 95 comments There has just been a request in another thread to merge this book: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... with the other edition I already combined with it. Since I'm no superlibrarian, I'll forward it here.

Michael Korleone (michaelkorleone) | 3881 comments I think this is a duplicate: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

But I don't know to which edition it is a duplicate of. Can we merge it?

917 Merged into the most popular edition, as you could say it was a duplicate of all other editions. No need to merge it into a different edition.

Matthew Landis (matthew_landis) | 4 comments Could someone please delete this book from my author dashboard? I didn't write it - https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

Book moved to another profile; not deleted.


message 874: by Matthew (new)

Matthew Landis (matthew_landis) | 4 comments Thanks Abcdarian! You rock.


Elizabeth (Alaska) I separated out the novelization of this title, which had been the default. Now this default has no details:

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

perhaps a reverse merge is in order. It would appear the only discrepancy to be in page count - 112 vs 132; no page count for the Samuel French edition on WorldCat and Amazon has it at 122. (Why can't there ever be consensus!)


message 877: by Michael (new)

Michael Korleone (michaelkorleone) | 3881 comments #924 Covers look to be different for those two ebook editions (Sarah J. Maas and A Throne of Glass Novel are different colors). Maybe mark the duplicate as ACE?

PS
User marked page count in the "duplicate" ebook edition as 1342. Since we take page count for ebooks only from publishers, guess we should change it?

Bloomsbury US marked the page count as 576 on their site. Bloomsbury UK has the same (for a different ISBN) while Bloomsbury Aus marked the count as 656 (for a different ISBN). Duplicate edition's cover is close to the cover of Bloomsbury US ebook edition.


message 879: by Philip (new)

Philip (burnnerman) | 5912 comments #919 - Combined, not merged, since one was listed as Kindle and one as ebook. Could have changed cover that said cover reveal soon, but figured it was best to wait till author requested it changed, or it has officially been released.


message 880: by Dee (last edited Oct 14, 2015 05:21AM) (new)

Dee (deinonychus) | 16 comments {Edit} Done it myself as discovered that one of the duplicates had less than 5 ratings.


message 881: by Arenda (last edited Oct 14, 2015 05:32AM) (new)

Arenda | 26447 comments #919 only the cover is a placeholder. This Kindle edition is a valid edition, with ASIN. Removed the placeholder cover and added the actual cover from Amazon.
#923 merged into the hardcover that has 112 pages on Goodreads.
#924 marked as ACE for isbn13 9781619636057. (US hardcover and Kindle also have the yellow author name on Goodreads. Bloomsbury USA has the light blue author name for both hardcover and ebook.) Changed the pagecount for the ebook to 576 according to publisher.

Show me any proof this exists, besides goodreads? This is an extremely famous author and thus it would be a well-known book.


Elizabeth (Alaska) No details, please merge with default

The book exists. I have seen ebooks in a Google search. Whether they are valid, legal editions or something else, I don't know.

#932 done. Also merged a duplicate Kindle edition.


Elizabeth (Alaska) ISBN truncated; appears to be a duplicate of the default ISBN

thank you!


message 888: by Ben (new)

Ben | 2 comments Greetings. There's a book on my author profile that I didn't write (author has same name), AISN B00IMM9O0A. I've been trying to get it removed for several years.

The book is here:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

And I'd be delighted to see it removed from my list.

Thank you!


message 889: by Philip (last edited Oct 14, 2015 01:11PM) (new)

Philip (burnnerman) | 5912 comments #936 - Done, moved to the 2 space profile. That edition has only been on your page for 4 months not years.

Reason is that it was a new import, and since you claimed the single space profile, all imported books by authors with your name will go into your profile. Just request it and we will move them.

BTW, since you said that book was not yours I moved the book below, since it had the other author name also.
Elements of Providence: During the Genesis Flood

Lori Batcheller (lori_batcheller) | 2 comments I just added my new book Rosa Blooms to Goodreads since it wasn't on this site yet, and it now shows up twice, but without the cover. If you could delete the duplicate, and help me with adding the cover I would greatly appreciate it. It's Rosa Blooms by Lori Batcheller.

Done. If you wish, and if all 3 books are yours, you can claim the author profile (https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...) by clicking the "Is this you? Let us know" link on the bottom of that page. It would merge with your current reader profile.


message 896: by Lori (new)

Lori Batcheller (lori_batcheller) | 2 comments Thank you so much! That was quick. Earlier this evening I claimed the author profile and I think I was "told" I'd get an e-mail when it was approved.

I so appreciate such fast service. Enjoy your evening.

Lori

But that is The Enchantress of Florence, not The Temptress of Venice :)

ETA I see that someone merged The Temptress of Venice, should it be flagged?
ETA2 It was a GR employee. It would be nice if they not only edited, but also commented...

They are usually responding to an email, rather than a thread here.

So the employee probably didn't know there was a discussion going on? I see this particular employee is not a member of the Librarians Group, so they couldn't have commented anyway :)


message 900: by Pierre (new)

Pierre Menard | 4 comments Hi,

this book:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
has the same ISBN10 of this one:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
and no other info. The first book should be merged with the second one, and the author "Byatt, Antonia" eliminated.

Thanks!
