Liralen | 8224 comments https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2... appears to be a duplicate (no ISBN) of https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3... -- though I'm not sure why the titles are different.

Victor Restani de castro | 2 comments This is my first post here, I don't know if I'm in the right place, but I hope I'm.
I have created a duplicate edition to a book, here: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

I was trying to create a new edition to add it to the series, as the existing one isn't apparently linked to it, as well as the next two books from the series, and missing all the books after that, so I wanted to add the books to complete the series, but seems like I couldn't add the edition I've created to the series, and now seems like I can't even delete this duplicate edition I've created, so can someone please delete this duplicate edition I've created? I don't want it to occupy space in the site.

Sorry for the trouble.

Antonomasia | 514 comments Edition with no ISBN (probably added due to fan enthusiasm):
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

It was originally the most popular ed. that had no ISBN & description, but I shifted them so this one could be merged.


message 360: by Renske (new)

Renske | 12222 comments 382 Is done by someone else. Books are added to a series by editing the series page. If you need to have a book added to a series you can start a thread here: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/group...

383 Done. (There was not really a need to move the data, the most popular edition could easily have been merged into the other edition.)

true - that is exactly why I posted in this thread in the first place. I do have librarian privileges myself but not of the Super kind. ;-)

btw, in case you ever come across it again - if a duplicate needs to be merged with the default/most popular edition, it needn't be separated from the rest :-)

You probably meant you combined them. Merging is deleting in GR speak :)

Yes I combined them and I actually mean to merge them. So I need a superlibrarian's help for that. Thanks for the correction!

Rebecca Besser (rebecca_besser) | 6 comments Please remove this title and all reviews associated with it: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

It was previously self-published (years ago) and I now have an agent for the title and she would like it removed.

If there are any issues with this, please message me.

GR does not remove out-of-print titles. Please see https://www.goodreads.com/help/show/3... and https://www.goodreads.com/help/show/2...

(I have no idea how to message an author.)

See the title of this topic. Please leave deletions/merging in this thread to superlibrarians.

Please do not move data from one edition to another that is against GR policy. If editions need merged please post here and do not make modifications to the editions first, that really makes things more complicated to look through.


message 393: by Philip (new)

Philip (burnnerman) | 5912 comments #415 - Those are actually different covers, so they will not be merged.

Ah yes. Correct. Wonder if it has to do with me reverting the last amazon change for one of the editions. Do you want to take a look as I get confused with so many image uploads: https://www.goodreads.com/book/edits/...


message 395: by Philip (last edited Aug 31, 2015 01:04PM) (new)

Philip (burnnerman) | 5912 comments #418 - Will take a look.
I did some checks on the other images, and if I were to make a guess the one without the ASIN is an older cover and the one with the ASIN is a more recent cover. Probably should not be set as the same pub date, so I changed the pub date of the one with the ASIN to the month the record was created, and marked the other as an ACE.


message 397: by Megan (new)

Megan (mkgaud) Hello!

Would it be possible to get these two versions merged?

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

thank you!


message 398: by Philip (new)

Philip (burnnerman) | 5912 comments #421 - Since they are the same book, but different Author names and covers, I added the other Author name as primary, since GR policy states that the Author name a book was originally released under needs to be primary. Then I combined them, not merged them (due to cover and author diff).

Should be deleted. French editions already in the library with the proper author order as it appears on the cover and have been merged with the original English edition.
