message 401: by Michael (new)

Michael Bradley (mjbradley88) | 1 comments Can you please delete this book?

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

I created this record in preparation for self-publication since I am the author. Shortly before the publication date, a publisher picked up the book. Since then we have changed the title and cover. It has new ISBNs, and other changes. I tried to update the book information, but at this point I think it would be better for me to create a new record for the book with its new title. Since this one never made it to publication, it doesn't exist and should be deleted. Thanks.

Arenda | 26447 comments #420 queued done
#423 done
#424 no merge. Corrected the author order, changed language to French and combined this Kindle edition with the French ebook edition (and English editions). Both ebook and Kindle are valid edition that do not need merging.

Julie, that should have been merged, rather than just deleted. Please leave requests in this thread for superlibrarians, as the thread title states.

message 421: by Philip (new)

Philip (burnnerman) | 5912 comments #445 - We do not remove editions of a book, and since they are different covers it will stay.

Since you are the author you can set which edition shows as the default when people search for your book and view your Author Page.

Here is how to set your Default Edition.
Set Default Edition

Ayshe | 3084 comments Can this be a duplicate of the default edition: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
I am not quite sure.

Goodreads policy is to keep all published covers on the site, as users want to shelve the cover of the copy they have.


message 426: by Empress (new)

Empress (the_empress) this can be merged into the default edition

Philip (burnnerman) | 5912 comments #455 - Done.

In the future, please do not edit the editions before requesting, because it makes more work for us, to make sure all the edits were appropriate.

Also, do not type in all caps, that is considered yelling which is considered rude.


Gnome Claire *Wishes she was as cool as Gnome Ann* | 18 comments Can this edition
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
be merged into one of the other editions
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

I couldn't separate them because it's the most popular.

Philip (burnnerman) | 5912 comments #458 - Working on Done, but do not separate out just the one edition, you are supposed to separate out the edition that it should be merged with also, because it needs merged with the other edition not just deleted.


message 435: by Philip (last edited Sep 03, 2015 12:41PM) (new)

Philip (burnnerman) | 5912 comments #459 - Working on Done, same as above separate book with edition it needs merged with, not by itself.

message 440: by amaldae (last edited Sep 03, 2015 03:35PM) (new)

amaldae (staticatku) | 593 comments #465 moved to another profile.
#466 combined under the name the book first appeared in, as per policy. The edition seems to be added by a member. If you don't wiah the (unofficial, I assume) Wattpad edition to stay on the site, there might be a chance of getting it removed if you contact staff about it.

Neither required deleting nor a Super's attention, so please post in the appropriate topics next time. ;-)

message 448: by Philip (last edited Sep 04, 2015 01:07PM) (new)

Philip (burnnerman) | 5912 comments #479 - Not a duplicate if you look carefully the info is not the same under the emblem in the bottom left of the cover.

It appears to be the only edition with 4 lines of text below the logo.
