Dan | 34 comments Please delete this book. It does not exist. For example, a search of the isbn in amazon.com brings up nothing: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

It has appropriate ISBN's so no deletion

In addition, GR considers those published books and should not be deleted

Dan | 34 comments Amazon doesn't and neither do I, but whatever.

Ayshe | 3084 comments amazon.fr seems to do: http://www.amazon.fr/Articles-Novels-...

#210 - done (just want to avoid confusion)

At one point Amazon sold this book. The fact that it no longer doesn't, is no reason for deletion. GR strives to be a database of all books ever published. There are plenty titles in here that are out of print.

Philip (burnnerman) | 5912 comments #211/214 - Also just so you know that book actually is on Amazon, just not the US version. It is here:http://www.amazon.cn/Articles-on-Nove...


message 216: by Dan (new)

Dan | 34 comments Thanks. I understand. Take a wikipedia article, put an isbn on it, sell it, and Good Reads librarians will consider and list it as a book. I bow to the will of the majority.

I wonder if GoodReads has the database space to list every possible book published by all the POD publishers in the following list (http://subjectguides.library.american...) not to mention the new ones cropping up daily?

One final note: is the way Good Reads lists "the book", which in effect perpetuates the republisher's attempt at deception to make it look like a story collection, of concern to anyone but me?

Corrected that for you.

re #218: I hadn't looked closely look at these "books" since now, but read briefly the search for "Hephaestus Books" in the group's posts and it looks like you're not the only one.

as the editon field says 'Kindle' (it's otherwise detail-less) I wanted to separate it with the most popular Kindle edition, but "only a super-librarian can combine or separate a book with more than 10000 reviews."

243 These are different editions (ebook and hardcover) with distinct ISBN numbers - combined with the other editions.


message 244: by Koenraad (new)

Koenraad (koenraadkelemen) | 6990 comments 232 I've never separated anything this big, and I presume this will take a lot of time (and probably resources), so I would like the advise of a staff member or rivka on this one?
