Francisco Merino-Casallo (fmerinocasallo) | 7 comments Hi there!

Could you please combine these editions of the same book?

1. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...
2. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...


I've just created the first one clicking on the "Manually add a book" button but I don't know how to mark it as an edition of the second one. Have I done something wrong? I see now there is an "Add a New Edition" button, Should I use this instead of adding new editions as new books?


Thanks in advance :)

Shannon (pokey36) | 66 comments Done Fancisco and yes it's easier if you use the Add a New Edition button. It takes away the need to combine them afterwards. :)

John Brabson | 1 comments This book ( https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... ) has Charles P. Wohlforth listed as the author, and it should be Eric Tyson. It should then be combined with https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... . Thanks in advance.

Shannon (pokey36) | 66 comments #457 done, John. (I should buy that book!) :)

mirada | 239 comments Please, combine these two books:

This one: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...

With this one: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

And also change publication date: right now is on sale here in Spain. I think september is the release date for international sales, or maybe for US market.

You can check it at amazon Spain: https://www.amazon.es/gp/product/8490...

Moved all editions to the correct profile. (They are all valid editions, no duplicates.)

Thank you lethe. It appears another one must be removed from this "Kevin Wilson" profile:

https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...

Bomber Boys: The Ruhr, the Dambusters and Bloody Berlin

It currently is correctly listed under the real author's name.

I merged a couple of them, the rest need a super librarian. I don't understand how some of them have 2 editions with identical ASINs though; weird.

One of the ASIN's is in the isbn13 field.

Abcdarian | 26579 comments Ah, that would do it. Thanks Arenda.

They are the most popular books in the database, the "defaults" so to speak :)

No, they were the first books added to the database, when the very early first tests were being run, before the site went fully live.

Book #1: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1 (had just come out at the time)
Book #2: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2
Book #3: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3
Book #4: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4
Book #5: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5
etc.

HP #7 was not out yet, but book #9 is as close as was possible in 2006.

Ah, interesting! I didn't know they really had one-digit IDs.

Sorry for spreading false information :)
