vicki_girl | 2764 comments What do we do about Not-a-Books with ratings? The example below has two ratings.

http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/47...

I'm afraid if I NAB it, the members will have NOT A BOOK on their shelves. Should it be deleted, then re-imorted, and then NAB'd?

That what I would suggest.


message 603: by vicki_girl (new)

vicki_girl | 2764 comments Since there is only one "edition", a super will have to get it.

FYI, there are a number of listings under the author Upper Deck that all probably need the same treatment.

Melody (runningtune) | 13300 comments I would merge it with Tales of Desperaux (the book) and then delete it and then re import it and then NAB


message 605: by Melody (new)

Melody (runningtune) | 13300 comments I took care of that one


message 606: by vicki_girl (new)

vicki_girl | 2764 comments I think this edition can go.

http://www.goodreads.com/book/edit/31...

It does not appear to have any unique information.

Zap!


message 608: by Jessica (new)

Jessica | 963 comments Need a super to combine and delete this one. I'd combine it myself, but my computer is slow and I know Iris Johansen written a bajillion books.

http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/61...

Adder spelled her name wrong, I did correct that.


message 609: by Lisa (new)

Lisa Vegan (lisavegan) | 2400 comments Jessica, I got it, and now I'll go to work on that author. Thanks.


message 610: by Jessica (new)

Jessica | 963 comments Heh, guess I opened a can of worms :D


message 611: by Jessica (new)

Jessica | 963 comments This one also needs some super powers of deletion

message 612: by Melody (new)

Melody (runningtune) | 13300 comments Gone


message 613: by Jessica (new)

Jessica | 963 comments Thanks Melody, and thanks Lisa :)


message 614: by Angie (new)

Angie (angabel) | 52 comments I am assuming that this book needs deleted: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/66...

I had gone in to edit the title and noticed that there is another 2008 Houghton Mifflin hardcover edition, and I doubt the company would produce two hardcover editions of the book in the same year.


message 615: by Lisa (new)

Lisa Vegan (lisavegan) | 2400 comments Angie, I got it, and gave the manual adder the benefit of the doubt about the number of pages.


message 616: by Angie (new)

Angie (angabel) | 52 comments Thanks Lisa!


message 617: by vicki_girl (new)

vicki_girl | 2764 comments There appears to be a duplicate of John Le Carre's "A Perfect Spy". I have separated it out and combined with its twin.

http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/66...


message 618: by Melody (new)

Melody (runningtune) | 13300 comments I deleted it - and am trying to combine the remaining edition back with the others, however there seems to be a combining issue going on in goodreads for me. Continues to process without any action.


message 619: by Melody (new)

Melody (runningtune) | 13300 comments I got it to merge too


message 621: by Lisa (new)

Lisa Vegan (lisavegan) | 2400 comments Vicki, I got the last one, but in the future, please send the link to the book's page and not to the edit book page. Thanks!


message 622: by Cassie (new)

Cassie (cassielo) | 14 comments I combined this. Please delete.
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/51...


message 623: by Lisa (new)

Lisa Vegan (lisavegan) | 2400 comments C, Deleted.


message 624: by Cassie (new)

Cassie (cassielo) | 14 comments So quick! Thanks.


message 625: by Devon (new)

Devon Rhodes (devonrhodes) | 4 comments This duplicate needs deleted:

http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/71...


message 626: by Melody (new)

Melody (runningtune) | 13300 comments I don't believe it is a duplicate. I corrected the way the author's name was entered and merged it with the other edition. One is an ebook and the other a paperback.


message 627: by Devon (new)

Devon Rhodes (devonrhodes) | 4 comments Thanks Melody, that's why I didn't attempt anything myself.


message 628: by Jessica (new)

Jessica | 963 comments I'm pretty sure this one needs to be deleted, even with a shopping 145 adds. The info matches another edition that has an ISBN.

http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/14...




message 629: by Lisa (new)

Lisa Vegan (lisavegan) | 2400 comments Jessica, You are correct. All fixed.


message 630: by Jessica (new)

Jessica | 963 comments Thanks Lisa. I thought I was hallucinating. I guess it was one of those that took a long time to get into the system or something.


message 631: by vicki_girl (last edited Dec 04, 2009 07:38AM) (new)

vicki_girl | 2764 comments Please delete this book. It is a placeholder for a book that now has an ISBN (already combined).

http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/68...


message 632: by Lisa (new)

Lisa Vegan (lisavegan) | 2400 comments Vicki, Thanks. Deleted.


message 633: by Caroline (new)

Caroline | 58 comments Another placeholder that now has an ISBN edition combined, and so can be deleted:

http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/72...


message 634: by Lisa (last edited Dec 04, 2009 08:47PM) (new)

Lisa Vegan (lisavegan) | 2400 comments Ooh, Will add it to my shelves! The placeholder is gone.

ETA: I wonder what the title will be?!


message 635: by Paula (new)

Paula (paulaan) | 7014 comments Needs a super to delete please:

http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/69...


message 636: by Melody (new)

Melody (runningtune) | 13300 comments OK got it


message 637: by Jessica (new)

Jessica | 963 comments http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/57...

Need a super to delete this one. User tried to put the 13 digit ISBN in the 10 digit one (entry matches another edition)


message 638: by jenjn79 (new)

jenjn79 | 564 comments Got it, Jessica!

And jeez...there were 4 editions of that book, and only 1 was valid. Deleted all but the real one.


message 639: by Jessica (new)

Jessica | 963 comments Really? I didn't even notice the others!


message 640: by Jessica (new)

Jessica | 963 comments Can someone help me figure out what this is? I can't figure it out.

This, I would assume.


message 642: by Jessica (new)

Jessica | 963 comments Weird, I did a search for Freya Stark Izzard and only the one I was working on popped up. Thanks!!


message 643: by Cait (new)

Cait (tigercait) | 4988 comments I went outside of GR to get an ISBN, so I might have pulled in the record just now!


message 644: by Angie (new)

Angie (angabel) | 52 comments http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/60...

I pulled this in from the non-umlated Pema Chodron, and it doesn't have any information, nor is the title right.

Ditto these: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/66...

http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/66...

If these should be combined, let me know. They appear (at least to me) to be added to the system, duplicates, without more information.


message 645: by Melody (new)

Melody (runningtune) | 13300 comments I combined them with their correct edition - deleted the duplicate edition - and merged them back together.
