Angie (angabel) | 52 comments http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/72... Anyone know if this is legit or if it should be deleted?

To clarify: it's got an isbn but there's no information about the book that I can find online.


message 804: by Sandra (new)

Sandra | 31494 comments Angie, Harperluxe is the Large Print Imprint for Harper Collins. Unfortunately, they don't list that ISBN for either Michael Crichton or anybody else.

My vote is for deletion, however as it is a stock item? for Amazon, it will probably just come back.

If it's deleted, Amazon will simply readd it. It needs to be Not-A-Booked.

They're different editions of the same book so they stay.

Lobstergirl I think this can be deleted. Needs a super.

Yes, There are other editions that can be deleted too. The problem is the most popular is one that says it's abridged, so it's hard to know which editions to combine with - guess those members who add blank editions don't really care which edition is on their shelves. (The book is Crime and Punishment.)


message 814: by Lobstergirl (new)

Lobstergirl Thanks Lisa.


message 816: by Lisa (new)

Lisa Vegan (lisavegan) | 2400 comments I got that one too. Thanks for finding it.

It was a placeholder but now the edition with the ISBN has been added. Thanks!


message 818: by Lisa (new)

Lisa Vegan (lisavegan) | 2400 comments Jessica, Got it. Wow!, a lot of members are looking forward to this book.


message 819: by Jessica (new)

Jessica | 963 comments I'm on of them :) That series is like potato chips. Thanks again Lisa!

Kelly R. | 8 comments Please delete this book
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/66...

It is a duplicate copy of an anthology, but only lists one author/contributor, no isbn, and no cover. It also seems to be combined correctly, but I would be more comfortable if someone else made sure before it is deleted.

Thanks.


message 821: by Cait (new)

Cait (tigercait) | 4988 comments That looked fine, Kelly! I've deleted it.

Chichipio | 34 comments This needs a super. Unless I'm mistaken, in which case I need a smack on the head. So, let's hope I got it right :)

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

appears to be a placeholder, and several editions are now out.


message 826: by Lisa (new)

Lisa Vegan (lisavegan) | 2400 comments I got the last two.


message 827: by Sandra (new)

Sandra | 31494 comments Thanks Lisa.


message 828: by Sandra (new)

Sandra | 31494 comments Hi Super Libs, I've come across 2 Emma Holly stories listed, but they belong to anthologies. I've combined them with the relevant anthologies but they have too many reviews for me to delete. Please do your thing:

message 831: by Paula (new)

Paula (paulaan) | 7014 comments Could a Super delete these books / profile as none of the "books" exist and it looks like a "spam" account.

I have flagged the profile



message 832: by Lisa (last edited Jan 23, 2010 07:47AM) (new)

Lisa Vegan (lisavegan) | 2400 comments Paula,

No link?

And, no, supers cannot delete a member profile. Only Goodreads staff can do that. Flagging should have done the trick; when Goodreads sees the flagged profile, my hunch is they will delete it.

As far as the fake books go, please send a link to the profile so we can see the items shelved.

Thanks.


message 833: by Paula (new)

Paula (paulaan) | 7014 comments Here is the link - (thought I could multi task!)

My "delete profile" was aimed at rivka, but I flagged in case she did not appear today :)


message 834: by Cait (new)

Cait (tigercait) | 4988 comments Bizarrely, the author whose website is given by all of these books is already a GR author and appears to have nothing to do with this....


message 835: by Lisa (new)

Lisa Vegan (lisavegan) | 2400 comments Paula, Rivka doesn't work Saturdays. She's sometimes back on Saturday evenings and might see it then.

I'm about to delete the spammer. One of y'all want to kill the "books" and "author"?

Indeed. From Friday sunset through Saturday full dark is my Sabbath. And I have been known to not turn the computer back on immediately afterward. ;)

Yet, here you are. ;-) Happy to see you!

Got it.


message 841: by Laura (new)

Laura | 101 comments I need the help of a super-librarian in order to delete this book:

http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/76...

by adding the ISBN, I found out the book is already into GR system. Thanks.


message 842: by Lisa (new)

Lisa Vegan (lisavegan) | 2400 comments Okay, Laura. I combined it with the other edition and deleted it.


message 843: by Laura (new)

Laura | 101 comments thank you so much Lisa!!

Got the first two; looking at the last one in more detail.

rivka | 45177 comments Mod
Untangled that one. Non-matching ISBN-10/13s had to be fixed.


message 848: by Cait (new)

Cait (tigercait) | 4988 comments No, it looks like those are both valid books, Ralph:

http://openlibrary.org/b/OL1475301M/p...

Although it's frustrating that they were manually entered with so little information.

Okie dokie. I'll try and fix them up a bit when I get home.

ETA: Are there actually two? I don't see anything about the second volume...


message 850: by Cait (new)

Cait (tigercait) | 4988 comments The OpenLibrary record said two volumes, so it seemed like a reasonable extrapolation. Please do check up on it for better information, though! And congrats for spotting it in the first place. :)
