Jessica | 963 comments Should I delete this?

I thought the ISBN looked funny, and after checking I noticed that it's a weird redo of the main edition's ISBN13. Cover is also not different, pub date is the same and there's no format.

Lobstergirl Needs super.

also this one has a suspect ISBN and is probably a duplicate.

Those 2 books have the same author, but different publish date, weird...

It means super-librarian. Sometimes only super-librarians have the authority to do certain changes to books and quotes.

How does one become a super-librarian?

I'm fairly sure that super librarians are hand picked by the staff.

Correct.


message 1011: by Melody (new)

Manually added edition which merged the titles of the first two books in the series. It has been combined.

Thanks!

PAFF!

Jessica | 963 comments Delete me?

It looks like someone tried to cram the ISBN 13 into the 10 slot, but I'm nervous since it has a cover, even though it's not unique.


message 1025: by Jessica (new)

Jessica | 963 comments Wow, there's been a lot of librarian edits on that, and I'm not sure what to make of it. Looks like it originally had the wrong title?


message 1026: by Jessica (new)

Jessica | 963 comments This can be deleted though:

message 1027: by rivka, Former Moderator (new)

rivka | 45177 comments Mod
Got both. Most of the edits on the first one were to other editions. The ISBN-13 is invalid, and when corrected corresponds to another book entirely.

Jessica | 963 comments Thanks rivka :)

My computer's too slow to deal with Grisham.

Lisa Vegan (lisavegan) | 2400 comments Jessica, I got it.

Poof!


message 1035: by Jessica (new)

Jessica | 963 comments This edition needs a super to delete:
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/15...

ISBN is a misentry of a 13 digit into the ten. It matches the ISBN13 of the second most popular edition. So does the cover.


message 1036: by Jessica (new)

Jessica | 963 comments Also, this one needs to get merged with the other ebook edition. ISBN is one digit short:
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/65...


message 1037: by Jessica (new)

Jessica | 963 comments Yikes, this one too:
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/66...
Man, I wish people would double check author spellings before they look for a book. Someone might want to take a look at author "John Sanford" and change to "John Sandford." My poor little netbook takes too long on Sandford's combine page.


message 1038: by Jessica (new)

Jessica | 963 comments Golly, I'm on a roll. Supah please:
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/67...

Also, could a super please take a look at this user:

I keep running across blank book entries from them but since their profile is public I can't go through. I suspect they are a serial adder, and with 2k books shelved I'm a little nervous..


message 1039: by Paula (new)


message 1040: by rivka, Former Moderator (new)

rivka | 45177 comments Mod
Got all through message 1055; merged Sanford/Sandford, and took a preliminary look at our serial adder. Yikes! I'll deal with her plethora of problematic books later. Thanks for the heads-up!


message 1041: by Jessica (new)

Jessica | 963 comments Thanks rivka! I had a feeling that serial adder was going to be a mess. Too bad they have a private profile, otherwise we could all chip in on the work.

Here's another for deletion:

Poof!


JG (Introverted Reader) | 487 comments http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/69...

Part of the isbn-13 is in the isbn-10 space. The other edition is correct. Thanks!

Zing!


message 1047: by Lobstergirl (new)

Lobstergirl http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/77...

Not sure if this is a book.


message 1048: by rivka, Former Moderator (new)

rivka | 45177 comments Mod
Nope. Needs to be combined with the real book, deleted (to move over the reviews), then re-added and NAB'd.


message 1049: by Kimberly (new)

Kimberly (kimberlywithat) | 32 comments Gone!


message 1050: by Kimberly (new)

Kimberly (kimberlywithat) | 32 comments Ok got it.
