Philip (burnnerman) | 5912 comments #108 - Done.

1st book has been merged.

2nd book that is the only edition with a grey background, so I left it alone.

Thanks! Should the 2nd one (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...) not be listed as an alternate cover edition, since it's being kept solely for the cover with no other identifying information (ISBN)? Just curious...


message 107: by Philip (new)

Philip (burnnerman) | 5912 comments #111 - Normally I would say so, but hard to mark it one without knowing which it was for, or if maybe it was even for an edition that did not have an ISBN.

Ok, thanks!


message 109: by Philip (new)

Philip (burnnerman) | 5912 comments #113 - I added a librarian note, that it was either an ACE or did not have an ISBN, to provide a little less confusion.

Is the same as the one it's attached to, but without the dustjacket. And recombine.

message 113: by Philip (new)

Philip (burnnerman) | 5912 comments #116 - Combined not merged/deleted, since that is a unique cover the black logo on the cover has extra text on that cover that the other one does not.


message 114: by Arenda (new)

Arenda | 26447 comments #115 The spine on the one with the dustjacket looks blue at the bottom where the dustjacket is missing, not the same I think.

Lucie Smoker | 2 comments Thanks for this thread. Please delete https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

I cannot figure out how to be listed as a contributor (as I am on Amazon) to this book: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

I will be in another anthology this spring so if there's a way to do this on my own, please let me know.

With much appreciation for your work!

rachel, x (typedtruths) | 1368 comments #125 - Someone got to the deleting part but didn't comment. I added you as a contributor. You're meant to start new threads for such requests though (this thread is for super librarians and deletions/merges only) - next time please start a new thread.

Pilar Pascual (pilarpascual) | 1 comments Please, delete this book from my profile:

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


message 135: by Renske (new)

Renske | 12222 comments 140 That is a valid book and should not be deleted.
If you want to claim a profile but that is not your book, you should first add your book. This group can help to get the right book on the right profile and then you can claim the right profile.


message 136: by Timo (new)

Timo | 6 comments I need some super-librarian help with tidying up the duplicates of the German Elfen Lied editions.

I've removed some duplicates already but now there's still one per volume left. In preparation I've already combined them so please just delete the following duplicates and they will merge on the "good" edition:

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6...
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...,
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

Please note that the German publications are all omnibus releases, do not combine them afterwards.

Thanks!

Please don't move isbn's between editions.
#143 done
#144 the paperback edition is in a giveaway. I don't know if merging a Kindle edition is messing with the giveaway.

In preparation for the merging I moved all information to the most popular edition. Would the merging have done that anyway and it was not necessary?

It doesn't matter which is the most popular.
You can update the valid edition (= with isbn). (Info like publisher, page count are not transferred when merging.)
Transferring isbn's make it more difficult to see if merging the duplicate is in order, of if someone has been vandalising editions.

Ok, I'll keep that in mind for future edits.

Hazard | 91 comments https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2... is a duplicate of https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
the latter book's ISBN-10 is incorrect on last digit, thus the duplication
