Melody (runningtune) | 13300 comments Started it. But I think Paula is finishing. Edit ... Well maybe not. I finished.


message 556: by Lorraine (new)

Lorraine Shorter | 2 comments Please can you delete this book. My computer had a glitch while I was uploading the cover and I ended up with two versions. This one is incomplete and not needed: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

I have merged it with the correct version, but can't find a way to delete it completely.

This version with the cover image should stay: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

Thank you.

Not sure if it should be deleted, but I went into the record to verify the ISBN, and the check digit on the ISBN13 was wrong. I corrected the check digit and added the ISBN10 but this ISBN is not on Worldcat nor can I see it on Google search.

So before a book can be deleted, it has to be separated from the other book..? There are two versions of the same edition, only the other has a cover and some info the other one doesn´t. Will the one with no cover be deleted? And what do I do before posting it here?


message 588: by Emy (new)

Emy (emypt) | 5037 comments Anastasia - The Book Reader

If there are more than two editions, then we need to make sure that the duplicate is merged into the correct record. In practice, we don't delete records as that would completely lose any reviews or ratings. Instead we actually merge them into another record (the "target"), which transfers all the reviews etc. from the bad record onto the correct one.

To make sure that merge happens between the same records, we have to make sure that the bad record is only combined with it's correct version and no other record. Once the merge has gone through, we can combine the remaining record with the original stack of records so that once again they all show as editions of each other.

Anastasia aka Taurendil (theanastasia) | 11 comments There are no other editions of the book, just one and that is here two times. They are here if you want to see:

message 591: by Fred (new)

Fred (flybrariman) | 5 comments Dear Super-Librarians: I'm just a regular librarian, and author Dawn Robertson https://www.goodreads.com/author/show..., has contacted me to delete two forthcoming books she's decided she's not going to publish:
River https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
Levi's Story https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

Is this sufficient information? Please let me know if there's anything else you need, or if I can otherwise be of assistance.

The year's because it was reprinted. The ISBNs stand for the same book (one 10, one 13).
Thanks in advance!

given the number of reviews, i'm thinking 608 should be merged with something... just not sure which volume?

I'm not sure with what it should be merged. You can go with Attack on Titan, Volume 01 or Attack on Titan: Colossal Edition 1
