Jez (typesetjez) | 2 comments Please delete: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

This is a duplicate and has no information beyond the title and author. Judging by the cover the user chose, I assume this is supposed to be this edition: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

Roberta (driope) | 45 comments Please delete https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

I think it's a copy of https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... (based on publisher and publishing data)

Emy (emypt) | 5037 comments #51 - separating to combine and merge. Should be gone shortly - I'll recombine.
#52 - found a 2011 edition that isn't already on the system, so fixing missing data (since the edition you identified had more than one text).


message 55: by Emy (new)

Emy (emypt) | 5037 comments #53 - I would suggest contacting Support using this link: https://www.goodreads.com/about/conta...

In this situation due to the number of adds, it would need a staff member - we're volunteers :)

Thanks Amy. I didn't know I'm allowed to change details such as the publisher when I find half-empty editions.

Empress (the_empress) Please merge this edition into this

You can recombine with "let me tell you a story".

Please remember to separate out the two editions for merging before posting in this thread. Even if it appears to have no reviews.

I didn't combine back.

into these:

Alishea | 30 comments On this one, it looks like there may be a couple of doubles. Could someone work with the author to figure them out?

N.D. Taylor (ndtaylor) We recently changed the book blurb and cover and what I've accidentally done, is make a new book entry altogether.

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

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

Could someone please remove the additional book.


message 70: by Fran (new)

Fran (narflet) | 129 comments This is the most popular edition, but it's incomplete: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

This is the fully correct edition (with ISBNs): https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

So, one needs to go. I'm sure you Supers know best what to do. Ta! :)


message 71: by Renske (new)

Renske | 12298 comments 69 Combined with the other editions, no need to delete it.

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

It's the same one as this

message 77: by Deon (new)

Deon (deonva) | 3719 comments 76, just needed combined, it had a valid ISBN, done


message 78: by Fran (new)

Fran (narflet) | 129 comments Dupe of most popular edition, please delete: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

Ta!


message 79: by Ainoa (new)

Ainoa (queenoferebor) | 5 comments 76 is a duplicate of the most popular edition. There is just one English paperback edition of that book. Could you check it again, please?

Deon (deonva) | 3719 comments 76/79
one edition is an ebook, with an ISBN
other is a paperback, with an ISBN


message 82: by Ainoa (new)

Ainoa (queenoferebor) | 5 comments 76/79 has been changed to ebook format in the last 30 minutes according to the librarian change log. Before that, both were marked as the same paperback edition which lead to my mistake, I guess. Thank you.


message 83: by Andrea (new)

Andrea (andrea_b) | 571 comments please merge https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... (isbn10 in isbn 13 field) with main edition (correct isbn10)

Cândido Neto (kiboaneto) | 2 comments The brazilian edition of "The Trial" (Kafka, F) is duplicated.
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6...
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

The second link could be deleted (or merged).

message 94: by Christopher (new)

Christopher (christopherc-reader) | 5 comments This book should be deleted:

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

It was added by someone based on hazy memories, referrs to no particular print edition, and it even gets the author wrong (Uncle Vanya was written by Anton Chekov).

All of the reviews left by people who didn’t even look carefully at what they were adding to their shelves should be moved to this Goodreads record:

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

Re: 87, you're right, sorry about that. Didn't take notice of the cover difference. Will put the other one as an ACE.
