Bea These appear to be the same book. I was unable to add the ISBN13 to the one book.

(X has to be capital in isbn10, previously it was possible to add an isbn10 with a small x; currently a small x is automatically corrected to a capital X when it is added)

João Costa (jamesadams) | 31 comments Regarding "O Alquimista" by Paulo Coelho:

These portuguese editions (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2... https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6...) lack any kind of data that allow identification, I believe that they were created without proper research.
I'm not sure if they were intended to be from Portugal or Brazil, so I don't know if they should be deleted and merge with the most popular edition, or separate and than merge them with the most added portuguese edition?

These edition, that lacks some data, https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2... (9 people add it) seems to be referring to this one https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2... (321 people), they should be merge together

Thanks,
JF

When there are no details, they should be merged into the matching title edition, so the Portuguese. (The most popular is an English edition.) One of the duplicates has a page count that differs from the most popular Portuguese edition. There is a Portuguese edition with a matching page count.
Queued one for merging, which can take some time.
Merged one edition.

ETA: The other was changed from a French to a Portuguese edition. Reverted the changes and queued for merging merged into the matching French cover edition.

The edition that was translated by Kottapalle is also queued for merging merged.

Next time, please separate both editions that need merging.
(For books that are very popular, only superlibrarians can separate, which might be the case for this book.)

Anma Natsu (anmanatsu) | 18 comments Please delete https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

It is a duplicate of https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

I think I accidentally made the duplicate listing when I was first adding my books while trying to put the ISBN on the Kindle addition - just now noticed the two though :(

Karschtl | 5 comments Please delete this book:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

It is exactly the same as this one here:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/8...

(The - wrongfully entered - ISBN-13 of the first book is the same as the ISBN-10 from the second one).

#532 not done, it is the first edition according to the page count. Isbn info added to librarian note (Worldcat mentions a different isbn for the cover; the other isbn seems to be re-used on a different book.) Isbn for first edition is different from second editon isbn.

Can you confirm that isbn is exclusive for the Kindle edition and not used for other ebook distributors/sellers?


message 524: by Anma (new)

Anma Natsu (anmanatsu) | 18 comments Yes, that ISBN is only for the Kindle version. The ePub is 9780996161237 (and listed here: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2... ) :-)


message 525: by Sine (new)

Sine (sinelit) | 86 comments This one is the correct edition with full & correct details: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/7...

This is duplicate of the same book.
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

I would be so happy if you deleted the second one since it is exactly the same book with vast lack of details.


message 526: by Cassandra (new)

Cassandra (cassanj) | 4919 comments It appears that at one time this https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2... had the ISBN for https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3..., and the author removed the ISBN and left a librarian comment about the title. Can it be merged into the edition that now has that ISBN, or must it remain separate? I've not combined, I wasn't sure...

#539 there is a logo on the bottom right of the cover of the edition without an isbn. When it is a bookseller logo, they should be merged. When the logo belongs on the book, it should be kept as an alternate cover edition.
Also, both editions need to be separated from the other editions before merging.

#540 flagged for GR Support

that is a photo of cover instead of a jpeg and therefore that is the sticker of turkish ministry of culture indicating that the book is original. you can merge them and delete the one with sticker.

i also separated the correct one with isbn. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/7... thanks in advance. :)

No delete. Moved the book from your profile. Please start a new thread next time, as it is off-topic, and any librarian can move a book.

Bea I suspect that this book (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...) is a duplicate as the ISBN10 (8176212237) from Amazon (https://www.amazon.co.uk/Elegance-Hed...) points to this book (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...)

João Costa (jamesadams) | 31 comments Can you please merged this edition https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... with this one https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/7... and then recombine it (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...).

And this edition https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... also needs merge with this one https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... and recombine https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/8962.
I know that they have different ISBNs but it was a mistake made by the person who add it, that ISBN belongs to the original edition from which the translation was made.

Thanks,

Cassandra (cassanj) | 4919 comments Someone added this edition with an invalid alpha only ASIN in ISBN13 position, marked as an ebook https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...

Can/should it be merged with ebook or Kindle edition? I haven't separated since I wasn't sure.

#553-2 generally books with isbn's are not deleted. For this invalid, no Portuguese isbn, I agree with you. Merged and recombined.
#554 queued done
#555 merged into ebook edition (as the value in the isbn field not even slighthly resembles an ASIN and the book was added as ebook)
#556-#561 done
#562 has been done by someone else
#563 done
