The colours on the cover differ"



(referring to #607)

That's just a difference in the quality of photography. The one I linked to is a poorer photograph.

here, this: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6... is a duplicate and should be deleted.

this: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/9... is the correct turkish edition of kite runner and should be merged with it (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/7...)

if the duplicate is deleted, i could do the rest.

Irfan Mirza (Mirzairfan) | 10 comments Hi.

Please delete the following books from my author profile and your database as well because I have unpublished these books and they are not available for sale anywhere.

Thank you

Arenda | 26447 comments #624 not done. Please start a new thread if you need help combining books.

#625 not done. Both are valid editions, different isbn's.

#626/627 not done. The book was printed with an invalid isbn according to a previous librarian note. That invalid isbn was removed. I've re-added the invalid isbn and the librarian note.

#628 not done. GR does not delete books that are no longer available.
Please see https://www.goodreads.com/help/show/2... and https://www.goodreads.com/help/show/3...


message 616: by Sine (new)

Sine (sinelit) | 86 comments about #625: the duplicate's ISBN's belong to the very first edition from a different publisher in 1983: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/8... I corrected that info according to wikipedia and google books. the first publisher does not provide the official info from their website any more.

about newer editions; this is the correct data from publisher's website: http://www.iletisim.com.tr/kitap/sess... and as the publisher printed a new cover, I created an alternate cover edition: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...

But in #625, they are the same book. and I deleted the ISBN's from the duplicate: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/7... as i moved them to the 1983 edition. so, they should be merged in this one: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

Removing isbn's and changing covers is both against policy. Flagged these changes for support.

But they involve wrong data and I provided proof? Okay, whatever.

Margo Hansen | 1 comments Please delete a book from my site that is not mine. "O" by Margo Hansen. I tried deleting a title that was there, but the site wouldn't let me, so I replaced it with the title "O". This needs to be deleted. Thank you.

Please do not remove valid book data. If a book is on your profile that does not belong, please ask to have it moved rather than changing the data.

Sorry, missed the request.

#630/638 done


message 625: by lethe (new)

lethe | 16363 comments Please merge https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6... (1996 reprint)
into the 1995 edition: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/7...
(I have no idea where those ISBNs come from, this is a book club edition and has no ISBNs)

I don't think it can be recombined with anything. It had been combined with the complete editions, but as the librarian's note says, it contains (only) 17 tales.


message 628: by Lobstergirl (new)

Lobstergirl #607 still not done.


message 629: by Jonathon (new)

Jonathon (jonp) | 146 comments Please merge (one entry with 10 digit ISBN and one with 13)

Edition with ISBN10:1481222961 Half Way Home
Edition with ISBN13:9781481222969 Half Way Home

Then recombine

#643/607 same doubt as Paula according to the color of the cover. When in doubt, I don't merge.
#644 covers are different. Moved the isbn10 to the isbn13 edition (that was first on GR) and marked the other as ACE.


message 632: by Arenda (new)

Arenda | 26447 comments #646 are you sure these are the same book? The titles are different.


message 633: by Cassandra (new)

Cassandra (cassanj) | 4919 comments These 2 short stories https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2... and https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2... were only ever published in magazine format before appearing in this book https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3....

Should they be merged into the subsequently published book, NABbed, or left alone?

Moved the books to the correct author profiles. This is not deleting and does not need a super. Please start a new thread another time; thanks.

This short story is an audio exclusive and has not been published outside of audio unless you count the short story being part of an interview from the author on VH1?
