I have flagged the creation of the series, which was done (and added to) by a GR author (how is that even possible!?).Not deleted it yet, because I don't know if Support will be able to check up on it if the series is gone.
Mod
Yes. The edit remains in the log, so the flag stays too.
Thanks. When I've moved them to the edition field (many of them are already done), I'll delete the series.

quick question, is this a caching issue or something that still needs title clean up?https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
Taylor Maid (Dreamspun Desires Book 6) when it was actually the 5th book in the collection
The latter. I hadn't checked all editions, just the ebooks on the series page (which didn't have the collection title added to the title field).
in that case I'll post additional clean up necessary in this topic if that's ok.Title update & edition language from Eng to French needed: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

That should get them fairly consistent.

#9 done.(Asked for a merger of a duplicate Audible edition of Undercover Boyfriend in the delete thread.)
Hello!These two books are listed as a series, when in fact, they are standalones. I had contacted Amazon about the same issue a while back but they hadn't changed it. The (Finding Love) should be deleted as they are standalones.

Can you help with this? Thanks in advance!

Yes, and I'm checking all the editions, not just the links you posted :-)
https://www.goodreads.com/series/1809... isn't a series, it's a publisher imprint/collection of reissues of some classic science fiction books that otherwise have nothing to do with each other (not even a shared "universe" or original publisher).
#18 It was created by an employee...... and has been deleted by someone.
#10 finished (thanks for your patience :-) )

Is not and never was a series. It's an imprint. Some librarians understood that and tried to follow the manual by utilizing the edition field to designate the imprint. Others clearly did not. A user asked for the series numbering to be corrected since the series isn't in the correct order, which is when I pointed out it's not even a series.
