Arenda | 26447 comments #712 Ayshe wrote: "So it should be combined back to the main work then (I had separated that one from the main wok and the other from the vol.2 editions)? It counts as two volumes using same ISBN even though it was pre-ISBN?"

If it was only available as a set at the time, there should be one listing for the 2-volume-set, combined with the complete book.
I had already recombined it with the volume-2-of-2 editions.

The number of pages listed is a separate issue, see this comment from Rivka to explain: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...


Elizabeth (Alaska) no details, but I think this is what you call a "reverse merge" as it has more adds than the other edition

please recombine with:

thank you - and Happy New Year!

Ann Denton | 22 comments There is a book on my author page that is not mine. The author of this book has my exact name. Can this book be removed from my page? The title of the book to be removed is "Melt"

Ayshe | 3084 comments https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... and https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2... (no details besides the translators) can be merged to
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... but I can't separate it as only super-librarians can separate editions with that many reviews.

Nadeschda | 19 comments #718: Done - so far only visible when you're on the title itself. It should take a bit till it's vanished from the original site yet I guess.

P.S. At least it got now this ID for a new author's site: https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...

My problem now is (after checking the author's homepage) that the author has already an GR profile page:
https://www.goodreads.com/user/show/6...

Am trying to find out how to combine both yet since ID 62857894 is not an author's page...?

I don't think you can: it's user profile, not author one. If Ann Denton wishes to claim it, then she can do so by clicking on the "Is this you? Let us know." link: https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...

Delete after transferring any relevant data to other edition. Also move better quality jpeg cover to remaining ppk ed.


message 719: by Gary (last edited Jan 03, 2017 07:30AM) (new)

Gary H | 56 comments This one should be deleted, I think. No ISBN nor ASIN.
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
It's obviously a duplicate of this:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

I suggest this one is deleted as well:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...?
It's a single story pulled from this anthology, but there is no indication that the story has ever been published on its own.

message 720: by Bea (new)

Bea I added this book (The Portrait of a Lady) since I could not determine the format. I did contact Hoopla to get the information and was told that they do not provide that info at this time. As I suspect it is already listed on GR either as audio CD (ISBN13 9781633796898) or as MP3 CD (ISBN13 9781633796935). Since Hoopla responded that MP3 was for movies, I suspect they use the audio CD for the audiobook.

So...would a senior librarian merge my book with the audio CD, please?

Jamie | 1 comments Please delete this fanfiction Auntie Bella and His Brother's Keeper


message 726: by C (new)

C (hipkec) For the Drew Hayes book Forging Hephaestus, there is the correct book (first link below) and a duplicate book, attributed to an incorrect author (second link below). I would like to suggest that the second book be completely deleted or at least correctly attributed.

1) https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3... - correct
2) https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3... - duplicate with incorrect author information

If you are the author, you will need to use the Contact Us link on the Help page to make that request.

Corrected the author name and combined- no deletion, as the pbk is a valid edition.

Please merge the one without ISBN into the one that has the info. Thanks! =D

Reminder; any super-librarian that is patient enough, #426 remains to be processed. Thanks!


message 742: by André (new)

André Caniato (vardamir) | 143 comments 1. Two duplicates: https://www.goodreads.com/work/editio...
Please re-combine it with Op zee by the same author.

2. One duplicate: https://www.goodreads.com/work/editio...
Please re-combine it with The Kreutzer Sonata by the same author.

Thanks a lot in advance!

#720 not done; isbn removal reverted
#723-724 done
#726 not done; wondering if it is also published with the cropped cover, as that is the same cover as the publisher has listed: http://globolivros.globo.com/livros/k...
#727-729 done
#731-734 done
#735 Looking at Hoopla it seems that those are digital audiobooks, so should not be merged into a CD edition I think.
#736 done
#738 done
#739 was already done
#741 Moved the valid Kindle edition to the correct author profile. Merged the duplicate edition that already was on the right profile.
#743 flagged for Support
#744-747 done
#749 done
#752 Done. Please don't remove a truncated isbn before requesting a merge. Makes it only more difficult to determine if it is a valid merge.
#753-754 done
#755 separated, merged and recombined.
#756-758 done

As I said before: Yes, the book has a valid ISBN, however that number doesn't match to "The Godfather" edition at all.

No, there isn't any edition with a cropped cover. In fact, there is only two editions of that book by this author (Hilda Hilst): one very old and rare without ISBN, and the one with ISBN13: 9788525035431.

Marcos Kopschitz | 122 comments Please merge these two:
https://www.goodreads.com/work/editio...
Already separated and combined. Will recombine and check all resulting information afterwards.

Same edition, one has ISBN-13: 9788535912678
the other has ISBN-10: 8535912673

Thank you! Happy 2017!
