#335 - Title was just wrong, it had valid ISBN, and all other info matched the ISBN/Cover image."


Thank you!

James Stoddard | 11 comments Hello,

Back when I became a Goodread's author, I listed two books that were anthologies where I had a short story appearing. Unfortunately, the ratings on those books are bringing the ratings on my novels down a bit. Would it be possible for you to delete them from my page? They are "Year's Best SF 10" edited by David Hartwell, and "Seasons of Wonder" edited by Paula Guran.

Thanks

James Stoddard

Goodreads does not delete out-of-print books. Please see http://www.goodreads.com/help/show/22... and http://www.goodreads.com/help/show/32...

James Stoddard | 11 comments Rivka,

Not sure I understand. I'm not asking you to completely delete the 2 books from the Goodreads site, but to fix it so they are not connected to my author page, since they are edited anthologies where only a single short story of mine appeared. Sorry if I'm being dense.

Thanks,

James

That would still be a deletion of valid book data. You have contributed to those anthologies, so they should be linked to your author profile.

Thank you (for #360), much obliged!


message 373: by Clara (new)

Clara Coulson (clara_coulson) | 24 comments Someone got around to adding my latest book before I did, and it looks like two people created two separate versions accidentally, each with bits and pieces of the full information.

Here is one:

Shade Chaser

And here is the other:

Shade Chaser

Can these be merged into one page please? (Note: the first listing is correctly linked to the series, while the second listing is not.)

Thank you.

Done

#398 ISBN found for second edition - it's the Netgalley ebook. Both editions also now combined.

Do you have more information? ISBN, publisher, format?

message 381: by Emy (new)

Emy (emypt) | 5037 comments #384 - guessing it should be 9788478984015 but would need to verify whether that cover matches the ISBN(s). The ISBN isn't on Goodreads at least.

Ralph Jones | 2 comments Hi,
I seem to have acquired a few extra books on my authors profile and would appreciate them being taken off:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/8...
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

Thanks :)

Rita Verdial | 17 comments Hi there!

Can you please merge this 2 duplicates?
1 - https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...
2 - https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...

I already separate them from the other editions of the book.
Thanks a lot.

Sammm | 88 comments Temporary work id# 53307595

Please merge the one WITHOUT most information into the one WITH info. Arthur A. Levine Books is an imprint of Scholastic, Inc.; those two should be the same edition.


message 389: by lethe (new)

lethe | 16359 comments A gentle reminder that #294/345 still needs to be done.

I'd really like to be able to close this request :)


message 390: by Marina (new)

Marina de Purpurina  (purpurinamarina) | 3 comments Please delete this book: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...

Is the first book I've uploaded here and accidentally I've done it twice, and also I've put wrong the isbn and other data.

This is the good one that should be preserved: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...

thank you!


message 392: by Larry (new)

Larry Edwards (LarryEdwards) | 1 comments Would someone be so kind as to remove the following books from my Authors Page (since I didn't write them):
1) The Mystery Revealed
2) The Twelve Generations of the Creation
3) Food & Provisions of the Mountain Man

Thank you and Happy Holidays!

Corrected the author names, which moved the books to other profiles. No deletion needed. Please post in another thread if you need this done again; thanks.

Vivek Shanbhag | 1 comments How do I delete a book that appears in my Author page which has the same author name as mine but it is not my book. The name of the book to be deleted from my Author Page is "A Beginner's Introduction to Ayurvedic Medicine" by Vivek Shanbhag


message 398: by Emy (last edited Dec 13, 2016 04:07AM) (new)

Emy (emypt) | 5037 comments #406 moved to a new profile (no deletion).

In future the best way to deal with this is to start a new thread asking for book (with a link to the Goodreads record) to be moved from your profile. This thread is (mostly) for records which have been erroneously added to the site.
