Please review and combine my new edition with the original book

[Bram]

I added a new edition of this book: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2....

Please review and combine this with the original.

What's strange is that in the dutch translation the book is number 3 in the series while the original is number 5. Please check if I added the series information correctly.

Thanks

Bram

You can see the cover of this book at http://www.boekenworm.eu/the-x-files-....
I'm not sure if that's a legal source to add it to goodreads though.

Sometimes translated series aren't divvied up the same way as the original. Not sure what you want me to do...? I can set up separate Dutch version of the series, if you can provide me links to the Dutch editions in the order they appeared.

[Bram]

I'm asking because I don't know what the rules/common practice are on goodreads.

In any case the series is as follows: BTW you can get the book cover from the amazon links as well.

1: The X-Files 01: Wij zijn niet Alleen http://www.amazon.co.uk/X-Files-01-zi...

I still need to add 5 en 6, I don't own 7.

Thanks

It's my understanding that we don't duplicate series listings for other language editions UNLESS the series order changed/editions were split differently in the translated version of the series. So if the Dutch editions were released in a different order, I can make a Dutch-specific series listing. But regardless, the translations will be combined with their English counterpart.

[Bram]

OK, that sounds good, thanks.

I'll only post requests to combine the other two books with their English counterparts then without referring to the series.

FYI:

Uploaded the covers for issues 1-5. For the series, is there a Dutch name these go by? The English series for these is "The X-Files: Middle Grade ".

[Bram]

As far as I can tell it is just "The X files".

[Bram]

#6 added as well: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2....

hrmph. that's awfully confusing. maybe it's better not to add the series then... :/

Oh, really? I though we were just adding them as book 1 part 1 of X and so on, so that at least one page will contain all books. At least that is what I have been doing instead of setting up more series.

Why are the series called middle grade? Shouldn't that information be in the description?

These aren't divided in parts; they are published in a different order.
